On Saturday, the 16-year-old Wandsworth schoolboy turned out in wintry conditions in the English schools cross country champi- onships at Temple Newsam, Leeds, where he was fourth of the eight London team runners in the senior boys race. Then on Sunday, he turned out for duathlon training at Kew. It was the second time he has competed in the English schools cross country cham- pionships - last year he competed at Nor- wich but, the conditions in Leeds were much more testing with a bitter wind and snow showers. “Just after the last race ended we had horizontal snow with everyone racing for their team bus,” said dad Jeremy. On Sunday, Zac was duathlon training at Kew in preparation for the first race of the Junior Super Series, at Bedford autodrome this coming weekend. There are limited places for the Super Series triathlons and Zac will take part in an assessment week- end next month to decide who should be offered places. Hercules Wimbledon’s Surrey title-waning senior road runners were not so lucky as the South of England road relay champion- ships, due to be held at Milton Keynes last Sunday, were cancelled due to the freezing weather. Hercules Wimbledon’s Georgina Clarke was the sixth scorer of the London team that took silver medals in the English schools junior girls championship in Leeds. Her clubmate Ellen Weir was the second Surrey finisher taking 51st place out of 342 Eagles are just two runners compared with Georgina’s 89th.

  • The FA V Wayne Hennessey
    IN THE MATTER OF THE REGULATORY COMMISSION OF THE FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION Before: William Norris QC Francis Duku Alan Hardy B E T W E E N:- THE FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION -and- WAYNE HENNESSEY DECISION OF THE REGULATORY COMMISSION Introduction and Summary 1. On 4th April 2019, the Regulatory Commission met to consider a charge against Wayne Hennessey, a first team goalkeeper and Welsh International who plays for Crystal Palace Football Club. The misconduct alleged was breaches of FA Rule E3 (1) and (2) arising out of a gesture made at the Bagatelle (London) Restaurant in Mayfair on Saturday, 5th January 2019. 2. The FA’s case was that the gesture (which was captured in a photograph posted on the Instagram account of another Crystal Palace player, Max Meyer, who was also present that evening) was abusive and/or insulting and/or improper and/or brought the game into disrepute, contrary to Rule E3(1) and, further, that it constituted what is known as a 1 “aggravated breach” of that Rule (as defined in Rule E3(2)) because it included a reference to ethnic origin and/or race and/or religion and/or belief. 3. Reduced to its simplest terms, the FA’s case was that the photograph posted on Mr Meyer’s Instagram account showed Mr Hennessey giving a “Sieg Heil” / “Heil Hitler” (hereafter ‘Nazi’) salute. At the risk of stating the obvious, if that was the meaning of the gesture and if that is the only way in which the image shown in the photograph can reasonably be understood, then we would find that it was offensive even if done only in jest.
