Hopefully that arrogant french fucker Platinni can get draggd into it as well!
Fully agree. He's been arse kissing Blatter in the current campaign so he can be President in 4 years time. |

Platini is already involved and playing the game. He accused Blatter of giving £1m to a member association without the authority or budget to do so. Now he's saying he was just having a joke with Blatter when he said it. Twat.

The thing that amazes me about things like this is no matter how screwed the organization or its leaders look from the outside they never seem to get their comeuppance.
We all know FIFA are a bunch of geriatric farts riding the gravy train. We know the likelyhood of unethical behaviour at best and down right corruption at worst is a certainty. But nothing will change.

Over the years there have been books about dodgy dealing at FIFA (How They Stole The Game by David Yallop and Foul!:The Sceret World Of FIFA :Bribes, Vote Rigging and Ticket Scandals by Andrew Jennings), but the same people are still in power, with Governments bending over backwards to help them get the World Cup in this country.
FIFA needs to be reformed. UEFA should threaten to pull all their members out unless there is a major clean up. UEFA have got the power as without the country's like England, Germany, France and Italy paying big money for the TV rights FIFA wouldn't be able to exist. But I cannot see Platini doing anything as I think he is part of the problem.

He's also released an email from Jerome Valque (Secretary General of Fifa) suggesting that Qatar bought the 2022 World Cup.
If 2022 has been 'bought', who says that the 2018 wasn't either especially with Abramovic in the Russian bid team. And there are serious doubts that Brazil will be ready in 3 years time. The whole situation stinks. |

Bin Hammam added: "If I was paying money for Qatar you also have to ask the 13 people who voted for Qatar." Let's hope they do |

After all that, Blatter insists that the 2022 vote will not be looked in to and that the election (now with himself as sole candidate) goes ahead. Something has to give in the next few days.

Blatter is deluded. He said he was speaking for all the football fans.
Well Sepp, most football fans want you gone mate.
