Admin Lineker Posted June 3, 2015 Admin Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 We can't replay France '98. Not sure Gazza can relive the disappointment all over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Lineker Posted June 4, 2015 Admin Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Warner telling all would be huge. He was essentially #2 for so long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidMarrio Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Snitches get stitches! It makes me sad knowing that about France 98 now, that was my first world cup (I was 2/3 for USA 94) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benji Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Not that you should judge a book by its cover, but holy shit this picture from the BBC article is the slimiest looking bunch of men I've seen convened in one picture since PTTS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainiac Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 I don't know much about many of these men apart from Warner & Webb, but Nicolas Leoz is the dickhead who said he'd make sure England won the 2018 World Cup bid... but only if we gave him a knighthood (which we quite rightly refused), so he deserves whatever's coming his way. They all do really. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy right now than the top brass at FIFA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanky316 Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 To be honest a knighthood was a smaller bribe then we were having to pay out for losing world cup bids shortly after the Olympics and they're given out like confetti anyway so it would have been worth it.

Whisper Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Snitches get stitches! It makes me sad knowing that about France 98 now, that was my first world cup (I was 2/3 for USA 94) Man, World Cup 94 was the best. England weren't in it, so I supported Saudi Arabia and Bulgaria. Good times. Completed that sticker book too! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noah Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Does Costas have a secondary career as the invisible man or did the memory card on their camera just run out of space when it came time to take his picture? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunnar hendershow Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Ireland was paid 5 million Euros to keep quiet about Thierry Henry's uncalled handball in 2010 World Cup qualifiers. http://screamer.deadspin.com/fifa-paid-ireland-not-to-sue-over-thierry-henrys-handba-1709035034 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobfoc Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 The dramatic background music in the Jack Warner video seems a little over-the-top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZJ Penn Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 To be fair, if you fill FIFA with the opposition then it's just as slimy. Luis Figo, David Ginola and Michel Platini look they could be running a human trafficking ring in Taken 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCO Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Ireland was paid 5 million Euros to keep quiet about Thierry Henry's uncalled handball in 2010 World Cup qualifiers. http://screamer.deadspin.com/fifa-paid-ireland-not-to-sue-over-thierry-henrys-handba-1709035034 I remember that being mentioned at the time though. It was basically an out of court settlement for loss of earnings, for once I don't think it can be considered corrupt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZJ Penn Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Ugh how is this Ireland settlement headline news? They basically settled out of court based on "strong legal advice". They've even had the Irish FA president on the radio saying "this is fair", played it in the news piece and in the next breath linked it to corruption.
