I'm actually pleasantly surprised that the ethics committee carried this through, I suspected it might all be a media circus and end with a month ban or something stupid like that.

Pair of cheating champagne and I'm particularly happy to see the smug little cheese eating Napoleon dumped.

Whether we get someone honest in their place is the problem.

no, they're useless but come on we all know that an aussie would never be involved in match fixing or corruption.

We are usually squeaky clean, but like everything, you'll always find a couple exceptions

There wasn't any corruption when an Englishman ran FIFA.

I think it's actually time we took the game back. We let foreigners become involved and they've just mucked it up.

Well Seb Coe is in charge of the International Atheletics now and that is even more corrupt than FIFA - and he's English.

At least FIFA didn't have an entire country charged with being a drug cheat! :oops: :oops:

The corruption came before Coe was involved, Coe appears to be instrumental in getting rid of it and the reason these bans are coming out.

I don't believe for one minute that athletics is more corrupt than FIFA, there's african dictatorships not as corrupt as FIFA.

Haven't you heard that Russia is possibly going to be banned from competing at the Olympics due to their widespread drug doping?

Even FIFA haven't stooped that low - yet.

difference between IAAF and FIFA corruption is IAAF corruption is actually about the sporting competition itself, systematic state-sponsored doping, on the field integrity whereas FIFA corruption is about kickbacks from marketing deals and votes for political positions, off the field integrity.

which one is worse?
