What a cop-out. It is not just because he is getting off - that is not the reason for the FIFA statement. The real reason for doing it this way is that if they had investigated him, other shit about other members would probably have come out of the woodwork. It is just a continuation of the sleeze of FIFA.

We criticised the MPs for claiming a few grand for a duckhouse or draining a moat. These FIFA guys seem to be fiddling numbers that make our MPs look like Mother Teresa.
