Barnsley Central MP, Eric Illsley has tabled an early day motion in the houses of parliament regarding the inaction by the FA over the challenge by Chris Morgan that left Iain Hume in hospital.
The motion reads
That this House views with astonishment the decision by the Football Association to take no further action against the Sheffield United player Chris Morgan following an incident during Barnsley's match against Sheffield United on 8 November 2008 which resulted in the admission of Barnsley player Iain Hume to a hospital intensive care unit suffering from a fractured skull and bleeding to the brain; and calls on the Football Association to review this decision and either to take action against what can only be described as violent conduct or to abandon once and for all its so-called Respect Agenda in view of the lack of protection given to Iain Hume and the complete failure of football's governing body to deal properly with this issue.
We would urge all supporters to encourage their MP's to sign the motion and show support for Iain at this time and urge the FA to review their decision.
