"In that conversation I commentated on speculation circulating about conspiracies around the world. Those comments were never intended to be taken seriously as indeed is the case with many private conversations.
"The views expressed were not the views of the 2018 Bid Board or the FA. Nobody should be under any misapprehension that The FA or 2018 Bid Board are disrespectful of other nations or FIFA and I regret any such inference that may have been drawn from what has been reported.
"Entrapment especially by a friend is an unpleasant experience both for my family and me but it leaves me with no alternative but to resign. I have immediately informed The FA board of my decision. "
An FA statement read: "After fully discussing and considering the alleged comments with Lord Triesman, The FA Board accepted his resignation as FA chairman and chairman of the World Cup Bid Board with immediate effect."
David Sheepshanks, chairman of the Professional Game Board and Roger Burden, chairman of the National Game Board had been appointed as joint acting chairmen of The FA.
