FIFA and Sepp Blatter
May 31, 2011Leaders who have been at the helm for a while, sometimes hang on too long. Often they feel they still have a lot still to give. This appears to be the situation with the outgoing president of FIFA. Not only is he the only candidate in the new election, but he does not think FIFA is in crisis. He sees issues to be dealt with and he feels the ‘football family’ will cope.
This upsets everyone in the UK, not least because of the scale of the rejection of our world cup bid. The FA, itself not an organisation without blemish or questions, thinks at this late hour that the Presidential election should be delayed. Most politicians who have spoken on the matter have already called for such a delay. It is, however, far from clear what the rest of the world thinks and since all countries from the largest and most powerful to the smallest and least known have in FIFA one thing in common, a single vote each, this matters. Two thirds of all of these would have to be in rebellion for a delay in the election to be mandated. That does not seem likely. Indeed nothing seems likely other than Sepp Blatter gaining another term.
Whether he will then mobilise his unchallenged authority to effect root and branch reform, is not a prospect in which many feel able to invest their hopes. It is perhaps, or is, the case that too much of FIFA is happy with the way things are. The power to effect change is too diffused and the authority to run football, whether through bribery or whatever, is too concentrated. A unique centre of influence rests with the sponsors. Some have expressed disquiet at the turn of events. If they shut off the cash flow, reform could come quite quickly.
