    I find it amazing that Blatter says that he didn't know how hot it was in Qatar in the summer. Either he is a corrupt liar or monumentally stupid (or both) but either way he is not fit for office.

    FIFA - the joke that keeps on giving.

    The English FA supplied evidence

    No other FA did. So the allegations are not proven I think rather than not guilty.

    Either way, what a shower of fcuknuts FIFA is.

    So a Fifa investigation into corruption within Fifa finds no corruption. About par for the course really.

    According to FIFA:
    "The FA is accused of trying to "curry favour" with former Fifa vice-president Jack Warner, who quit his role in 2011 amid bribery allegations. "

    Se we offered to take him out for an Indian, big deal!

    The thing I don't get about FIFA and Blatter in particular is that despite their sheer arrogance and incompetence over the years is that nobody has managed to bring them down!

    FIFA is an independent state, with its own laws, customs and practices. It cannot be challenged by any legal process anywhere in the world. Don't you people realise this?

    Think if enough of the top countries got together, they could sort these clowns out forever. Wonder if they fancy a career in banking after!!

    Complete fascist dictatorship. And people wonder why Blatter is standing for another term.

    So they have lied, distorted, and ignored the fact of the report according to ....

    ..the investigator. The sheer arrogance of Blatter and Platini is mind-blowing. Pointing the finger at the FA is a crude attempt to deflect from this whitewash. FIFA. Fools Idiots Fantasists F*ckwits and Ar*eholes the whole organisation.

    We should just break away from FIFA completely, set up another governing body which is completely transparent, and eventually FIFA will have no credible members and will die.

    We've got a governing body who dont want us.

    We've got Club football which is taking priority over International fotball.

    We've got modern players who aren't really that bothered about pulling on the England shirt.

    So why not just say.......**** it?

    That would frustrate and annoy FIFA.

    I've been thinking the same as this since the fiasco of Qatar and Russia was announced. It will never be possible to vote the likes of Blatter out of office; when the Grim Reaper comes for him, no doubt Platini will jump into the role. We need a clean break from this dirt. It might be painful and it might take some time to set up another organisation, but in the end I think it is the only way we will ever get world football onto a proper basis. The World Cups in Russia and Qatar have no interest for me already, because I believe they are already corrupted beyond salvation.

    I should introduce FIFA to the lass I've been in contact with at the Financial Ombudsman. I think they'd get on really well.

    We are talking corruption here so why have an internal body been announced to look into the matter? This could go all the way with the right interest, FBI etc etc get some pressure on the lot of em and get em to resign.
    The original expose wasn't that the" times" that did that? yet this errr investigation did not answer one allegation from their reports!
