Soccer kicks an own goal (again)

[boyo]

Melbourne Victory and Western Sydney Wanderers.
Their, and FFA, management must be pulling their hair out.
The behaviour of the fans may cost these teams competition points.

 

[p.Tah]

Do you think other fans will start dressing up in WSW or Victory gear, cause trouble so these teams get points docked!

Could end up like the old western movies with white guys dressing up as Indians to provoke the cavalry to attack the Indians.

It also happened to Canterbury leagues till police club and other followers took action.

Busy week for Swiss police. Arresting FIFA officials on suspicion of corruption, so soon after arresting those bears for woodland defecation

Sepp Blatter is holding an emergency FIFA meeting. Presumably this involves burning filing cabinets and frantic calls to the Cayman Islands.

Blatter re-elected without a single problem. Colour me unsurprised.

 

[Inside Shoulder]

As someone observed to me: his promises of democracy and transparency if re-elected were a little hollow when his only competition for the job came from a Jordanian crown prince.
I guess all things are relative.

It IS democracy though, just as we have it now in politics: lobby groups and money decides how the people are put in charge, and favours are done.

Sepptic just cuts out the middle man by getting the bribes paid directly. He IS a lobby group
