So Sep Blatter has labelled the FA "racists" for demanding a recount on the 2018 and 2022 bids if suggested corruption was proved to be correct. Can anyone explain how and why this would be racist? Surely the FA didn't state that a particular nation well known for bribery was involved?! The issue was with different members from different nations so if they had stated something against those that had yet to be proved then surely the most it could be would be libelous instead.
Why is that anything said by an English person is automatically racist these days? I blame UKIP as they clearly aren't helping matters there!!! This whole situation stinks and the whole thing should be re-run openly. As both bids were chosen at the same time and, the fact we pulled out of 2022 to concentrate on the 2018 bid instead, surely both should be done again. Everyone knows Blatter and FIFA are corrupt but the attempt to pass the smell on to us cannot be allowed to happen!
