Irish Times Cristmas Crosaire

I'm stuck on two:
1 across - "at the present time, footballers contact last manager - the one with the role of recommending a selection for the season (9,4)". My problem is the second word (the first is CHRISTMAS) where I have the letters F-I-.
28 down - "reviews handouts at school grounds", which looks like STADIA, but I can't see why.

A Christmas Fair is where you'd get a selection for the season.
