Re: fifa, not bent after all
They have too much power, and they also have too many countries in their pocket that will constantly back them.

It is corrupt all the way down and has been since the 70's.

You should read How They Stole The Game.

Re: fifa, not bent after all
Talk about taking the piss, these cunts need to be outed, just wish our and the Euro FAs would show some bollocks and Breakaway from FIFA, surely it could be done, if the Euro federations broke away everyone else would follow anyway.

I note how FIFA quickly, conveniently and wrongly blamed our FA using Garcia's report but now won't entertain him as he's rightly attacking FIFA.

FIFA say the complaint is "Not admissible", but not that it is "Not valid".

Fucking madness.

Someone really needs to step in and deal with all this.

Re: fifa, not bent after all
A complaint by the man who spent two years investigating World Cup corruption claims for Fifa has been dismissed by football's governing body.

US lawyer Michael Garcia's findings were released as a 42-page summary by Fifa-appointed independent judge Hans-Joachim Eckert.

Garcia said his summary was "incomplete and erroneous" and he appealed against it to Fifa's Appeal Committee.

However, it has now ruled that Garcia's complaint is "not admissible".

"A lot of my report was word for word from the Garcia report,"

Yeah but if you pick the bits you want you can make the understanding of the report to be some thing completed different .

Re: fifa, not bent after all
It's a shame someone other than platini is in charge of European football as if we had a decent one he could start the ball rolling in an attempt to get these fckg crooks out of the control of world football

Re: fifa, not bent after all
Clearly a breakaway is needed, clearly as Football is bent at international level this won't happen, so somehow these cunts need to be brought to their knees and publicaly humiliated!

Any Ideas?
A boycott by fans and sponsors of the WC would be a start but how?

Re: fifa, not bent after all
Ethics judge Hans-Joachim Eckert says he is "surprised" by public criticism from Fifa colleague Michael Garcia over the report into the bidding process for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups.

Eckert's report into allegations of corruption was published on Thursday.

A few hours later, Garcia, who spent two years investigating claims of wrongdoing, publicly criticised it.

Garcia revealed to the BBC that he did not see Eckert's report before the media received it from Fifa.

Eckert's 42-page report cleared Russia and Qatar, who were chosen to host the 2018 and 2022 World Cups respectively, of corruption but criticised England of flouting bid rules.

But less than four hours after its publication, Garcia, an American lawyer, issued a statement claiming it was "erroneous".

Eckert responded: "I'm surprised, not shocked. I'm a long time in the job here, I don't think anything surprises me."

Garcia's criticism prompted a number of key football figures, among them English Football Association chairman Greg Dyke, to call for his report, which runs to several hundred pages, to be published in full.

Eckert said he would not take that step.

"I don't think that's possible because I have to respect the rights of confidentiality for continental law," said the German.

"Maybe it's another thing in the US, but in continental law I can't do it, and I can't do it in total even by the Fifa code of ethics. I will not do it."

Following Garcia's statement, Dyke said Fifa's report into World Cup corruption was now pointless and "a joke".

But Eckert disagreed and defended his work.

"A lot of my report was word for word from the Garcia report," he said.

Eckert also said he planned to speak to Garcia later.

"being investigated for seeking to arrange unpaid internships"

Wow, what a cunt. No mention of how Blatter's nephew's company always wins the rights to sell tickets and TV rights to the World Cup, though. Weird.

13 Brentford Rd 2:15 Fri Nov 14
Re: fifa, not bent after all
Par for the course with FIFA.
No corruption, squeaky clean unless it's someone who has the temerity to stand against Blatter, who then gets charged with some minor offence while the widescale corruption and illegal activity led by Blatter doesn't happen apparently, all the fault of some dodgy official from some far flung place of course.

Re: fifa, not bent after all
More comedy FIFA news:

Harold Maynes Nicholls, a Chilean considering standing against Sepp Blatter in next year's Fifa presidential election, faces being charged by the world governing body for emails he sent to the director of the Qatari sporting academy "Aspire".

Mayne Nicholls is also being investigated for seeking to arrange unpaid internships for his son, nephew and his brother-in-law who works as a tennis coach.

He denies any wrong-doing and insists that neither he nor representatives from Chilean football ever travelled to Aspire.
----------------------
FIFA trying to charge someone who was considering running against Sepp Blatter? That seems an almost unbelieveable co-incidence.... :o

Re: fifa, not bent after all
Seem to remember the term FIFS used to defend them selves and attack the UK press all those years ago was "Witch hunt"
Bin Haman was the Vice president same as Warner I think and the one who was going challenge Blatters leadership in the FIFA 'elections' as well, then suddenly FIFA gets all "ethical" and it "ethics committee" announces years later.... ah yes we have found the cause (scapegoat) and it's.........no surprises here.......the blokes who could overthrow Blatter.

I just wish any investigation would look at all the evidence (from the UK press) and nonsense going back years and conclude that it is FIFA = Blatter that is the problem not the odd dodgy official from some developing country.

Re: fifa, not bent after all
I don't reckon it wouldn't take too much momentum to create a breakaway World Football Association.

Prime candidates would be the Home nations, Australia, New Zealand, pehaps USA... it would only need a country like Germany to come over and then France and many more European countries would follow.

Pipe dream?

Australia were the other one attacked in the report
They were also the other country that also threatened to sue FIFA over this corrupt farce funnily enough

Sven Roeder 12:29 Fri Nov 14
Re: fifa, not bent after all
Was also thinking that now Warner has made his millions out of football and withdrawn he makes a convenient body to throw overboard and be used as a stick to beat the likes of England and Australia over their bids.
Am sure he is in on it with Blatter and has happily walked away with his share of the booty intact to perform this service for Uncle Sepp.

13 Brentford Rd 12:24 Fri Nov 14
Re: fifa, not bent after all
..........Also it's amazing how Bin Haman from the Qatar FA and Warner have been scapegoated and disgraced so that any accusation and corruption can now be blamed on them whilst Blatter remains whiter than white.
ABSOLUTE bunch of CUNTS!

Re: fifa, not bent after all
Yep Wansteadman remember it well, Warner full of bile about the British press in that investigative documentary and FIFA claimed that the UK press are always looking for stories and making stuff up about FIFA.

Yesterdays events were quite remarkable, firstly laughably attacking only the English FA who were the only open and honest FA during the investigation, then claiming FIFA and Qatar were whiter than white and then the guy who led the investigation and wrote up his findings rubbishing FIFAs biased interpretation.

A new low even for FIFA and hopefully they have finally hung themselves as now there is talk of proper investigation led by the FBI and the SFS here.

I said as soon as Qatar was announced that the European FAs must stand up to FIFA break away!
Looks like they won't though as they are clearly corrupt too and all in it together.
Something needs to happen soon!

Re: fifa, not bent after all
Funny when we had that bloke off the telly investigating blatter and warner over bribery and corruption it was swept under the carpet. Suddenly we buy him lunch and suddenly we are accused of bribery
