Much like most people remember where they were when the Bokke won the 1995 Rugby World Cup, so will fans of football remember the precise moment they heard Sepptic Blatter was resigning as the head honcho at FIFA. What a time to be alive, good people, let the corrupt officials quiver in their boots.
As the noose tightens around Sepp Blatter’s neck let’s remember him quitting his post is not a noble deed, it is the desperate act of a rat trying to abandon a sinking ship. Allow me a mid-90’s movie reference here and let me say that his ship is ploughing towards an iceberg of corruption, a monument to greed so deep-rooted in the organisation he led for 17 years that, like a naughty teenager, we know only the tip.
Anyway enjoy the moment he announced his resignation above. He will still be around for at least the next four months as FIFA readies for an emergency re-election but, as this soon-to-be iconic picture depicts, the exit door beckons.
