    The FIFA Ethics Committee have just announced they've recommended sanctions be imposed on Blatter and Platini, but they haven't yet said what those sanctions are.

    So they're not going to jail then? They should be going down for 6 years each.

    Sepp Blatter to Swiss TV: "I was close to death. I sat between angels singing and the fire of the devil."

    How did they let him get away?

    Devil out.

    Blatter is suffering from attention deficit now he can't stroke a white cat at Fifa headquarters. Close to death means he had a bad cold.

What planet is this guy on. How does it work......... Hi Sepp, you remember that work I did for you 9 years ago, yeh well I want Euro1.3m in settlement....Oh that's okay Michel, I'll get a payment to you over the coming days no problem! Unbelievable.

    I'd like to say that the FIFA ethics committee has finally grown some balls but it's more like they gave grown a vagina instead as the balls were the problem.

    Think Mr Coe is also skating on thin ice and has some questions to answer.

    Swiss authorities began a new series of pre dawn arrests Thursday as another step in the investigation into the corruption of international soccer. The investigation is being led by the USA officials, and the report said more than a dozen people were expected to be charged. Juan Angel Napout, President of Conmebol, also was arrested at Baur au Lac.
