      Well fuck me.  I am surprised…..

      Fifa president Sepp Blatter's payment to Uefa chief Michel Platini was a "conflict of interest", says Domenico Scala, chairman of the world governing body's audit and compliance committee.
      Swiss Blatter, 79, and Frenchman Platini, 60, are both suspended while Fifa studies reports that a £1.35m payment was made in 2011 for work Platini did as Blatter's adviser.

        Nice work if you can get it! Platini is such a slimy toad.

          The whole fucking FIFA should be disbanded and liquidated. Let some new organization emerge and run the world cup. Probably under the aegis of Coca Cola and other major sponsors.

                  Blatter has small emotions? Are greed and dishonesty emotions?

                        Fifa arrests: High-ranking officials detained at Zurich hotel

                        Two "high-ranking" Fifa officials have been arrested in dawn raids at a Swiss hotel on suspicion of accepting millions of dollars of bribes.
                        Police swooped on the luxury Baur au Lac hotel in Zurich, where several Fifa officials were arrested in May.

                                "Blatter ran Fifa like an emperor, a Swiss sun king immune to regime change or challenge for far too long. Infantino has so far refused to criticise the outgoing man - "I respect very much all the work he did in terms of football development around the world," he said earlier this month - and also refused to reveal his salary as Uefa's general secretary. Now he has the throne, such guarded diplomacy and politicking must be superseded by governance through untouchable example."
