Though I admit it would be hilarious if the most popular sport continued to be ran by someone with federal charges waiting for him in the United States of America.

quote:188. Subsequently, Co-Conspirator #1 (i.e. chuck blazer) learned from the defendant JACK WARNER that high-ranking officials of FIFA, the South African government, and the South African bid committee, including Co-Conspirator #16, were prepared to arrange for the government of South Africa to pay $10 million to CFU to “support the African diaspora.” Co-Conspirator #1 understood the offer to be in exchange for the agreement of WARNER, Co-Conspirator #1, and Co-Conspirator #17 to all vote for South Africa, rather than Morocco, to host the 2010 World Cup. At the time, Co-Conspirator #17, like WARNER and Co-Conspirator #1, was a FIFA executive committee member. WARNER indicated that he had accepted the offer and told Co-Conspirator #1 that he would give a $1 million portion of the $10 million payment to Co-Conspirator #1.

Any deal he would make that the US could get their hands on would be tainted by association to him. the only people who want him NOW are the tiny African nations who get loads of free watchesimean football pitches for kids and amateurs. The entire way the organisation is run is to keep him in position - anyone who runs against him suddenly finds they have no friends. We're talking about an organisation which gives San Marino (population under 40, 000 with a national team made up of electricians and binmen or something) the same power as Germany (population 80 million, current World Cup holders).

quote:215. On May 10, 2011, Co-Conspirator #7 addressed the [CFU] member associations regarding his candidacy, stating, among other things, that he was seeking their support in the June 1, 2011 FIFA presidential election. Following Co-Conspirator #7’s address, the defendant JACK WARNER advised the CFU officials that they could pick up a “gift” that afternoon at a conference room in the hotel.
