BBC commentator Bob Ballard, who chaired the event, criticised the FA and Chelsea for allowing the appointment of Phil Scolari as Chelsea manager.
Brazilian Scolari had said that he would never have a gay player on his team, which is against the FA's equal treatment rules.
Accusing the FA of double standards, Ballard said that if Scolari had said he would kick out black or Jewish players he would have never been appointed at Chelsea.

What is it with the older generation of footballer and hot shots? Homophobic, xenophobic and just very much out of touch. Has football ended up in a rough alley where normal people wouldnt go normally???
