A few officials from FIFA, footballs governing body, have been arrested.
Loads of rumours about corruption, which isn't surprising when you look at some of their decisions, including the Qatar world cup.

Interesting piece on the radio yesterday as to why the FBI got involved.
It would seem that any transactions made in US dollars anywhere in the world are subject to American laws governing the currency even if the transactions do not pass through the USA.

Every day is a school day.
I see Blatter got re-elected. Shock.

I see Blatter has resigned. Good. Let's hope there's some dirt on him.

Didn't think he'd go to be honest, corrupt the lot of them. They have all lined their pockets well.
