Categorised under the topic of Sports.
That this House is bitterly disappointed that England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have all failed to qualify for the 2008 European football championships; is utterly depressed at the prospect of the lack of British interest in that competition; calls upon the football associations of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to reinstate the home internationals for the summer of 2008 in order to provide competitive international matches for British fans; and furthermore, with regard to England, urges the Football Association to appoint a manager of the calibre of Jose Mourinho to take charge of these and future matches.
This motion has been signed by a total of 14 MPs.
