Post by: not on facebook on June 28, 2017, 01:29:42 am
Iam I pushing the panic button far too quick about the English FA or are just as bad as the FIFA allegations that came out sometime back

Two wrongs don't make a right do they.

I suppose we were all thinking that major voting corruption would be uncovered and that we would be whiter than white.

There was something in the news about the FA knowing things about the young players case biased on crewe FC which was as recent as 2005 and did fcuk all about it.

I don't think the 2005 case was at crewe but other clubs

Yes you are pushing the panic button too soon. Whilst the FA were not completely innocent of trying to court favour neither were any of the competing nstions. To confuse that with the wholesale corruptiom endemic throughout FIFA is wrong.

The strange thing about this Garcia report claims to be that the countries that didn't cooperate (or claimed to have lost documents) like Russia and Spain seem to have been defaulted to innocent of bribery alllegations whereas the ones that have admitted trying to gain favour (England and Australia) have been named and shamed.
