    All over SSN that Ginola is running for the presidency.
    He's apparently got 5 federations on board already.
    Anything is better than Blatter.

    I recall being at the olympic final of the women's football at Wembley. Blatter was one of many dignitaries present for the game. When his name was announced there was an audible groan/booing from the crowd of more than eighty thousand spectators. Now when you think about that it just confirmed how unpopular that man is, even amongst the most reasonable football fan. His departure is long overdue.

    I suspect Blatter will continue to do what he has always done and buy off votes one way or another. Remember, it's not just him who is dodgy in FIFA. Would be great to see someone who run FIFA with only the good of football in his mind, such as Ginola.

    Can't do any worse than Blatter. Not exactly what is needed though.

    As the General correctly points out though, Blatter will just buy of the right people.

    Wish the European countries would just get together and tell FIFA to get stuffed. FIFA without teams like Germany, France, Holland, England would be badly wounded as they are the back bone of most competitions.
