FIFA delegates getting their cummupence! Blatter GONE today.

[yerwot?]

the banking crisis aftermath should have ruined the reputations of auditors like KPMG, yet nothing happened. They carry on raking in many millions doing a job that should have uncovered the criminal activites but didn't. Same with the FIFA accounts, for years the corruption was well-known
to all, but the "experts" found nothing. No doubt who or what becomes the controlling element at the centre of world football will carry on using the companies that have so spectacularly failed. If there was some blame or penalty to pay the auditors might think twice about looking the other way. Zurich itself has become synonimous with dodgy bank accounts and tax avoidance, this latest global scandal will have confirmed
what up to now was only suspicion.
What-ever, the pot needs to be kept boiling, because so many of the beneficiaries of blatter bribes want nothing more than a return to the "good old days" of graft and unaccountability. Hopefully there will be more and more revelations until any chance of damage limitation is unthinkable.

Why not Germany has 1687 ranking points and God knows how many football teams and stadiums, where as Anguilla with 2 ranking points has one football pitch and a league of six teams.

On top of that despite being a member of CONCACAF none of the Anguillan teams have ever played in CFU Club Championship or CONCACAF Champions Cup, why should their vote count for the same value as that of Germany.

In this day of computer technology you could soon tot up all the ranking point that each candidate for president received.

Wouldnt Anguila have the same number of votes as Germany when it came to the vote to change the voting system? Turkeys voting for Xmas?

An honest and independent investigation (as usualy from Yanks), they forgot to add

That doesn't really make any sense as a voting system for a president?

That's pretty much how the US votes for its own president via the electoral college. The current system is farcical

What the fuck have the FBI got to do with it? Who appointed them to govern world football. What gives them the right to investigate anything.

The indicted persons used US banks and US funds to facilitate alleged racketeering, and it's likely the indicted persons have indicated other FIFA officials as being related parties to the case. That's an easy jurisdictional call.

Because the bent FIFA morons used U.S. Dollars in their dealings, daft fuckers fell straight into the Feds arms

Obviously that two posters before you said why. Not seen any media for the last few days as been working all the time, so hadn't seen all the details.

You're right though mate, FIFA is bent and has always been bent, but the FBI are saying its only been this way for 20 years. Bullshit, I was 13 when USA 94 happened and even then I was questioning how they were awarded it when none of the American people didnt even know it was happening. This is all politics, I'll be amazed if Russia 18 goes ahead.

Chuck Blazer singing like a canary Today, he and other members of the FIFA Executive committee were taking bribes way back in the early 90s for World Cup host placements

So France 1998 was corrupt too? So bribing for World Cup is a tradition it seems. If found out to be guilty, why should Qatar and Russia suffer if this has been going on for past 4 world cups.

And suddenly we know why the French voted for a Blatter in last weeks elections.

 

[kaz7]

I really hope it comes out that there were heavy bribes in the Qatar bid,it makes no sense to vote to have it there otherwise

I find it hard to believe that the USA have been awarded so many sporting events without greasing some palms. Are they going to investigate that?

Whoops never kne wthat posted, i meant to say better the devil is not apt here.

Well because we can still affect these two and we cqan't affect that which has already happened.
Every decision already set by the corrupt needs to be washed away. Just leaving some stuff alone doesn't work when you need full reform.
Everything should be looked at again and bids remade. You may still get the games but it should be done in a transparent a manner as possible.

Lol don't you know about the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics? That was bribed. Look it up mate.

Far be from me to actually defend the US, but they do not really do bribery mainly because the penalties for get caught are huge, they have other way of influencing though
