Good news at last, Hope Sepp Blatter goes next.
Had a punt with Betfred they would both see hell by the start of 2017
Good odds.

"Can the dead be defamed?
In short, no. The dead cannot currently be defamed under English law. This is because defamation, whether it is libel or slander, is a personal action which cannot be assigned or brought on someone’s behalf. The exception to this rule is if the person subject to defamation is a minor, in which case a parent or guardian can bring the claim on their behalf. Where the deceased is defamed and a friend or relative is also identified in the statement, or the statement reflects upon their reputation, then there is the potential for that relative or friend to bring a claim for defamation."
love Google...

FIFA has been involved well before the Blatter years in corruption. Won't lose any sleep over any of these fuckers. Same with UEFA. Rest assured it will happen again.
