he's making his speech as we type, apparently he's staying on until they elect a new president (talk sport are claiming an exclusive). | | | |

One of the hastiest called press conferences I have ever seen. There were very few press in attendance, and several major networks didn't pick it up till last second when they saw what was going on. | | | | Login to get fewer ads
Blatter set to resign on 18:16 - Jun 2 with 4650 views | Pinky | Maybe the FA and the DFB threatening to set up an alternative world cup has got to them. FIFA are more corrupt than the worst African government. You can't force structural adjustment on a football organisation, but you can force a bloody tough investigation. Glad to see the Yanks taking the initiative and leading this. Au revoir Sepp! | | | |

I think it is going to be difficult to shove a puppet in this time to protect the alleged guilty ones. The FBI , the big hitters in UEFA and the press wil be all over this. I suspect there will be very few places to hide on this one. | |

I think he knew that has soon as he stepped on American soil next month he'd be arrested, plus it looks like one of those arrested who has pleaded guilty as spilled the beans, and he's fooked. | |

I think the threat of withdrawal was a factor. Greg Dyke has just said he thinks it could also be related to what has been uncovered (by the FBI?) recently might also have an effect. | |

That's been talked about a lot over here because he was due to be in Canada for the Women's World Cup Final, and the US and Canada have a very good relationship when it comes to legal maneuvers I think many were expecting he would at least be questioned by authorities. | | | |
Blatter set to resign on 18:47 - Jun 2 with 4483 views | Flashberryjack | Blatter going is great news, but the investigation team need to keep poking around FIFA's financial dealings to see if they can flush out some of the other fat rats that inhabit that cesspit of an organisation. | |

Given the way he was crowing and punching the air after his 'election', something must have changed radically. Let's hope the yanks really get into them, otherwise it will just be another head of a corrupt hydra in his place. | |

That's not what US Television is reporting. ABC News over here is reporting from sources that the FBI is investigating him as part of the probe. He is not under Swiss investigation | | | |

Oh right, it shouldn't make any difference with him resigning, if he's been up to naughties he's still got it to come. | |

It ain't over yet. More will be arrested more will resign. Putin won't be happy though as blatter was his man. God bless American | |
