FA chief wants end to gift culture

Greg Dyke insists he will not resign as Football Association chairman after receiving a watch worth more than £16,000 but has called for an end to the culture of gifts being given to football officials.

It was revealed earlier this week that Dyke – along with the association heads of all 32 teams which qualified for the 2014 World Cup – was given a Parmigiani watch worth £16,400 in a gift bag handed out by the host Brazilian federation (CBF) during the tournament.
