Conflicts between FIFA and football association

Fifa has rejected the Football Association's requests for the England team to wear poppies on their shirts during Saturday's game against Spain.

The FA had asked for permission to wear poppies to support Remembrance Day.
But Fifa said: "Such initiatives would open the door to similar initiatives from all over the world, jeopardising the neutrality of football."
Football's world governing body decrees that shirts should not carry political, religious or commercial messages.
England will also wear poppies on their training kit, and on Friday they will stand for a two-minute silence.
Earlier on Tuesday, Sports Minister Hugh Robertson wrote to Fifa seeking permission for the England and Wales teams to wear poppies.
Robertson said: "Wearing a poppy is a display of national pride, just like wearing your country's football shirt.
"The British public feel very strongly about this issue - it is not religious or political in any way."
