I doubt it, he'll probably come out whiter than white and everybody else will carry the can.

They can't afford to get rid of Blatter, he knows too much! All white lining of football pitches has been banned. They need the whitewash for the cover-up that will surely follow

About time too!
The whole lot of them are corrupt, £100 million in bribes and backhanders is apparently what the americans can prove

Just heard on the radio the British government are writing a strongly worded letter .

What a pity it took the FBI to root out some offending, have you noticed today that Mr Blatter has missed a planned conference and a medical officer issued that statement......."something cooking" me thinks.

That's correct but then are in two minds as to whether to send it first or second class because of the cost - no wait, apparently they have a disabled bloke who can hardly walk and has dementia that is now on a job course to take it for free after they stopped his benefits because he is deemed able to work .....

The whole organisation is massively corrupt and quite blatant with it, a world cup in the desert? Come on even that one was a bit much for even these clowns.

I hope they get whats coming to them but somehow I doubt it unless the yanks can get them onto their shores.

FIFA are a joke. Most recent one that I as a supporter of football have had to deal with is the nonsense in Scotland. How a team can be liquidated and managed to carry out years of tax evasion.
Then a brand new team formed and straight away placed into the 3rd division and even get to play against some SPL teams, Despite being a brand new entity, is just plain corruption.

Most of these football officials are corrupt.
