At this rate there won't be any of the candidates to replace a Blatter left untainted by investigations.

I am pretty sure football could survive without that bunch of arseholes.

Seems like Septic Bladder and co will squirm their way out of any jail time. Money is all stashed away, job done

^ There are media reports that Mr Blatter plans to stay on as president once all the presidential candidates are forced out. That's why he wants to hang on till February.

I almost wonder whether FIFA should not be got rid of completely and replaced with an entirely new governing body with a completely new membership.

Latest FIFA news
South Korea's FIFA Presidental candidate Chung Mong-joon is planning to sue Sepp Blatter for embezzlement.

Chung Mong-Joon has been speaking today about him suing Sepp Blatter in the Swiss courts for "embezzlement" for at least £65million

Chung has branded Blatter "a hypocrite and a liar" and has appointed a Swiss lawyer to represent him.

Chung said he is facing suspension from FIFA's ethics committee for promoting South Korea's 2022 World Cup bid. He said that was a "travesty of justice" after no investigation was lodged against UEFA president Michel Platini's support for Qatar's 2022 World Cup bid.

Speaking in London, Chung said: "FIFA has become a badge of shame. To call it a mafia is almost insulting to mafia, so blatant and arrogant is its corruption".

Have now just read that Septic Blatter has been "provisionally suspended" (whatever that means) by the Ethics committee

The sooner Blatter is forced away the better.

FIFA have provisionally suspended Sepp Blatter, Michel Platini and Jerome Valcke for 90 days.

They have banned Chung Mong-Joon for 6 years
