Fabio Capello has stripped the captain’s armband from John Terry over the scandal that Terry reportedly had an affair with the girlfriend (or ex-girlfriend) of England teammate Wayne Bridge. Terry will remain a part of the team in the lead up to the World Cup and is still expected to play a vital role in South Africa.
“After much thought I have made the decision that it will be best for me to take the captaincy away from John Terry,” Capello said in a statement.
That’s all for now from me, but I’m working on a big piece regarding this whole scandal, Terry/Bridge, Wynalda/Harkes – An affair to remember. Check back for it on Monday.
