IMA MAROON Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 If Reynald Temarii is using the money to put back into the game that is fine, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamboinglasgow Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Sad but not surprising, after reading the Andrew Jennings book this is only the tip of the iceberg, and probably many more will be guilty. It also comes at a bad time for Sepp. But sadly I dont think it will bring him down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well obviously but how else can he be ousted if it those around him on the take? There's not a chance in hell he'll do the honourable thing and "fall on his sword". So how does it happen?

rossthejambo Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Doesn't that happen every single World Cup bid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boab Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 I like the wee sentence after the bit about the Nigerian geezer asking for 500k...."This is clearly against FIFA rules"......you don't say! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also comes at a bad time for Sepp. But sadly I dont think it will bring him down. Andrew Jennings book was a real eye opener as to the levels of corruption in football. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to look deeper into the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portobellojambo1 Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Doesn't that happen every single World Cup bid? I get the impression it happens with many major sporting events, whether it be football, cricket, rugby, the Olympics or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
