Last night, the Telegraph ran an exclusive story claiming that England manager Sam Allardyce had given advice to 'businessmen' on how to 'get around' FA rules on player transfers.
Allardyce was taped on camera finalising a £400,000 deal while on a trip from Singapore to Hong Kong. Unbeknownst to Big Sam, the businessmen were undercover journos looking to put one over on the former Sunderland boss.
The journos had been conducting an investigation into footballing corruption and bribery in Britain for 10 months.
Now, The Times reports that FA chairman Greg Clarke, 'extremely disturbed' by the fiasco, is holding a crisis meeting with chief executive Martin Glenn about Allardyce's future as England manager.

They also report that the FA governing body will promptly sack Allardyce later today having summoned him to Wembley.
