PALIOS PRAISE FOR ENGLAND
Football Association chief executive Mark Palios has added his praise to the
chorus of congratulations for England's Rugby World Cup triumph.
England are on their way back to England after beating Australia in the World
Cup final and FA boss Palios has lavished praise on Clive Woodward and his
squad.
He said: "On behalf of everyone at the FA and within our sport, our
congratulations go out to the England rugby team for their magnificent victory
in Australia.
"Our best wishes go to Clive Woodward and his coaches, Martin Johnson and all
the players and to the RFU board and council on what is a wonderful achievement
for rugby and for sport in our country."
The FA however have dismissed reports suggesting they might call on Woodward's
expertise to help Sven-Goran Eriksson's men reach similar heights.
