RE: football - Andreos1 - 03 Jun 2014
(02 Jun 2014, 10:18 pm)marxistafozzski I think people have pointed out in the past about who has authority over FIFA, Blatter is the President, but who does he answer to, under whose Jurisdiction does FIFA they are a multi - national organisation based in Switzerland, so who polices them, the local police, Interpol, Europol.
Does Blatter answer to anybody or El Presidente responsible for himself, nobody seems to know...
I think the top job is up for grabs soon and I can't see Blatter getting voted back into the top job
There is an article on the BBC website about the subject of Blatter this morning.
It looks like UEFA are not supporting his bid for re-election

After FIFA, UEFA is the most powerful authority in the game, without UEFA backing it may mean Michel Platini could run for the top job, he has been seen as Blatters heir apparent in recent years

There is the article.
It appears they seem be to downplaying Platini getting the role.
Re the Qatari bid - the person hired to investigate the allegations of bribery and corruption, is a New York lawyer - hired by Blatter himself apparently.
Read into that what you will.
It is almost coincidental, that the self appointed football dictator, trying to stay on in his post, personally hires a guy, who with the right information - could bring down both Blatter and Fifa.
I do wonder if all the information which is scheduled to be put before the Fifa committee, has to go through Blatter initially?
Once cleared by Blatter, will it then prove once and for all what happened with the Qatari bid?
The guys who get these presidency roles in football are in a cushy number mind.
Free travel across the globe. Being paid a handsome salary to watch football games. A life of luxury. Expenses paid meals in some of the worlds swankiest cities, resorts, restaurants and hotels...
No wonder Blatter wants to stay in the position.
It was the same with the old Uefa President (Johannson?) and Blatter's predecessor (Brazilian fella, cant remember his name).

Joao Havelange or as I could not say his name properly he became Joes Hairy Flange [FACE WITH TEARS OF JOY]
Will have a read of that link about UEFA later on
But your right about the perks of the job. I don't know how to reform football, but a Blatter appointed governance unit is not the answer as he is having a hand in supposedly governs him.
I think what we need is an independent body to oversee FIFA and all of these positions who seemingly govern themselves, some kind of ombudsman, maybe a body like C.A.S (Court of Arbitration for Sport). Most Governments answer to someone, so why shouldn't the likes of FIFA.
FIFA to me has come across the same way an authoritarian one party state works, you could have 10 names on a ballot sheet but we all know who is going to win(supposedly) the election...

How the hell he managed to put that in, to this day I do not, it was going out till it swerved 6 yards into the net...best free kick ever taken

The youtube clip shows the ball boy ducking out of the way!
Re: football - MrFozz - 03 Jun 2014
Now we are onto good goals...Thought I would share some of my favourite goals
Take a look at this guy
Jose Luis Chilavert, the thing is, Chilavert was a keeper and was a set piece specialist scoring quite a few 46 in 617(1 in every 13.4 games and 8 in 74 at International Level(1 every 9.2 games)
Re: football - MrFozz - 03 Jun 2014
David Beckham scores probably the most memorable goal in football history, 93rd minute, 2-1 down needing a draw to qualify, Hollywood could not script it better if they tried
Re: football - MrFozz - 03 Jun 2014
Gazzas goal against Scotland
RE: football - MrFozz - 05 Jun 2014
England drawing with Ecuador does not seem so bad now when we see how Italy got on last night...
Drew 1-1 at home to Luxembourg
RE: football - R852 PRG - 06 Jun 2014
BBC3 are repeatedly showing World Cup documentaries - and I'm particularly fond of England's Worst Football Team. That David Nugent - that's like someone baking a loaf of bread then you taking it out of the oven and saying you made it!

David Nugent...I remember him scoring on his England debut...against Andorra and don't think he got another cap after that

Half an hour in, Gazza is looking good!
Repeated on the Red Button later tonight.

What channel was it on?
RE: football - R852 PRG - 07 Jun 2014
I watched the Fifa World Cup 1970 this morning - to be honest I think professional football players these days just take everything for granted while the old players worked hard at their profession.
RE: football - Andreos1 - 07 Jun 2014
