I think football is beyond help and has no merit in criticising FIFA given that they pay dead-headed louts the money they do just to kick a ball around a field.

But I could be mistaken. :o)

I agree, “ the footballers ” have never had a hard days graft in their lives. If SKY was to pull the plug then they would have to “ earn ” a living to survive. Give me rugby anyday, they observe the rules generally and any dissent to the referree and they spend 10 mins in the sin bin, that should happen in football, that would sort the men out from the boys. Should end up a better game methinks.

Poor Blatter. There he was thinking he had another 4 months of bribes to collect. He could almost be Brazilian.
