Its going to be in November 2022 and FIFA will be insanely corrupt forever unless ISIS conquer Qatar and cancel the world cup like they threatened. Remember that Jack Warner threatened to leak poo poo about everything and then is mysteriously didn't happen

The Guardian posted:Garcia was compromised from the start by the fact that he had no power to seize phone records or email traffic and those corrupt former Fifa officials who are no longer involved in the game could not be compelled to talk. Unsurprising but lol at expecting to get anything useful

Jack Warner had the FA jumping through hoops for him all while slating them in the press and now he's been kicked out of FIFA, FIFA can use that to slate the FA for sucking up to him. Incredible

Hegay posted:Europe and a couple of the South American teams are the only teams that matter anyways. It'll be easier for those to make a new fed than for FIFA to reform. It's loving retarded that a bunch of small islands no one cares about has as much power as UEFA. Argentina and Brazil are ludicrously corrupt. Remember that the person who taught Blatter everything was Brazilian

They've got so much money that they don't even use much of it on this. Its crazy how much they're sitting on doing absolutely nothing with dex_sda posted:I'm just curious to know how they sold the voting system changes in interviews and the press. That's bound to be a PR comedy goldmine Presumably the Ex-Co members can make the change themselves. If not all the FA heads and such will not want outsiders able to run so it can't have been hard
