Bulgaria PM called for BFU boss to resign - No FIFA ban???

[iworo]

FIFA insists that governments shouldn't interfere in soccer affairs, right? We are seeing a double standard applied by Infantino here. Why the double standard when it comes to Afican countries? Is my reasoning not clear or am I missing something here?

Earlier on Tuesday, the Bulgaria prime minister "strongly condemned" the fans' behaviour and called for Mihaylov to resign "immediately".

"After yesterday's shameful loss of the Bulgarian National Team and given the bad results of our football, I ordered to end any relationship with BFU, including financial, until the withdrawal of Borislav Mihaylov from the post," he added.

In his post, Borissov also called for Mihailov to resign because of the team’s poor results. He said he ordered sports minister Krasen Kralev to terminate any relations with Mihailov until he quits.

Zapryanov, however, at first said Mihailov would not step down. The resignation announcement came a short time later.

Not long after that, more than 50 uniformed police entered the federation offices, according to local media.

Bulgaria is last in its Euro 2020 qualifying group but will have a second chance to advance through playoffs in March.

Mihailov played in England after the 1994 World Cup and later was elected to the UEFA executive committee for eight years until February.

FIFA has rules protecting soccer federations from government interference, including suspension as a possible punishment.

Valid point you raised here! i am expecting FIFA to throw the hammer on the Bulgarians for interfering but i think not, it is embarrassing what the fans did, FIFA are scared to act because of their, the day players start walking off the pitch, they will surely act

Spot the difference:

- Dissolve FA and fire the FA President
