Fifa The FA the Latest twist In A Modern Day Farce

[seestyle]

I had a strange thought whilst watching the Infamous SeppBlatterconference the other day when he used the words there is no crisis at fifa . I was reminded ofa certain Blackadder QuoteThis is a crisis. A large crisis. In fact, if you got a moment, its a twelve-story crisis with a magnificent entrance hall, carpeting throughout, 24-hour portage, and an enormous sign on the roof, saying This Is a Large CrisisPeople are sacked then re instated allegation after the allegation. The fifageneral secretary himself says the world cup was brought then produced a rather farcical statement to back track on it. You get the picture SeppBlatterthe president Chad Greenway Jersey of FIFA a huge global organisation round the world blind to the faults ofthose around himor simply choosing to turn a blind eye to it. Blatter is a born survivor and anyone out there who thought his time had come this past week or so was a victim of wishful thinking.The Man is a master at playing football politics he builds relationships round the world he knows who to flatter and has built up a insurmountable power base. When he got voted back in this week in a shameful one man on apaper no choice ballot, countle s reforms were put were brought forward.The top one of these was the world cup vote being taken of the executivecommittee. This was rather a pointle s reform anyway as the executivecommitteestill gets to decide on the short list? So much for reform then?Wether any of these reforms take place or are a little more than mere smoke and mirrors is largely Josh Bynes Jersey irrelevant asthe great strategist of the world of football has survived and was always going to do so.The FA has also played its part in this grand farce too we pa sed the opportunity up when we had a chance to put a reform candidate against Blatter and Bin Hammam. That really was a time for action and sadly we reallymi sed the boat on that one it certainly wasnt our finest hour. North Carolina Tar Heels Jersey Sale We sat back in the shadows and didnt take a stand till far too late when it really was too little too late .Yes FIFA needs to be more transparent that particular argument has been going on yearsand an independent review or body to look at some of the practices or allegations in FIFA would be a help too.But If I can take a few Minutes to look at our own FA. Part of our problem I believe is the revolving door mentality behind our senior figures from all the different chief executives in charge to now the Chairman of the fa David Bernstien. Do we really know who is in charge at the fa? who holds the reins? whos accountable for all of this?Do we really believe he is the man to fit to lead our fa, to take care of the best interests of our game? We seem incapable of making friends andmaintaining those on the international stage. Though to be fair to Bernstein when the FA has so many existingproblems the chairman seems to be the least of them at the minute.The FA seem now more than ever to be stuck downto the whims of the big clubs you only have to look out from the various pull outs from the various Cazzie Russell Jersey international squads. When the self interestof the clubs is over-riding the concerns of our national games its a concern the FA needs to deal with.We need strong men inside the FA who are prepared to take the decisions that are needed to improve our standing in world football and get rid of this perceived arrogance which is muddying our standing amongst our fellow members in Uefa.There are some signs of improvement the work of Gareth Southgate is now getting some recognition and it looks as if its beginning to get recognised and the improvements that need to be made and being made. Smaller pitchs and games from the kids Miami Hurricanes Jersey Sale up to try to produce an improved technical type of player.These are the type of people we need back in the FA a younger vibrant strong personality. Otherwise the FA will always be thisrudderle s shipwithout acaptain and we canneverhave a hope of ever improvingfifa if our own house is so shambolic.Thanks for reading Im always keen on discu sing anything football and am on twitter @wisemanalex
