This 'idea' would actually be an effective one... If there was any corruption at FIFA in the first place. It's clean. Honest. Come on, people. Wake up! FIFA's very own independent, non-independent investigator found nothing. The organisation is clean as a whistle. It's highest members just receive a lot of 'birthday presents' from foreign relatives. Is Figo denying family as the most important aspect in life? His facade is faltering. And this runs further afield. Not only have FIFA been cleared, but the perfectly legitimate payments to Qatar have been thoroughly explained. Sort of. Maybe. And the Russians? Well, unfortunately all of their data regarding their World Cup bid was lost after their computers were mysteriously destroyed. But there's really nothing shady about that. Not at all. Nope. However, England hosting a group of Trinidad & Tobago youngsters was wholly unacceptable and they should be punished to the full extent of the law.
