How much are FIFA damaging football?

Reluctance to bring in technology unless it passes impossible tests.

Non-sensical World Cup placement.

Sepp Blatter and his cronies found innocent of bribery without investigation.

Blatter's presidential opponent, Bin Hammam, suspended from all FIFA activies unless the Executive Commitee allows him.

Presidential elections to go ahead with only the one candidate because FIFA see "no reason to postpone."


Quite obvious that FIFA is rife with corruption, but just how much of a detriment to the global game are they?

They're a disgrace and they are doing untold damage to the game in my opinion. Dodgy capitalists who are obsessed with turning a profit make up the games head governing body.

The goal-line technology and the World Cup placement reflect the idiocy of FIFA but the bribery and corruption is the most worrying thing, that will only breed further corruption all the way down through game.

The former IOC chairman was saying yesterday that all the nations that are p***ed off with FIFA (which should pretty much be all of them except Russian and Qatar) should break away and form their own knew international football organisation. Pretty sound idea even though I'm not naive enough to believe it would ever happen.
