He's toast. Hope this undoes the Qatar WC as well. That would be a good start.

One of the two payments under investigation was made to a certain M. Platini.
Great stuff.
He's either a criminal mastermind, or a guillable, delusional, bumbling idiot... either way, his comupence will be sweet.

Fergie for Fifa.
It was only a matter of time before something stuck to Blatter (and Platini). No honor amongst thieves.
I said in the other Fifa thread I hope the European authorities get involved and maybe even look into Uefa, and here we are.Tweet

I hope they nail them all to the fecking wall.
That's brilliant. Get both of them out asap
2 birds with 1 bribe, please
That really just about sums it up.
At last. Waited sooo long to hear this news.
Blatter voted for the US for that WC. Platini voted for Qatar...
Need to post again 'cos I'm so happy.
Working in police,prosecutor's office, and such must be one of the most frustrating jobs in the world at times, but then actually putting one of these guys in jail for good (know its not the case with Sepp right now, yet) must be one of those "Pursuity of Happyness" moments.
I'm really excited. Hope so much that FIFA and UEFA crash and have to be rebuilt from scratch.
God I hope this sticks and he gets done.
And Platini too, he's just as corrupt.

Please don't fail now Swiss investigators. It would be unbearable if the two of them came out of this being able to claim it's all just a conspiracy against them.
Get in!
Don't drop the soap Sepp!
wonderful news...
hang him on meat hooks....

Some said it would never happen.
Announced on the day that the 2022 World Cup dates are released for Nov - Dec in Qatar.

Gill would be able to save the organization. But he will never get the job.
feck you Platini
I will wait til more happens. For now, i will keep calm.
Another thread for Jack Warner's likely extraditoin to the US or shall we just celebrate here?
I'm sure Jack will give key evidence to bring down Sepp and the entire organization.

We all know Blatter was fecked. I'm more happy about Platini. Odious Cnut.
There's no doubt Blatter sold the FIFA World Cup TV rights to the Cariibean for a tiny fraction of their value to Jack Warner so that he might get a slice of that profit for himself and so that Warner would keep his mouth shut about what he knows if ever investigated
Blatter didn't vote. He would only vote in the case of a tie.
Jack Warner, step up to the plate....before the Comedian Fool features you in another segment.
Have to think if Warner is extradited to the US and he faces serious jail time, he will sell out his own mother to save his skin.
I suspect this is a bit like asking Al Capone to investigate the Mafia. The 'Swiss authorities' have a pretty good track record in keeping a lid on things.
He could try the 'arry defence "That account is actually in the name of my dog"
Could you imagine the RAWK reaction if he got the job?
I think the entire internet might meltdown.Looks like Platini is getting dragged into it as well. Would love Platini to get kicked out of Uefa, does nothing but protect his own, his countries interests and those of the big 2 in Spain.
I would like to see someone who really wants to make a difference to the football supporting world, even if that means dragging Uefa out of Fifa until the corruption stops.

If they get off with it we should bomb Switzerland.
This was always going to happen. Once the U.S. started extraditing it was only going one way - these blokes aren't criminals, they'll sing like canaries once they realise what they're facing.
Platini up to his neck in it isn't surprising. Blatter backed him to take charge at UEFA. Nobody gets on in an organisation like FIFA without getting their hands dirty - they'll drag you in so they have as much on you as you have on them.

Platini has turned into an obese autocrat. He really doesn't like English football at all and he makes no attempt to disguise his favouritism. Maybe it harks back to Heysel but he's no lover of the English.
