I'm guessing that it's only a matter of time before match officials get pulled in.

I agree with this in the main.I really am finding it hard to care about this story. I personally don't see it as the earth shattering story that everyone on here thinks it is. I'm just ambivalent to it, maybe because I really can't see how FIFA affects my enjoyment of Man City. I really don't care where the World Cup is hosted, and if someone has greased a few palms to get it, then so what? The media frenzy surrounding it is also baffling, at the end of the day it's a sport, it's not life and death.
However, it's sodding annoying that men in suits may have been profitting monetarily, to absurd amounts, from a game that is watched predominantly by people who could never even dream of such riches. And in a way that was possibly illegal.

It absolutely is annoying that some fuckers have gotten rich from it, however I try not to think too much about it, especially after MPs screwed the country over their expenses, and bankers became uber squillionaires after fraudulent activity and we had to bail the cunts out. Nowadays I try not to think too much about these bent bastards as it just takes up too much of my valuable time.

Done, just for you. Though I hear it was headline news even on Klingon, so I don't think we really needed to change the thread title to let everyone know.Nice one. Thread title needs adjusting accordingly please mods.
Its currently bigger news than a 13 year old girl dying in Nottinghamshire, potentially being murdered, 400+ chinese dying in a capsized boat (potentially), 4 seriously injured at Alton Towers, and the sudden death of a well liked former MP.

Strangely I feel the same, I also can't get into the hatred of Platini, Gill, or even Dyke, I don't think any of them are "bent", just have self interest like we all do in life, I think the conspiracy theorists worry too much.I really am finding it hard to care about this story.
