FA plan to strip Chelsea's Terry of England captaincy

Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Fri, 02/03/2012 - 07:41

Chelsea skipper John Terry faces being stripped of the England captaincy.

The Daily Mail says the 14-strong FA board held emergency talks on Thursday over the matter.

Although Terry is believed to retain the support of Fabio Capello - who will be free to name the centre half in his Euro 2012 squad - the captaincy decision is set to be taken out of the manager's hands.

Capello is abroad and the FA could move on Friday to end the frenzied speculation over Terry's England role, with the player's trial for allegedly racially abusing Anton Ferdinand adjourned this week until July 9 - eight days after the Euro 2012 final.
