Title: Blatter and platini fraudsters. Was it ever in doubt?
Post by: normal rules on November 02, 2021, 09:57:33 pm

Former Fifa officials Sepp Blatter and Michel Platini have been charged with fraud and other offences in Switzerland.
Swiss prosecutors say Mr Blatter unlawfully arranged a transfer of two million Swiss francs ($2.19m; £1.6m) to Mr Platini in 2011.
Prosecutors say the payment "damaged Fifa's assets and unlawfully enriched Platini".
Mr Blatter and Mr Platini now face trial at a court in Bellinzona.
If found guilty of the charges, the pair could receive prison sentences of several years or fines.

2 blokes as honest as the day is long....have they not shown selfless devotion to promoting the beautiful game, with not a thought to personal advantage?

You just don't know what's coming next.
It's about as likely as Bozo telling lies and hoping everyone forgets!

Someone should wrap them in bin liners and dump them in a canal. Bent as nine bob note and of no benefit to society. Although admittedly Platini was a genius on a football pitch. Such a shame greed eventually proved his primary driver.

You would have thought Platini would have made enough money out of his football.  Disgusting really

Again people on this forum Hanging, Drawing and Quartering people even before they have been proven guilty in a court of law.

Innocent until proven guilty
