Out walking the dog , frank60  , missed it . From what I can glean it was probably a good deal .  But how can you run a show like that .

With the shenanigans which have gone on under Sebb apropos "awarding" World Cups etc , you wonder what other dirty washing is going to appear .

I would imagine there is going to be a huge line of dirty washing.

Blatter will have used, abused, pissed off and paid off....so many people. If only a tiny fraction of them join what is bound to be an ever growing bandwagon, then there will plenty more shenanigans disclosed.

Once fbi start on the guys they have they will all sing. These guys are not the mafia they are just guys who will try to save themselves. FBI are lethal 20 sentences are the norm for this ****. The guy who set up silkroad is doing life. Jack Warner is spilling his guts. Quatar is not going to hold the world cup thats a given.

I wonder did John buy Sepp a drink after they did the deal?

Callit is right ;now that the cat is gone the mice will turn to rats, as for Warner what was he doing all these years when he could have come forward to report what was going on;.. interesting times ahead.

When John reflects on all those kids changing in containers he must surely feel guilty. Money that could have been put to good use.

• Why didn't Blatter tell Delaney and the FAI to f*ck off for themselves and stop being silly? Legal action over a handball - my ar3eCry.

• Delaney has never forgiven Blatter for making him a public laughing stock when he revealed very publically FAI had requested a 33-team tournament. Blatter shouldn't have done that, and of course, Delaney and the FAI shouldn't have made such a nonsensical request.

• Why do the FAI continue to be a national embarrassmentCry

• For the game I loved as child, teenager and into my young adult years, has now turned into indifference, and in the last few years I actually detest the sport - boring, annoying, corrupt
