cup of tea Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I think it's clear to see that there are obvious problems with the Qatar bid for the World Cup, the extreme heat was not taken into consideration for starters and there's a significant evidence about potential corruption, but according to Sepp Blatter, the British media are being racist. I hope the sponsors put enough pressure on FIFA to sort the situation out properly but I think they will try to bluff their way through. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/worldcup2014/article-2653335/Sepp-Blatter-calls-British-media-racists-World-Cup-corruption-scandal-engulfs-FIFA.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loose Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Not in Sepp Bloatter's world he hasn't. This is what he can tell the African Nations that the UK and everyone else who complains why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhodes Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I know that the buck stops with Sepp Blatter but can't we give the poor bloke a break for once, surely it's the staff around him who are clearly incompetent buffoons and on the take and on the whole Blatter himself does a decent enough job overseeing a huge Worldwide operation, it's a thankless task.

Big J R Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I don't agree, Rhodsey. The man is a complete and utter egotistical twat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhodes Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Well when I worked in the House of Lords for a brief time on secondment my boss met with Blatter and you couldn't have wished for a nicer more genuine chap, I appreciate that was sometime ago but surely he can't have changed that much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big J R Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Well, he is getting on a bit now and his recent comments about Britin being a racist country where far too much over the top. http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/jun/09/sepp-blatter-fifa-qatar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
