New Zealand will not vote for Blatter - yay!
Hoping the other 10 Oceania Football confederation nations will follow suit!

"You know who you are dealing with," he said. "What football needs right now is a strong leader, an experienced leader, a leader who knows all the ins and outs of the situation."

Thats strange, he is very experienced and knows the ins and outs, but yesterday he didnt know anything about the corruption in Fifa. :unsure:

My prediction is that more corruption uncovering in the coming days to put more pressure on Blatter. Also was hearing on CNBC today mounting PR pressure on FIFA sponsors such as Coca-Cola, McDonald's and of course Nike to demand changes or withdraw from future sponsorships. US motives here is pressure on Russia.

The cost of the Sochi Olympics has been massively exaggerated by the Western Propaganda Ministry (sorry, I meant free press)

They included in their reported numbers several other infrastructure projects penciled for Fiscal Year 2014 all over Russia. The entire Sochi region has been turned into a world class luxury resort. The cost of the Olympics was only a fraction of that sum reported by the likes of the "Guardian" etc... Like I said before, not one thing you read about Russia in the western media is remotely true.

That is not to say of course that there isn't corruption in Russia, you bet there is. But it is no worse than your run-of-the-mill country, there is nothing exceptional about it.

All this fuss about Blatter has been kicked up since Russia got the 2018 World Cup, some circles in the West did not like that, not one bit.

I can provide examples of mythical corruption taking place in western countries as well.

Watching too much ORT buddy? How the fuck do you know what was the true cost of the Olympics. Are you Russian Minister of Finance? Stating that the level of corruption in Russia might be no worse than Germany, UK , France or US is complete non-sense. Those surveys are not done by "Propaganda Ministry" , it is done by professional independent companies like KPMG, Deloitte, Ernest/Young etc. 5 years ago when Standard and Poor downgraded US banks, Propaganda Ministry couldn't do anything and it was published in press. Those banks took massive losses, so did the US Government - but they couldn't influence that decision. Please stick to football and don't speculate about things that are very well defined, quantified and substantiated. and FYI I read both Russian press, watch Russian news programs as well as Wall Street Journal and other Western Media outlets.

Corruption for WC/olympics bids is one thing, but Qatar is taking it to a new level with their complete disconsern of safety and rights for the contruction workers. Throwing away human lives is far worse imo, and plenty of people have died and will continue to die just so that Qatar can get their moment of glory. Qatars world cup shouldnt have the world cup regardless if their bid was the best or not.

Qatar denies all this and who report this the western media who always the good guys and the rest of the world are the bad ones Why should I believe the western media the like of BBC when time and time again lies and cover up for the good guys .
And why should UK or the USA hot it when they killed millions of instant people on Iraq Afghanistan Japan Vietnam etc I hate the double standard .
Qatar is a member of the FIFA like all the other countries no more no less and will host the world cup .

And 1 more thing at least Qatar wealth comes from its own oil not by stealing other poor countries over 100s of years .

Of course Qatar deny it all, just like Blatter denies being the most corrupt cunt in football. Nobody is going to say "LOOK AT US WE'RE CRIMINALS". Qatar are corrupt as fuck and the whole them hosting a World Cup is nothing but a gigantic sham. They won't get stripped of it either, they just won't. They'll just pay for the lives of those who die, because they think life has a monetary value. What's a few thousand lives when we can host a World Cup?

The much anticipated John Oliver part II of FIFA rant after all the craziness. Very funny.
