Read our privacy policy Former Football Association chief executive Adam Crozier today spoke out against the decision to renew Fabio Capello's contract on the eve of this summer's World Cup. The decision has been questioned following England's poor performance in South Africa, and Mr Crozier told BBC Radio 4's Today programme he would not have taken such action. While insisting that Capello remains a "world-class coach", Mr Crozier pointed out the differences between club and national team management - particularly a lack of time with players. Mr Crozier, who spent two and a half years as FA chief executive from 2000 and now holds the same position with ITV, also said the FA was "not having a great time" at present.
