Thanks for that article Nick. I think it's about time the English FA simply said 'we're not going to take part in the FIFA World Cup 2022 if it's held in Qatar'. If there are contractual obligations, and fines to be paid, then let them fight it out in court, or the government pay. Personally I'd like to see the English FA lead a breakaway world football tournament, and tell FIFA to fuck right off. I'm sure half the world's real football nations would jump at the chance of getting shut of FIFA/Blatter. It's only Blatter's links with micky mouse footballing nations, who have as much voting power as the Euorpean powerhouses of football when it comes to FIFA shit, that keep him in power. And it's corrupt money going to those micky mouse nations from Blatter's dirty pockets that buys their vote. _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected] MARCHING ON TOGETHER
