    So the snitch is going to snitch on Blatter, I wonder what the FBI offered him.

    I''m guessing you're talking about Warner!! I think he's trying to dish out revenge for his suspension a few years ago and picked out this time as the best.to do it

    As they say Mr WW, revenge is sweet.

    Was it Blatter who suspended him? if it was I bet he's regretting doing it now it's come back to take big chunks out his arse. I love it.

    This is a good side show during the off season....:1980_boogie_down:

    I think it was FIFA as a whole as he was on the Executive. He probably knows enough to write a book on the subject. The stuff that is being dripped out to the media is probably just the tip of the Iceberg.

    You mean you wonder what the FBI bribed him with. Ironic, isn't it! <doh>

    You could very well be right WJ, big fish are worth more than the smaller fish.

    Bribed or offered, I suspect Warner will get something in his favour, even if it's a reduced sentence.

    I don't care if you're not in the next World Cup either. England are f**king ****e at the moment and really need to
    I don't care if you're not in the next World Cup either as England are a F**king ****e team. You really need to pull your collective fingers out if you are ever going to be force again. Like your cricketers, you need a good shake up. Stop relying on the old has beens and get some new blood in the sides. We are not likely to win the cup anytime soon, but at least we f**king try.


    Rant over. Thank you for listening.

    This is a common thing that people say about the english side. I don't really get why though.

    The "old has-beens" are basically gone now anyway. No more gerrard, no more lampard, terry, ferdinand. In fact we had no one in the side over the age of 30. We had 3 players playing that were 29 years old (Cahill, Milner and Rooney) who I would definitely argue are by far our best players. The fact of the matter is we haven't really been producing good enough players for years and we are now seeing this in the national team. Players like sterling, Kane and Barkley are hopeful but not exactly the finished product. The fact we had Smalling playing (who's supposedly been an up and coming star for years now) shows you how bad a squad we have currently. We had townsend, vardy, heaton, green, cleverly on the bench ffs I mean not bad players for lower-mid prem sides but no where near international quality.

    Following on from Josh... Would any of the England squad make it into the Barcelona club side, I very much doubt it.

    I watched all of that game and asked same question at the end of it. Our Irish team is rubbish and we know that but that England team is no better. Youve been flattered by being in a dead easy qualifying Euro group and the Barcelona would smash that England team by God knows how many goals

    Exactly my point, you just managed to say it in considerably less words.

    Even the spanish or german second teams would destroy that lot

    On the subject of FIFA and the womens world cup: There are no FIFA representatives in Canada because they are all bricking it due to great extradition between Canada and USA. I think this sums up the problem with FIFA as they are supposed to be promoting womens football and have fobbed it off for their own personal well being

    No suprise there. I think they're on Interpols wanted list. I found out yesterday Jack Warner was on Interpol's most wanted list. The media can interview him but the Police haven't found him yet

    Wolves the police have him on bail and are waiting for the extradition documents and he knows he's on his way to the States to sing like a canary.

    On the subject of the womens world cup,
    Who gives a toss?
    Why have the BBC sent 200 staff to cover this politically correct nonesense?

    It's not football, and women shouldn't be playing it whilst ever there is a meal to be made, a pt to be washed or housekeeping to be done anywhere in the world....

    simples.

    Feel exactly the same and ladies football is shyte. HOWEVER it is being pushed by FIFA and is getting more popular around the world so FIFA should be there to promote it and hold it up as being one of their big promises.

    Shame that not one Fifa delegate has made the trip.
    Nothing to do with the extradition treaty between the U.S and Canada (much).
