They do what they want, they do what they want .....
I guess it’s hard for FIFA to understand the concept of elections since theirs’ usually consist of just one unopposed candidate, the ever popular Sepp Blatter. The football organisation simply has nobody to answer to and keep them in line. It is allowed to run rampant and do what it wants. If it doesn’t agree with something then FIFA simply ignores it or changes the rules.

The latest incidence of no accountability is with FIFA simply overturning election results over in Morocco. The nation will be hosting the Club World Cup next month between December 11 and 21 as well as the African Cup of Nations in 2015. FIFA claims that its emergency committee has refused to recognise the results of the elections for the Moroccan Football Association, which took place Sunday November 10.

The election results showed that Fouzi Lekjaa won after the voting took place, but FIFA’s only reason for not recognizing it has been because, Morocco's football federation "had not fulfilled its duty to comply with FIFA directives." No other explanation describing what these words actually mean was given. FIFA then claimed the old executive committee in Morocco, which was led by Ali Fassi Fihri, will remain in charge until another election takes place in the first half of next year. However, Fassi Fihri didn’t even stand for re-election last week.

Until the decision is fully explained it seems FIFA has the power to put Ali Fassi Fihri back in power even though he wasn’t even a candidate in the election just because Blatter doesn’t like Fouzi Lekjaa.

FIFA and UEFA will end up killing football, eventually the house of cards that Blatter has built will crumble when he leaves/dies and will be consumed by the power vacuum he will leave behind.

I take comfort in the fact that that old bastard can't cheat the Grim Reaper.

Everytime a contender comes to the fore they seemingly get pasted with corruption charges and are then left out in the wilderness. But tell me, as the head of an organisation who commits these funds to the said people, how does he not know they are corrupt; isn't he has complicite as them?

Obviously didn't get the representative of choice, this one hasn't been given the chance to lube up.

Blatter is the Saville of Football. Once he croaks it, all the stories will come out and many people will be found out and charged for their dirty dealings.

The tragedy will be that Blatter will have gone to the grave without being convicted for his corruption and it will just be left for his partners in crime to serve the time - just like the paedo did.

Havelange is still alive...theyve got to pick at his carcass first...and in doing so may just implicate blatter as well.
"How they stole the game" by David Yallop is a terrific read and tells you all you need to know about the despicable shithouses who run the game. Blatter was hired basically as a pen pusher...no footballing background whatsoever...a chancer. He crossed the right palms and stepped on the right toes all the way through..
And Its paid off for him no doubt....but lets not kid ourselves FIFA isnt the only organisation thats corrupt...this is the world we live in...

Very true but at least others try to cover it up even a little bit
