observer Posted May 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 If the whole of FIFA is tainted, what's the point of an election - why not sack them all and get a completely fresh squad in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fugtifino Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 Each countries' FA has the option to resign from FIFA, if enough of them choose to do it, FIFA would cease to exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teessidewire Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 The whole organisation is rotten to the core. We might as well sack the lot and let Robert Mugabe and Colonel Gadhaffi run it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

observer Posted May 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 Seems the English F A tried to get support to halt the coronation of Blatter at FIFA - but there was no support - does this mean the rest of the delegates are bent too?

Peter T Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 Seems like most things in life. A lack of volunteers that they want to vote in. Obviously they prefer the present bent system as opposed to finding someone new (which they are going to have to do, next time) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted June 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 Is it time for the International Community to act, and bring about regime change at FIFA? Or perhaps we could get the RAF to take Blatter out?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egbert Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 If we really feel so strongly about this, the FA should resign from FIFA. But how many football fans would support such an action? Â No World Cup! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 I don't think it would have the impact you think, most fans put club before country anyway and England games just provide spells of artificial nationalism (tribalism) Â One thing I would do straight away, given that the Welsh FA didn't support the FA stance, is end the anomaly that sees Welsh teams in English football.

Peter T Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 ? No World Cup!  Hardly likely to impact on English football, and for the fans, it will be on TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

observer Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Seems the chief suspect has now washed his hands of FIFA in return for investigation being dropped and a presumption of innocense - they're taking the p**s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fugtifino Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Nothing new there then. Â Calling it a nest of vipers does a disservice to vipers. Â Blatter doesn't refer to FIFA as a "family" for nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
