David Moyes Submits Written Observations On Female Reporter Remarks To FA

Sunderland manager David Moyes has submitted his written observations to the FA about remarks he made to a female reporter. Moyes made the comments to BBC reporter Vicki Sparks following an interview she conducted with the Sunderland boss after the Black Cats' with Burnley last month.

After the interview concluded, Moyes said to Sparks “It was getting a wee bit naughty at the end there, so just watch yourself. You still might get a slap, even though you're a woman. Careful the next time you come in.”

Moyes has said that he deeply regrets the comments and has since apologised to Sparks. Having received his written observations, the FA must now decide whether or not to charge the former Everton boss.
