	Thought for the Week (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		I’m not thinking of the planets, but of the worlds we live in, the worlds of work and relaxation, loving and listening, power and authority, joy and pain, worship and prayer.
		They generally tend to go on regardless of “Svengate”, Big Brother, Iraq and by-elections.
		There may be new social orders emerging, but our desires to love and be loved, to share and receive, reflect the timeless nature of what it means to be human.

		I can’t believe how the press and the Football Association are going totally overboard because England coach Sven-Goran Eriksson has been getting jiggy with one of the FA’s secretary’s.
		Its because in this PC world we live anyone who is known to more than 12 people has to live a squeeky clean Christian life otherwise all the sad bastards who have never had an adventure in their life get upset.

	Football \| FA must pick Apple lessons for brand new start
		The FA is wobbling like a punch-drunk boxer, reeling as a merciless press lay blow after blow recounting every sordid detail of the Svengate affair.
		The actions the FA takes in the next days and weeks will have to be big and exciting enough to make people forget Svengate and concentrate on the future of the FA.
		The FA can survive this crisis if it acts quickly and decisively to fix the puncture that is fast deflating it.

	'Svengate' has tabloids looking for penalties - Soccer - www.theage.com.au
		A week ago, it doubled up its scoop by revealing that not only had Sven been bedding Alam but so had Sven's boss, the FA's chief executive Mark Palios, within the same six-month period.
		"Svengate" (sigh) might have stayed in tabloid-land and fizzled out over time had the FA not repeatedly denied that Sven had been up to his old tricks.
		Sven has protested his innocence: "I have at no time either categorically confirmed or denied any relationship with Ms Faria Alam," he said in a statement released on Thursday.

	Observer \| Why Sven is played up front
		Scrutiny of the sex life of a public figure is standard tabloid fare, but the FA's attempt to bury the story turned it into a full-blown scandal.
		It would probably have made the front of most papers in any era, but the prominence afforded to Svengate is indicative of the modern newspaper tendency to run sports stories on the news pages as well as the back pages.
		The financing and construction of Wembley stadium, London's Olympic bid, security concerns at Athens, the controversial rebranding of the football league and the renaissance of the England cricket team all received ample coverage beyond the back pages.

		The seven-hour meeting at the Leonard Hotel near Marble Arch, London, concluded wonderfully for Eriksson but catastrophically for Thompson, who was actually overseeing the denouement of the ‘Svengate’ affair.
		David Davies, the executive director watching unfolding events from afar, was not mentioned in the report, so confirming his reputation as the FA’s great survivor.

	Observer \| Premiership covets FA's 'crown jewels'
		Premier League clubs are seeking greater control over the FA Cup and England team as part of a major overhaul of the Football Association, following the failed attempt to oust Sven-Göran Eriksson.
		Influential figures are using the FA's inquest into the 'Svengate' crisis to argue that the restructuring now being planned should reduce amateur football's influence in decision-making and increase the professional game's power over the FA's money-making 'crown jewels'.
		Another FA board meeting on Tuesday will start a reorganisation process that may lead to the creation of a new body - dominated by the Premier League and Football League - to handle all commercial matters, such as the FA's television and marketing deals.

		The same goes for Svengate, which works, and Blunkettgate, which is far too syllabalistic (there's a new one for you).
		You mentioned Nannygate, which is far easier to say than Blunkettgate, but why should a poor Filipino nanny suffer for Blunkett's bad judgement.

		LONDON (AFP) - Britain was gripped by a complex tale of sex, sport and intrigue which has cost the job of its national football association chief and threatens the future of England team coach Sven-Goran Eriksson.
		More than Iraq, the Middle East or worthy world trade talks, the affair -- inevitably dubbed Svengate -- has come to dominate the front and back pages of the newspapers as well as television.
		It reached a new pitch Sunday when Mark Palios, who had a brief affair with the same English Football Association secretary as also romanced by Eriksson, announced that he would step down as FA chief executive after just a year.

	Nationality the real issue at heart of ‘Svengate’ saga - [Sunday Herald]
		No wonder that as the media worked themselves into a frenzy of foaming morality and self-righteous indignation, common sense departed stage left.
		By this time, everybody must be aware of the pivotal figures in the little drama, which has been labelled Svengate by the same unimaginative people who trot out this cliche for every controversy, whether important or immaterial.
		If this was a plotline from the ludicrous Footballers Wives, it would be immediately dismissed as flimsy and unconvincing.

		Football: Palios the first to go as Svengate thrusts FA into worst
		Even by the FA's recent standards, yesterday had been a day of astonishing developments in the "Svengate" saga, the central question being whether Gibson, the FA's communications director, had offered the deal to the News of the World under instructions from Palios - or at least with his knowledge.
		Gibson is likely to come under extreme pressure within the coming days, as is the FA's chairman, Geoff Thompson, who unilaterally cleared Palios of any wrongdoing last week.

		Firing the Swede, who also hit the headlines two years ago after an affair with TV celebrity Ulrika Jonsson, could cost anything up to 14 million pounds ($25.6 million).
		The scandal, dubbed “Svengate” by the tabloids, is the latest in a long line of self-inflicted wounds which have left the FA a laughingstock.
		Palios’ predecessor, Adam Crozier, left the FA under financial pressure after overspending on big projects including a “National Football Center” that never materialized and the rebuilding of Wembley Stadium.

		The "Sven" in question is Sven-Goran Eriksson, football (soccer) coach for England, whose job was on the line after it became known that he had cheated on his girlfriend with an unmarried secretary.
		"Svengate" (as the scandal has been dubbed, a nod to the undeniable US influence on well, everything) hasn't been the only recent obsession in the British media.
		The ongoing crisis in Sudan is covered with the kind of detail, depth and urgency that puts our own press to shame.

	WHY DID SVEN STAY?
		Answer, simply that the FA heeded its own legal advice, which categorically stated that Sven had no case to answer in respect of the allegations against him and so to dismiss him would have been legal suicide.
		So, what were the reasons behind this legal advice and the FA’s final decision in the latest Svengate affair?
		Ultimately, it came down to the nature of the allegations against Sven and the evidence in support of them.

		How ironic it was that one of the players he had a pop at in the latest Svengate scandal was the one that popped up with the winner in the 90th minute.
		I still feel that the tabloid in question has not achieved its goal in this ludicrous affair, which was obviously to remove Ericksson from his position as England coach.

		Whatever the rights and wrongs of the whole mess and the potential subsequent legal minefield, the fact remains that come the end of the week England could be coach-less one month away from their first World Cup qualifier.
