Evening StandardCrewe chairman John Bowler resigns in wake of Sheldon report findings into football’s child sex abuse scandal
Crewe chairman John Bowler this morning resigned in the wake of last week's damning report into historic child sex abuse in football, which was critical of the club. Bowler personally apologised to survivors abused by Crewe's former youth coach Barry Bennell and said he had always intended to resign once the FA-commissioned inquiry, put together by Clive Sheldon QC and published last Wednesday, had been released. Bowler had faced calls for his resignation after Sheldon's report found it was "likely" that three Crewe directors [including Bowler] had discussed concerns about Bennell 33 years ago, which "hinted at his sexual interest in children".
