    Blatter: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly!

    Its easy to jump on the Blatter hatred campaign. Its very much like Manure and Chelsea fans moaning about Derby fans saying what they have isn't fair.

    All elements of all big business have corruption within them at some level be it corporate or personal. We all saw and felt what the Banks did ... however sometimes its worth taking a step back and actually having a look for yourself rather than being told what to think.

    I'm not a personal fan of Blatter but hes getting his votes somehow and I am pretty sure thats not through corruption but the work FIFA actually does world wide.

    Have a look at the link and the good they do for the game. A lot of this is on Blatters watch also.

    Its easy to condemn at one end but I also have to compliment at the other end where they have been doing, and will continue, to do some amazing work around the world! - view external link

    He can't have it both ways tho. Taking credit for the good & washing his hands off the bad & the ugly.
    Surely if these allegations are proved then he must go.

    Your understanding of corporate governance is clearly a little shaky!

    In political terms Blatter has been successful and politicians are rarely popular in offi

    Though you did suggest that folks criticising Blatter were jumping on a band wagon and added a really irrelevant comparison ...drivel!

    There was a worrying argument in your post.
    Whilst it is true,as you say, that many smaller poor countries have benefited from FIFA activities, are you really suggesting that because of this we should turn a blind eye to seriously corrupt methods used or that the good is a justification for those methods?

    Yes it's surely obvious now to any sane individual that football worldwide would have prospered much, much better under a fair and transparent governing body.

    Let's hope they appoint someone with integrity. This would rule out a lot of the morally bankrupt individuals currently at the FIFA to
