i'm joined by the bbc sports correspondent richard conway. , so take us to the beginning. mark sampson was appointed as the head coach in december of 2013. the fa say that in 2014, early in that year, they received allegations of his conduct from bristol academy, where he was previously head coach. a safeguarding investigation was launched, which took a year to report back. a decision was made in march, 2015, the fa ruled he was not a safeguarding threat. it wasn't until october, 2015, mark lane, the current chief executive, learned of the existence of a safeguarding investigation. give me the date again. october, 2015. two years ago. martin glenn said he went back and looked at the report in detail for the first time, he was prompted to, he said, by two anonymous people that can give in. he said he took at face value that the report was confidential and couldn't look at it. having found out he could, he looked at it and said that the behaviour was unacceptable, inappropriate, and that boundaries between a coach and players had been crossed, a
