Charity Shield rap for FA
13 April 2012
The Charity Commission were today due to publish their findings into an inquiry surrounding allegations the 2000 Charity Shield match broke fund-raising regulations.
The inquiry, which centres on the Football Association's running of the curtain-raiser to the domestic season, considered claims charities were not benefiting as they should from the hundreds of thousands of pounds raised.
The inquiry is due to conclude the FA failed to meet fund-raising regulations by not making it clear to all ticket-holders how the charities would benefit and that there was an unacceptable delay in the distribution of the funds.
