UEFA should just **** FIFA off and be their own independent entity. FIFA would soon come running back when all the serious money in football turns its back.
 
Blatter will win, you can just tell.

If he knew he wasn't going to win then he'd have resigned today.

I'd remove that post if I were you Macca. May not seem like much but it's the sort of thing that can lead to a sharp knock on your front door.


Edit; apparently you changed your username, who knew?

Michel Platini says 'a very big majority' of UEFA Nations will vote for Prince Ali in tomorrow's FIFA presidential election [HASHTAG]#SSNHQ[/HASHTAG]

Russia is part of UEFA so that explains why it is only 'a very big majority' then.

UEFA would be better just refusing to vote as a block apart from those in favour.
Simply put Blatter will win and I'm normally one who think that democracy is the right way to go. However seeing as FIFA is as corrupt as it is it would be better for UEFA to not vote and just site 'FIFA corruption' as the reasoning.
 
I agree. Boycotting the vote would have more impact.

I'm watching Platini and interestingly he's not ruling out UEFA pulling out of FIFA after UEFA meet at the Champions League final.

Michel Platini: "If Mr Blatter wins, Uefa will meet in Berlin to discuss the future of our relations with FIFA."

David Gill, who is supposed to be taking up a role as vice-president, says he's refusing to take up the position if Blatter wins.

UEFA are now guaranteeing Prince Ali 45/46 votes and he thinks he's got 60 votes outside UEFA.

If UEFA walk away from FIFA then FIFA are in trouble. I have no doubt that UEFA can work as a stand alone governing body but can FIFA work if they have no European say? I'm not so certain.

Like I said Russia then. You know you are on shaky ground when Putin says what a good guy you are.

How many votes are there to be counted and is it public information as to who voted for who?
