    Blabbermouth, you are corrupt and should be sacked,
    or at the very least, other decent countries should abandon the world cup, and form there own version,

    Lots of TPLACS voting for the gravy train to continue. What a shocker!

    FIFA is an old-boys club run by old men with nothing to do but impose their will on everyone around them. Guess they learned that from their governments.

    Congo, Cuba, Haiti ... and, of course, Switzerland.
    Some of the most corrupt nations on earth.

    They write their own rules, sign their own cheques, and can exist in this form for ever - simply because they say so.
    Even the Banksters have international controls over international activities;
    not so these football mafiosos.

    Blatter: I do hope the European Associations leave FIFA. We could have the wonderful situation where only Europeans could play in Europe. Then we could move on and kick the europeans out of the UK. Or is that europenises?

    Apparently he needs another 3 years, so he can wangle Iraq to be the next venue for the world cup..
