The FA takes massive action to combat repeated crowd trouble at Wembley
According to the Daily Mail, the FA is creating a new board to combat the repeated crowd trouble and public order issues at Wembley after repeat offenses.
Recruitment firm Odgers Berndtson have been appointed to headhunt potential members for the new board, with interviews expected to start in the summer.
After the mess of the Euro 2020 final at Wembley, where thousands of fans entered the stadium without a ticket, The Sun reports an extra £5 million (€5.8m, $6.3m) was spent to enhance security across the stadium.

The security at this year's Champions League final is the biggest security operation in Wembley Stadium's history, but there was still crowd trouble.
The UEFA Champions League final between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund was immediately interrupted on the 1st of June, with three 'supporters' invading the pitch.
The man behind the plot was the social media influencer, 'Melstroy,' who offered mega cash to the first person who successfully invaded the pitch wearing his merchandise.
According to the Express, the streamer boasts over three million followers on Instagram and 1.8 million on TikTok. He offered the first invader a staggering £300,000 (€352,000, $381,000) if they successfully got on to the pitch.

All three invaders were caught by security on the pitch, and Borussia Dortmund's Marcel Sabitzer also played his part in stopping the chaos from unfolding.
Wembley's official X account wrote: "It is illegal to enter the field of play at Wembley Stadium, and we strongly condemn the actions of those who interrupted the UEFA Champions League Final shortly after kick-off."
"All of the individuals have now been arrested. We will support the relevant authorities to ensure appropriate action is taken."
As well as the invaders on the pitch, a large group of fans attempted to push through the fences and ticket stalls, but they were met by the stadium's new magnetic lock system.
Again, it's not been a good look for the English FA and how they deal with crowd trouble. Will their new board sort the trouble by the time the 2028 European Championships role around?
