    That's the best bit. The only issue thay claim to have found was with the English. Revenge! That'll teach the FA for being based in the same country as the news organisations that regularly point out FIFA's corruption!

    People have said it before, but the FA should take a high moral line and disengage from FIFA, even if it means England aren't in the world cup. They won't of course, because they need plenty of money too.

    The FA are a bunch of dicks. But laughable to think they are responsible for FIFA's rep. Agree they should remove themselves. Problem is, if they did start a new association from the ground up, as they are run by Boy's Club wankers too they'd only set it up in another corrupt fashion.

    Against Ingurland, no doubt.

    I think the English FA pretty much admitted they tried to bribe Jack Warner while Russia and Dubai admitted to nothing.

    On the plus side, wouldn't that subsequently require a comprehensive Police investigation and be more likely to incriminate Russia/Qatar/Wankers like Blatter?

    It's absolutely farcical. Was interesting to see the German rep suggest UEFA could pull out, which is about the only thing I could see having any impact. Can't see it though.

    Fifa moved to Zurich for a reason.

    Switzerland turn a blind eye to Fifa, just like the Nazi gold and their transparent banking system.

    Looks like the World Cup will be in November or December.

    Think of it as three summers not being ruined by England playing.


    Until the FA have them playing friendlies against the likes of Botswana.

    Absolute cracking game this morning.  The minnows have made some fantastic viewing this tournament so far.

    Saw a news segment recently which showed the living conditions the workers are living in. It's disgusting. No problem with the idea of a WC played in the Middle East, considering the positives it can bring, but the stats above are just shocking.

    Just discussed it here with workmates and they're all "yeah, that's to be expected..." and not in the least bit concerned or bothered by it. One of them said "its foreigners though isn't it" as though that made it okay.

    Its absurd that they plan to hold the WC there. The slave labour that is being employed in Qatar is the same that built Dubai.

    Absolutely appalling, and a final on the 23rd or 24th of December? Fucking hell good luck getting flights to and from on those dates.

    FIFA should just relocate to an underground volcanic lair and be done with it.

    An "accidental" drone strike on FIFA* HQ would get me popping champagne corks.

    *UEFA as well as Platini is just as big a cock as Blatter.

    @Armoured_Bear Leeds. The guy who made that comment is slightly right of Hitler in his views. He seems to think as long as he's fine then **** everyone else.

    Just heard on the Radio that FIFA aren't going to apologise or compensate any club (or league) and that furthermore they believe they have widespread support.
