BLATTER GOES WOOING AGAIN !!!

Sepp Blatter, aged 75, after 12 years as President is seeking to be re-elected for another term of 4 years.  He promises this will be the last time that he seeks re-election !!!

He will woo with all the ardour he has, his old cronies of the last few years.  He will make promises with all the sincerity he can muster.  Will that change anything if he is re-elected  ?

Could he again promise the next World Cup (in 2026) to another unexpected country ?  Would there not be a revolution in FIFA ?

There are many unsolved problems in the modern game of football that have been negected for too long;  anyone can add to the following list:-   

 -  Will he introduce new FIFA laws ?
 -  Will he introduce video technology like in other sports ?
 -  Will he in any way protect referees ?
 -  What will he do with the Monetary reserves FIFA has ?
 -  Will the voting system in FIFA remain totally secret ?
 -  Will there be age limits for members of the Executive committee ?
 -  Will the number of members entitled to vote increase ?
 -  Will the remuneration packages of leading FIFA managers be rendered public ?
 -  Will the FIFA statutes be changed ?

These are some of the questions Sepp Blatter has neglected but must address when he goes wooing for votes !!!  Sepp Blatter is not the only candidate for his succession.  Bin Hammam of Qatar is the other candidate. There is therefore hope that there can be changes !!!
