an outside candidate trying to address the fans complaints (albeit as a BIG joke.)

1. Video review for unclear goal-line calls. - FUCK OFF
2. No more limitations of referees per country in the World Cup, to ensure the best - not merely the most diverse - group officiates soccer's biggest stage. Furthermore, that referees must defend controversial calls to the media following games. Anyone who calls football soccer can go kill themselves
3. Taking off one's shirt will no longer be a yellow card offense. GAAAAAY
4. A woman will serve as the secretary general. This one kind of goes against the meaning of number 2, best for the job or a women?
5. All of FIFA's internal documents will be released to the public "WikiLeaks-style" and an external investigation will be commissioned to hound out the rampant corruption.
6. FIFA presidents, including himself, will be limited to two four-year terms. Fucking yank
Glad its a joke because he is a pleb. But someone serious should step up.
