FA taking no further action against Hayes for her pushing the Arsenal manager, nothing said on whether Eidevall will receive further punishment for his 'male aggression'.

Classy response from Hayes today in her pre match press conference, no apology but a moving few lines from a poem.
When questioned about the male aggression incident in her press conference this afternoon, Hayes responded by revealing a conversation she had had with her young son about the clash followed by an excerpt from a poem.
The 47-year-old said: "My son said to me after the game, 'Mummy, when you push someone in school you're asked to go and take time out'.
"I said to him, 'You know what darling, you can't meet aggression with aggression, all you can do is tell the teacher, all you can do is go and explain why you think something's unfair. That's all you can do.'
"You cannot meet male aggression with aggression. I thought it was a really good conversation to have with my son after the final."
Asked whether she stood by everything she said after the game, Hayes read four lines from Robert Frost's Choose Something Like a Star poem: "So when at times the mob is swayed, to carry praise and blame too far, we may choose somewhere like a star, to stay our minds on and be staid."
Questioned what she meant by the poem, she replied: "I've had a fantastic break, I've already explained an important analogy with my son and the lessons learned and my focus is on moving forward. I've had time to look at my star."
It was confirmed last week that Hayes would face no further action from the Football Association over the clash.
Hayes said: "Of course it's not right to meet aggression with aggression. I can only control my behaviours and I've reflected on that.
"Next time I need to listen to my son's advice and go to the teacher if I've got anything to say."
She added on reaching out to Eidevall: "We don't play Arsenal, we don't have each other's telephone numbers, we'd have no reason to do that but I'm sure when I take the biggest job in football and become the boss of the USA we will have conversations.
"Until the end of the season, my focus is on Chelsea.

Sad to see following this unfortunate event Chelsea have followed their League Cup loss with and FA Cup semi loss, CL semi loss, and defeat in the league last night almost certainly ending their hopes of any silverware from looking at a historic quadruple only a month ago.

I’d heard rumours that the stance on the statue have changed, for better or worse I don’t know
