Dyke: FA council too white, too male

"Overwhelmingly male and overwhelmingly white," Football Association chairman Greg Dyke said of his own organization's council on Saturday, saying the governing body must change. In a pre-recorded video message to the Football Supporters Federation, former BBC director-general Dyke said the governing body was in danger of becoming "irrelevant". "If you look at who's supporting, who's playing football and then you look at the FA Council - it doesn't represent them," Dyke was quoted as saying on the BBC.
