 Football | Faria Alam tells of shock at FA plot
Faria Alam, the secretary who sparked a crisis at the Football Association, yesterday claimed she was told she would be paid to reveal all about Sven-Goran Eriksson as part of a plot to keep her fling with the FA's former chief executive Mark Palios out of the papers.
But in interviews in the News of the World and the Mail on Sunday, Ms Alam, 38, admitted she had failed to tell the truth about her affair with Mr Eriksson when she was grilled by the FA in a crisis meeting, after which bosses drafted a strongly worded denial.
According to Ms Alam, she was warned of the exposure of her affair with Mr Eriksson when her boss, now the acting chief executive, David Davies, called her on the Saturday before the story broke.

Now, it has come out that Faria was sending e-mails (the sex was 'fantastic', 'very passionate' etc) to her friends, boasting that she was sleeping not only with Eriksson but also with his boss, Mark Palios, the FA’s chief executive.
Faria was born in 1966 in Dhaka, one of four children.
Without a job and little money, Faria may be forced to do a 'kiss and tell' but in the long run that would make it even harder for her to pick up the fragments of a shattered life.

 Faria Alam
Faria Alam knows how to deal with a powerful man, even if it means a public humiliation, so Dennis Rodman should really have known better than to try and work his wily charms on her…they might have worked on Jodie, Chantelle and Traci but Faria was never going to be so easily swayed.
With Faria and Jodie explaining why they're famous, Preston bouncing around to Boys Will Be Boys, Rula giving a bit of Hamlet her all and Maggot and Pete performing their respective hits, Chantelle had a lot to live up to and her show didn't convince many of the celebs.
Faria and George were treated to an insight in to Preston's suspicions that Chantelle was a Big Brother plant, an idea confirmed by George's comment that she'd been rather confused about which chart position her 'hit single' had reached.

 Telegraph | Sport | Writing was on the wall after the Faria Alam affair
The Faria Alam scandal underlines the fact that it was the revelation of her affair with Sven-Goran Eriksson that marked the moment when it became clear to the Football Association that the England manager had to go.
But the Faria Alam affair in the course of a calamitous week in Aug 2004 destroyed all this and made the FA hierarchy realise how ignorant they were of their senior employees' private lives and the problems this could cause them.
It was justified on the grounds that the FA had a duty of care to their employees, and Alam merited extra protection because she was a woman and she was an ethnic minority.

Meanwhile, Ms Alam did a Princess Di on viewers, when she appeared on a national channel and sobbed her way through the titillating revelations, as millions stayed glued to their TV sets, hanging on to her every word.
Yes, Alam is shrewdly playing the oppressed Bangladeshi woman card (wicked uncles marrying her off to an unworthy lout when she was a mere teenager).
Alam’s account of their energetic coupling on a grand staircase, en route to the master bedroom, must have fired the tired imagination of countless men and women for whom such trysts only occur in pornographic films.
