There is far too much money in the game that's the problem, sad state of affairs if you ask me, with more sorry tales to come as well....................
The FBI has taken the lead because FIFA employees broke the law on American soil, and the Swiss are investigating the bidding of the World Cups because the IRS in America have been informed that there was bribery involved in the outcomes in a voting exercise where United States tax payers had been used. They are fairly serious crimes Bob where all over the Western world people have been jailed for similar actions. The UK is now getting involved as our tax payers money was involved and we have been given leaked documents, so no doubt soon we will Australia starting their own proceedings and possible every other nation who put in bids to host either of the two World Cups, except Russia and Qatar of course. That is why the saccurr guys are doing this.
Yes all these countries are pissed off because their bribe money from the tax payers weren't enough. FIFA officials taking bribes from all parties, the South African government is implicated in the bribery scandal
Not all countries tried bribing the FIFA Mafia, most of them believed they had what it takes to beat a searing hot desert which allows slavery and a dictatorship that enshrines violence against homosexuals into its laws!
This is far from over i can tell you, Bladder thinks he is invisible and it does look like that but they will catch up with him one day, Why the **** is the moron hanging on to the job at his age anyway...Fifa needs young blood and a massive overall.........There is more to come for sure....
The problem is that the authorities are the ones paying the bribes it seems, he has a choice of countries to go to that won't extradite him, have a look at the last 20 years of world cup holders, and the next two as well. he will be dead within a few years anyway, at his age he shouldn't be involved at fifa
FIFA scandal deepens as Blatter aide linked to payments http://blink.htcsense.com/web/articleweb.aspx?regionid=4&articleid=42650279
What I see is a trial by kangaroo court where all we hear are prosecution reports only. It appears that FIFA have no defence because currently they are not being allowed to defend themselves in the worlds press. The BBC usually offers a balance to their reporting, when it suits them, with both sides of a story represented. Not in this case though as no interviews are being shown of anyone defending themselves, Blatter or FIFA from the allegations. The information we are getting is from approved reports from the Fat Boys of Illinois. They are not balanced just accusatory and no one at FIFA is being offered the opportunity to balance the argument or defend against their allegations. The voice of the defence has been muted and even if guilty this is not right. This imo, is a witch hunt and a precursor to an attack on an economic entity with global influence, funds and political influence normally associated with a nation state. Questions we must ask Firstly, if/when Blatter goes who then will lead? Secondly, If officials are found guilty who will replace them? Thirdly, who will control and influence the processes and mechanisms necessary to fairly appoint a new world Blatter and new, shiny, FIFA officials? The old voting system will be in tatters as all FIFA officials will be tarred with the brush of corruption so new mechanisms will need to be embedded. Who will do this? I expect their accents will have a drawl to them and I expect the processes will reflect the interests of the boys from Illinois and subsequently their own controllers. Why is this happening? What is the plan? Is to move the power base and control of FIFA away from Europe, across the pond. What FIFA has is 'independent' influence on a Global scale, political clout of a nation with funds to match and this is unacceptable to the one and only dominant power in the world today. Once control has shifted to favour the Fat Boys agenda the next stage is to secure the money, via huge TV deals which will be vested into the MLS. All the worlds best players will follow the money and we will be left with a premier league akin to the championship. Unless of course we stay on side and back up and do the dirty work for the Fat Boys. The MLS will dominate world football, protected by the new Global Federation of Association Football, to be used, led and controlled in perpetuity by US interests. In simple terms, we've got it, they want it and they're coming to get it. This is a Full Blooded Incursion.
Blimey, check out the ages of those guys 5. Apart from a couple of 50+ kids the rest are well passed it. Easy targets maybe? One American super grass in the list so there goes any 1994 retro-investigations.
Forget who should replace bladder or anyone else and get rid of all the crooks first, you cant replace anyone until FiFa has been totally vetted from top to bottom and every member checked thoroughly......
Most of FIFA's top brass will be doing time in a year or so. The next president would have to have balls of steel to think they'd get away with anything. FIFA as we know it is no more.
