The Master who (allegedly) taught his pupils Blatter and Platinni everything they learnt....
He was one of the top men on the Olympics too..... I am sure a few closet doors will open and skeletons will appear over the next few weeks....

You have to love Linekar's comment at the bottom of the BBC link above.

"Football gave him so much. Yes, you read that right."

Shame he didn't say it while he was alive.

Proving the adage only the good die young. I'll give it a week before Blatter fesses up blaming him for everything that he did at FIFA.

Utter bent bastard. Was corrupt as fuck when he was involved with the Olympics, took shed loads of bribes from ISL and corruption thrived under his presidency of FIFA with Blatter his loyal lapdog. Don't waste any sympathy on this ****. I hope he rots in hell. ****.

[yeah whatever !!]

Am halfway through Andrew Jennings' book on the corruption in FIFA and Havalange features heavily right front the start (and as you will imagine, the list is long!).

It really is a must read and I strongly recommend you get hold of a copy.

I'm getting the impression that he won't be missed.
