Seatonstomb -> BBC defends Panorama investigation into Fifa 'bribes' (12/1/2010 7:21:40 AM)
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-11873907 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-11874091 Given the amount of reputed corruption in FIFA, should not all self-respecting nations threaten to withdraw from it unless it sorts out all the corruption endemic to it. Personally I would just like all nations to withdraw from it to see the end of international football and the world cup. I grew out of football by the time I hit my teens. The less assoc football the better. Have not heard of such nonsense with rugby. 'Fraid I can't say the same for cricket after this years match fixing scandals but at least the cricket authorities investigate it and suspend those involved.

People cheat at sport because there's rather a lot of money at stake, and people confronted with rather a lot of money are not trustworthy. They're all as bad as each other.
