This, he's only been back off holiday five minutes, what do you expect!

The whole setup needs looking at. Don't know what the answer is but I don't see how you can have the smallest countries in the world, places they barely play football having a vote and revenue share equal to the biggest when it comes to the World Cup.

Don't doubt that but I think there's more chance of that one staying on as its closer and they have a track record of being able to put on these type of events. Personally I'd change it and split it between all the other bidders, they all have stadia in place that could be used and travel isn't...

It's not that unusual for us not to get them on sale for the summer is it? Back when I was young enough and thin enough to not look like a twat wearing one I seem to remember it often wasn't until after the season started you could buy them. Did they mention what would happen with the away kit...

The US tend to offer a decent plea bargain. They'll want the guy at the top so will be happy to see those lower down get a lesser punishment if they will give up Blatter. Will also be questions over Platini now as well. Can't see how the Russia and Qatar results can not be called into question now.

Being reported that Blazer has confirmed bribes were accepted for the World Cups in France and South Africa. Who was head of the French organising committee? No wonder Platini was supporting Blatter.

I was told, by someone on the ACL side, that the amount CCFC are being asked for to use the system is "ridiculous".

Contract was extended to Summer 2015 back in March 2010. Unless we've signed a further extension which hasn't been reported anywhere we're not under contract to Puma anymore. Suspect the away kit being advertised as two seasons is the usual disorganisation at the club.

They were paper last year, think that was as much to do with the rush to get them produced as anything else. This year they are hoping to go back to cards but the last I heard ACL wanted a big chunk of change as an admin fee for access to the system.

The circumstances are probably nobody remembered to order it! :facepalm:

I can see Russia still getting theirs but surely the Qatar one is at least going to be rerun.

To be honest I'm half expecting this, would not be surprised if our matches somehow don't qualify as big enough events to run the promised extra services. Or the police will knock it on the head, there doesn't look to be anywhere for segregation, lets say we go up next season and have matches...

It had better not happen again, I was so bored I did some actual work today.

Sad news, seemed a decent enough bloke and that's pretty unusual in politics. See the Mail are up to their usual standard implying he drunk himself to death because of the election result. Nothing like running with a story when there's zero facts to back it up.

He was decent enough, preferably as cover, and can't be costing much. Not got a problem with this, especially if TM can improve him further.

And agree, credit where its due to Dyke. I think you have to say of the 'bigger' footballing nations we've been the ones really pushing this. Platini seems thick as thieves with FIFA and the Germans had already ruled out a boycott before UEFA met to discuss the possibility.

Didn't think he'd go until he was forced. Has he been tipped off that those already arrested have dropped him in it and given the chance to resign ahead of any further action?

That info isn't coming out until after the fixtures are released (which is mid June normally I think).

Not sure I'd agree, not if you want a large number of people travelling by train as it doesn't look like a facility that could cope. The platform looks pretty small not to mention narrow and from the pictures there doesn't appear to be a holding area. What happens if we happen to get a big cup...

He's a decent enough squad player and you would imagine it would be a fairly quick deal to do. What does it matter who is announced first? Its not like we're going to be signing Messi, pretty much everyone who comes in will be players most people barely know.
