<b>Lord Triesman and Melissa Jacobs</b><br/>  When the former Labour minister and chairman of the Football Association Lord Triesman agreed to meet his former acquaintance Melissa Jacobs for coffee in London's Marylebone, he clearly had no reason to believe his comments would end up on the front page of The Mail on Sunday. Over pastries in a branch of Paul pâtisserie, the then head of England's bid to host the 2018 World Cup made a series of indiscreet allegations about football, including an incendiary claim of collusion between the denizens of the game in Spain and Russia. Ms Jacobs, 37, recorded the hour-long conversation and is understood to have approached a number of media outlets with the story and almost 70 text messages sent by the peer. Lord Triesman said: "A private conversation with someone whom I thought to be a friend was taped without my knowledge. That same friend has also chosen to greatly exaggerate the extent of our friendship."
