Chambily abandons anti-Domenech campaign

Guy Chambily, a member of the French Football Federation’s federal council, is resigned to Raymond Domenech being in charge at the World Cup but admits the France coach’s departure is still a “dream”.

Chambily called for Domenech to be removed from his post back in mid-December, shortly after Les Bleus’ controversial play-off victory against the Republic of Ireland which saw them book their place in South Africa.
