Big surprise that. I guess Dyke has to get some credit here.

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?

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.

Spot on I would have thought.

Something must of come to light to trigger this in the rushed manner it has.
I wonder if Blatter wanted the election to go ahead as he thought he was safe, but his supporters weren't. Since then, he's been found out and is now panicking. The next few days will be interesting.

As for Fifa, I'm not sure it will matter in till we know what they plan in the future. I'm not confident things will change.

About time, the net was closing. This should not stop any investigation, if he is guilty he should be arrested & deported.

Be interesting to see who stands for the role, I don't think Prince Ali was the right man just a better bet than the little shit Blatter.

Putin owes him one but he has just become much less useful so may lose some of the love for him.

Next target take the WC from Qatar. Completely impractical to hold it in winter in a f***ing desert country and disrupt football.

I wonder what position Prince Ali takes on that?

New York Times is reporting that Blatter is under a federal corruption investigation.

And to no surprise to anyone, Blatter is now being investigated by America :)

No surprises there. This is just the first step. Many more to go before things are on the straight and narrow. Hopefully the decision to award Qatar and more importantly Russia the WC will be overturned somehow.

It must be nice living in that oblivious to the obvious world of yours.

Heard on the radio this morning they have turned on the Large Hadron Collider at Geneva, Switzerland.

The search for Dark Blatter continues.

And let's not forget the thousands of migrant workers who have, and continue, to die in building these stadiums.

Mr Rettalb is the frontrunner for the vacant president spot.
