I'd quite like to see a world cup sponsored by Cocaine and Chainsaws, it could lead to a whole host of marketing opportunities.

Transcripts wouldn't do it justice.
Sad thing is, it is so accurate, it's appalling.
This. FIFA is an ugly, ugly organisation.
I love the sausage analogy - sums up exactly how I feel about the World Cup. Every time I feel excited about it, one half of my brain reminds me about the w@nkers that are profiting from it and suddenly I feel joyless again. I have a general love hate relationship with modern football currently.
Good video, thanks.
A social media campaign to end this is long overdue. All of us should boycott every company that sponsors the WC, and more importantly, we should be spreading the word.

Remember they are a non profit organisation with a billion dollar rainy day fund.

Great video. Made me laugh out loud more than once
T'is a shame nobody has 'fixtures' this, as you're also missing out on JO's take of the killing of Bin Laden.

I like the apparently really really bad movie about FIFA. The imdb summary of the film reads as:

I like the apparently really really bad movie about FIFA. The imdb summary of the film reads as:
Once football was all about small boys in the park, jumpers for goalposts. Rush goalie. Two at the back, three in the middle, four up front. Passion, fun, enjoyment. This is the story of the men who took football from that and changed it. A group of wholly honest and ethical men who had a dream and, to achieve that dream, established the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA). Driven by their determination to lead football into a brighter, bigger future, the trustworthy and wholly honest Sepp Blatter, Jules Rimet, and Joao Havelange overcame their doubts and fought obstacles and scandals to make FIFA and the World Cup a reality. Spanning the tumultuous 20th Century, this timeless saga will tell the story of how an organization currently mired in accusations of scandal and corruption started their journey to that destination.
