Blatter Slams Taylor tackle

[GeneralBurk]

How on earth did this guy ever become the president of FIFA!? HOW?!

Surely the president of FIFA should be someone who is well respected within the game, ie a legend of the game, not some nobody with views that makes me question whether he actually knows anything about football!

Because the English FA decided to knife Lennart Johannsen in the back with his nomination for FIFA President even though as UEFA President he had advocated England's return to European club competition. All because he declared that he would be backing Germany's bid for the 2006 World Cup. England were supposed to give the German's a free run as part of the deal for Euro 96 and then reneged on the deal.

Now we have to deal with a muppet who thinks bigger goals and rotating the World Cup are great ideas.
