'They are completely unacceptable': Casey Stoney hits out at former FA chairman Greg Clarke over outdated remarks as Man United Women head coach calls for advocate of inclusivity and diversity to take over position

Casey Stoney has hit out at former FA chairman Greg Clarke over the 'completely unacceptable' remarks that led to the chief's resignation from the authority earlier this week.

Clarke, 63, stepped down from his role on Tuesday after a disastrous select committee session, in which he used the word 'coloured' when referring to black players, while also suggesting that the lack of goalkeepers in women's football was due to girls not liking the ball being kicked at them.

Manchester United Women head coach Stoney is hopeful that the successor to Clarke's position will strive to engineer change at the organisation in order to develop a progressive culture of inclusivity and diversity in football.
