Today we are greeted with the wonderful news that Sepp Blatter will be leaving his post as Head of Fifa in 2015. I sincerely hope that he wont be re-elected in June however I think he will stay on.
Only when Blatter leaves this post can real change happen. He is stubborn and has discredited the game with the goal-line technology issue. The new head of Fifa needs to be visionary. Football needs to change and a strong leader is needed if this to happen. Goal line technology is obviously a must and needed as soon as possible. It is ludicrous that a game worth millions and watched by millions all over the world does not have technology used in it. The World Cup issue of England's goal, Luis Suarez's hand ball and even before with Ireland being cheated. It shows how arrogant Fifa and the football governing bodies are that they feel football does not need such technology. It is used in both codes of rugby as well as cricket and tennis so why not football. Their arguments against are weak as they worry about slowing the game down. Seriously, it takes 30 seconds. Also I would rather wait 30 seconds and get the correct decision then have an instant wrong one. With the game worth so much and tensions running high it has to be used. If it is used then arguments will decrease. It would also take the pressure off the referees who have a hard enough job as it is. An official up in the stands should not be able to be intimidated by the on field players or the crowd. Extra officials have shown they do nothing, it is a moronic idea.
Bin Hammam seems to have plenty of ideas and I do feel we need change and this man should be given the chance to change things. Fifa is a joke, the World Cup voting showed that. It is so amateurish. The corruption is laughable as is so blatant. However not just Blatter but Michel Platini needs to go. He is another holding Fifa back. Dumb and dumber.
Blatter at his best.
