Switzerland seek Fifa arrests!

Looks like the Irish FA have been accepting of FIFA and its largesse/corruption.

There all at it!

The Spanish and French voted for him on Friday because they didn't want to stall the gravy train which feeds so many.
The Fa being all righteous is a bit rich too as they played there part in the greasing of palms and gifts in hotel rooms during the WC bidding process.
"We'll take Euro 96 you have the World Cup then" thank you very much.....

Going to be one story after another unless good ol Jack releases his avalanche in one go!
 
Looks like they've got Jack now hung, drawn & quartered. News showing statements of millions going to Supermarkets and other basic businesses with no sporting connections and then returned to back him (laundered) in local currency plus, lots of credit card payments adding up again into millions.

This is 1 bullet Jack Warner can't dodge now, everyone and anyone close to any of these FIFA individuals will now be running for cover and putting distance between themselves, I reckon we won't hear and find out too much about Blatter for a while as they (FBI) will want to build up a file that he will have no chance or opportunity to get out of, I can't wait....

See on the BBC news that the guy in charge of FIFA's Audit and Compliance Committee has said that if evidence is found that proves that the 2018 & 2022 awards were bought then FIFA will strip those countries accordingly

Fair enough, but this guy was supposed to be the one checking everything was above board at FIFA, he cant have been doing a very good job, can he?

The trouble is, if they take it off Russia who will host it with less than three years to prepare?

easy, we can, or any other country with decent stadiums and transport systems already in place, it shouldnt be a major problem if they decide soon, but if they faff about and a year goes by then it is going to be harder to do

Can't say anything else though, can he Phil? If he says the evidence is there but he did nothing then he's dropping himself in the brown and smelly.
 
He's on a roll tonight......:mad:

Any of the big European nations could hold a World Cup with little more than a year's notice.
England, France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Holland/Belgium all have the Stadia and the infrastructure to do it.

Ah- but problem is that at short notice FIFA won't be able to block book all the top hotels.
 
If they find enough evidence they may ditch the Qatar World Cup. After all, the original bid was for a summer world cup with air conditioned Stadia so they have breached the terms of their agreed bid as well.

The World Cup in Russia will be a different ball game. To cancel that would be far too political and I suspect that the excuse of short notice will be used to sweep this political hot potatoe under the rug.
 
Yes I did think along these lines and of course you could be right.

However if he was that clever or devious I would be surprised.
There are computer geniuses these days that will get everything on his laptop.

Will be interesting to see what he has done and who else becomes a suspect.

Looks like the FBI have got something off his computers tonight.

Trouble is with all the shisters they are all ancient so even if they go to jail it wont be for long.
 
But he's got the support of the majority of Fifa...

That said, he's coming across as a megalomaniac of the highest order. Its like the New Year's Eve farces that used to be aired on the Beeb way back in the black and white days.
 
He obviously believes he's clear of any further investigation and/or charges and now has a clear road ahead, personally I hope he suddenly gets drags back down and in with the rest of the rotten apples, I can't believe nobody has enough on him to make something stick!

If he felt he was clear he'd be going to Canada to present the Woman's World Cup, which allegedly he isn't because he fears arrest.

So are the Swiss not allowing his arrest then? Surely he can't be a president of FIFA and stay at 1 location for fear of being arrested as soon as he steps off a plane.
