FIFA - All that’s wrong with football

It is not ‘just in’ - it is an investigation that has been going on since last year, relating to the fact that their sponsorship and commercial activities have been offshore with a Miami company for a few years.

There are enough fabrications, AI hallucinations, and clickbait headlines out there that the caution is more than merited.

It’s pathetic and sad but should surprise no one. The self-serving and corruption governs everything.

We fans need to do mass campaign and protest with huge banners at every international match against FIFA. Get all the national supporter federations together and expose FIFA.

IOC will not investigate Infantino over Trump interference allegations

I scratch your back, you scratch mine.

Human rights group FairSquare announced earlier this month it had submitted a complaint to the IOC regarding Infantino, which included reference to FIFA’s decision to defer a World Cup suspension for United States striker Folarin Balogun after Trump personally asked Infantino to review the red card.

Infantino is an IOC member but a spokesperson for the organisation said that because the complaint centred on FIFA decisions and governance, its ethics commission concluded it did not have jurisdiction to investigate.
