Seriously, why this outdated, senile old muppet is in charge of our beautiful game, I fail to see.

Should hang his head in shame.

He's in charge because he's got the support of such footballing luminaries as Mongolia, Chad and Vanuatu so who cares what nobodies like the English or Spanish think.

That and the fact if you've got the audacity to run against him he'll ruin you forever and then run unopposed.
 
God, he's got me agreeing with Rio Fucking Ferdinand. Almost pisses me off more than his initial quote.
 
He's a disgrace & has no place running a bath, let alone football.

Him & Twatini are an absolute joke.
 
As much as he is a disgrace etc, etc.....England are still the Football Association who allowed John Terry to captain his country after calling another player, a black player, a 'black c**t'. Get off your high horses. Sort out the English FA first.

Oh, and I don't care about this fucking 'innocent until proven guilty'. We've all seen the video evidence, and he definitely used those words. The bloke is guilty as sin, and he still captained his country in a football match. Personally, I have absolutely no fucking idea why any of the black English players took to the pitch.....wankers to a man, and not one single bit of moral courage amongst them.

So, yes, Blatter is a moron, but stones and glass houses etc, etc.

The only twat on a high horse would appear to be you.

I'm no Sherlock Holmes but didn't Anton Ferdinand used to play for Sunderland A.K.A The Black Cats.

As for Blatter, if I understand him well enough, I agree with his general point (though he doesn't make it tactfully). Racism in action probably doesn't exist. If a player's good enough; he plays.

Racism in words does exist. But where do we draw the line?

If a player says to his opponent: "I hope your children die" and that player responds with "shut up you black ****", it wouldn't sit well with me if we banned only the one making the racist retort.
