Profile - Lord Triesman

Rob Bonnet profiles Lord David Triesman, the former university radical who is now Chairman of the Football Association. He discovers how this one-time trade union leader, General Secretary of the Labour Party and fanatical Tottenham Hotspur supporter is now trying to curb the excesses of professional football. He has already clashed with the Premier League over players' commitments, and is now warning that even the biggest clubs could be overtaken by debt.
