Blatter Resigning

[benteke]

Wow!!! Who knows what may have prompted this?

true buddy, am asking myself what has gone on behind the scenes to make him change his mind.

You can bluster and cover up the truth for so long, but light can never never be covered. It will always shine!!

Shame on all those on these forum that blindly supported this corrupt ole yet talk about corruption being the bane of Nigeria's development.

I was well and truly dismayed by some of the comments I read on this issue. Makes me really worried about Naija's future!

Natives!

If you don't understand the support of Blatter not just by folks on CE but also by the folks who overwhelmingly voted him in then I am sorry your education was wasted.

Folks frowned upon the hypocrisy and gangup by those who couldn't get their way.

But then again self loathing manifests itself in various forms.

[Waffiman]

Takedown complete.

My hope is this leads to a cleansing of the organization. My fear is the big boys are going to make sure the small fry know their place in the world order.

This was my only reservation about the whole thing. Please Hayatou next.

I hope it does not end with them taking control. But you gotta say, the evidence must be damning. There must be an awful lot more strife coming down the line for this action. We will see.

[oloye]

So you people are asking me to produce evidence? Fair enough! Well those who made silly arguments in support of Blatter know themselves. Maybe Damunk can come here and give you guys evidence as he was the man fighting all of them. I don't have the time today but maybe when I get home tonite I will dig up those threads (chei!! How I wish I had bookmarked them).

I guess the 18 european fas that voted for him were silly as well.

Yes they were. Do you have evidence to the contrary? Have they not been shown to be silly now?

I did not know that they have convicted Blatter of some crime.... There are many reasons why he could be resigning now...but the fact remains he refused to allow them determine the outcome of the election. With so much going on he was bound to go sooner or later because even of he survived the move to stop him from being re-elected,it would be hard for him not to bow to the pressure from sponsors. I am sure if he was arrested for some crime you wont see anyone backing him.

Ah my good friend simply lumped us all as being lovers of corruption hence our support for Blatter. It was easy for him to take that position.

[YUJAM]

Yup as long as it does not return to the Eurocentric times of Sir Stanley Rouse..

Takedown complete.

The $10m paid to his assistant by I believe the South African FA must have been what broke the resistance. But I believe Blatter has one upped them by surviving the vote. The successor will pretty much be a Blatter guy.

i also hope so, but the way things are going i cannot rules that out.

I am hearing noises of the Qatar 2022 WC bid being redone

Chileke! Chai! Ndi Amelika! Di pipul di egwu o! They can do and undo!

You no hia bifor say, "gari no go obey order until im see hot wata"?

[kawawa]

Brilliant piece of work by DOJ. Built a case on peripheral corrupt figures who used US financial institutions (very legitimate jurisdiction). Dropped it when it had most impact (a couple of days b4 elections). Wait for moles to slowly scurry and surely implicate the big fish (New York Times front page this morning on how investigation was getting closer to implicating Blatter). It had to happen. Unfortunately, We will never actually know just how much they had on these guys. Must be damning

They will redo that one,they wont touch Russia,she is one of them...the scape goat is Qatar,it was always the sore thumb that refused to go away. At this point cant really be bothered ,Qatar happens to be one of them lap dogs, so Qatar should cry to Uncle Sam reminding him the dirty job she does for him in the middle east.

Wait o! Did I mention any names? So how do you know who I lumped together? Abi na guilty conscience ....

Ah of course you default to your basic animalistic instincts where the first thing that comes out is to name call. Gosh, what a child!

[txj]

I think many of you here have a lot to learn...

I am owed multiple apologies here by folks like Waffi, Cellular, etc

[Chief Ogbunigwe]

Chileke! Chai! Ndi Amelika! Di pipul di egwu o! They can do and undo!

US DoJ does NOT play. The US govt is one entity you can't offend and get away with it.

Really?

Someone ...



says Hi!

don't underestimate "politricks for general consumption"...You would be surprised @ the kind of deal-making that goes on between dem countries

[Cristao II]

I think some people are rejoicing too early.

No guilty conscience buddy....i have no reason to be...just helping you out

I think na guilty conscience. I agree with you there was a lot of " who cares if he is corrupt as long as he is good for Africa".

[bret- hart]

I don't think you'll find anyone who wanted him or who would pick him. At least not on CE. The African FA's who deify Blatter know the riches dia pockets don enjoy.
It's much like picking between two bad politicians for me. You cannot win. You either abstain and watch or you pick the one you consider the lesser evil. Prince Ali was a joke at best. A figurehead propped up by UEFA and the allies.
This isn't a matter of 'only blatter can save us'. Do you understand the argument being made?
Knowing what you know now, would you have left Qaddafi alone in libya or saddam in iraq? Dictators are not always a 'bad' thing.

Ok, platinum this is the kind of comments that just makes me shake my head. The assertion above is based on what again?? Everyone is always a "figure head" going against the established dictator.

Dictators are ALWAYS a BAD thing!! I guess you can say they are not so bad when you're not the one being crushed under their boot. Call me naive or whatever but for once can we just stand up for what it right and not put all these qualifiers around things.

FIFA is corrupt, Blatter and his cohorts have collected bribes for years and now they have been made to pay. That is where it should stop! None of this agenda, bully, conspiracy talk.

Oh Just STFU already!!!.

[Waffiman]

Gotta say, this made Blatter's position untenable. Jerome Valke is Blatter's closest aide, if you cannot get evidence with Blatter's fingerprint, then this is as close as it gets.

Note: The Swiss Attorney General has said Blatter is not under investigation, and as far as they know, he is not under investigation by the USA authorities. The real question is, what does Blatter know and what role has he played. Did he just run a blind eye knowing all what is going on around him because he wanted to keep power? If he did, like I suspect, then his position is not tenable. He was right to quit.

We always knew Warner was a crook but it looks far worse than we ever thought. This is pure gangster corruption like we have in our country. No wonder Amos Adamu was asking for $1m for his vote. These guys were all crooks and I hope they are all punished.
