If it was 10-15 votes I'd have said it was possible. 30 ? That's gonna be really hard. | ||

Still, this was a major win for 2 things: 1) World sees FIFA as corrupt and the majority of FIFA being fine with that giving the world an even worse view/expectation of FIFA 2) UEFA sees that there is backing outside of Europe for a change in direction I just want to hear about some sponsors jumping ship since there was no change in the failed leadership. Maybe I'm too optimistic | ||

Maybe I'm too optimistic They won't, for two main reasons: 1: They have contracts that would involve huge payments if they cancel sponsorship, and I highly doubt FIFA would have signed anything with a morality clause. 2: The World Cup is the most lucrative sponsorship possible right now, and someone else would doubtlessly step right in and reap the benefits. | ||

Fuck us all. Blatter too stronk. Still a fair few ppl had the balls. Fact is Blatter played this so smart. Grew the game well beyond Europe and South America. Pretty much neutering them. The only reason UEFA isn't taking stronger actions is because they are pretty fucked up themselves | ||

edit: He could have said 'no, let's go further and perhaps I would have received more votes Classy Blatter. | ||
