Not before time!

I know this is news but the double entendres that could be gained from this OP - this should be in Chatterbank, methinks

Why doesn't Blatter just b*gger off ?

Didn't anyone think, for one minute, that the decision to award the World Cup to a place like Qatar was even slightly weird ?

There isn't any grass there for Gods sake !

Give the bloke a chance to get his foot under the table , for petes sake - jeeeez

//There isn't any grass there for Gods sake ! //

What's grass got to do with it - isn't it beach football ?

[ChillDoubt]

LOL @ Welshie, good spot!

You don't think Sepp will take any notice do you?

The only way to get him out is to send in the troops.

[berniecuddles]

few more envelopes under the door and mr Blatter will be in again!
should get the tax investigators in to check he's bank accounts!

Does Platini exactly smell of roses, when his son became the chief executive of Burrda, a Qatar owned sports company?

[Hopkirk]

Apparently Platini voted for Qatar while Sepp almost certainly didn't.

I don't think it matters who voted for who. Qatar should never had been in the running in the first place...as I have said, far too hot and arid, no tradition of any organised sport at an international level whatsoever...and no fecking grass !
