Blatter will be carried out of FIFA Haus in Zurich feet first before he gives up his place as generalissimo of football.
He's got a corrupt system in place that he knows will ensure his continued re-election, and should it ever look as though he might lose any vote in the future, he has the authority to change the rules to another system that WILL re-elect him.
If it wasn't such an obscene abuse of power, you could almost admire the bloke for his sheer brass neck.
But even he can't live forever and we can only hope that at the age of 78 (79 in March), a fortuitous aneurism, or brain haemorrhage or even just plain old Anno Domini will take him. Just one tip: Somebody please put a stake through his heart, just to make sure.
When the glorious day comes, I think a coalition of football fans from all over the globe should march on Zurich, occupy FIFA Haus and refuse to move until a genuinely acceptable replacement is put in place.

was trying to think of a subtle way to imply the same last night. I wouldn't have beaten that.
