Sepp Blatter Puts His Foot In It Again!

Once again the buffoon Sepp Blatter has overstepped his authority by referring to Manchester Utd's position with Cristiano Ronaldo as tantamount to "modern day slavery".

Now, a fit young man, earning millions a year for training 2-3 hours a day and playing a game he loves, can hardly be compared with the 100s of thousands, or even millions, of people who use their life savings to be whisked thousands of miles across continents by people traffickers -- modern day slavers -- for a better life. Many then end up in debt to the traffickers and outside the protection of the law. THAT IS MODERN DAY SLAVERY!

How dare Blatter! Shame on him! He should apologize at once. But he won't.

Putting aside your views on whether you think Cristiano Ronaldo is being somewhat ungrateful to Manchester Utd given that he's under contract, or, is being perfectly reasonable in wanting to try his luck as David Beckham did at Real Madrid; or that Manchester Utd is being unreasonable in wanting him to see out his contract; it's a business decision that will be reached between the club, the player and Real Madrid.

As President of FIFA Sepp Blatter has no right making comments that could influence such a business decision. But it isn't any surprise. This megalomaniac wants to control everything about the game and shape it in his own image.

No doubt it won't be long before I'm blogging about another Sepp Blatter bloomer.
