As I said earlier, my belief is that this whole drive to get rid of blatter would never have started had england been awarded the world cup - that being said, I dont care about the motives because getting rid of blatter should be a priority for every country regardless of the reasons. In my opinion uefa needs to show the courage of their convictions now - they made big noises and subtle threats were made, but if they dont back up these threats with real action then their credibility will be shot for a long time.

Pulling away from fifa is now the ONLY action that can provoke change - the rest of the smaller non european countries have shown that they too, like fifa executives, are open to having their votes bought for the right price so expecting them to change their stance is an absolute waste of time :roll: Force the brazil's and argentina's (the bigger footballing powers) to decide if they want to participate in a world cup where their biggest rivals are ghana or japan :roll: Force the players of this world to decide also - if they play in the european leagues (where the money is), then they will not be allowed to fcuk off and play in international football tournaments under fifa's umbrella. You know damn well that they will choose the money because greed and family motives and again their motives are seconadary when it comes to undermining fifa now.

Anyway uefa have pushed the anti blatter agenda and now they need to back it up and if spain and france dont agree then they too can fcuk off and play qualifiers against new guinea or whoever :roll:

Great news. I assume they have something substantial on him personally - very strange to be re-elected then resign??
Hope the old *word censored* gets sent down for a few years.

Alas, the whole organisation appears corrupt to the core, so he will likely be replaced by a clone of himself.

I was hoping he would stay on and thereby encourage a breakaway organisation to replace FIFA.

FIFA is rotten to the core. Blatter's replacement will be another bent bastard. Bribes will continue. They will simply avoid using US financial institutions in future.

FIFA doesn't have to publish it's accounts. Unless that changes then they will remain corrupt forever.

Absolutely - the c.unt is as corrupt as the day is long and something must be about to come out from the investigation, to force him into resigning now
