KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Whats all this with racism and Sepp Blatter?

I am no fan of his and there are many reasons he should be forced out but I dont quite understand why he is being called to resign for this issue.It appears all he meant was that handshkes at the end of football matches can help end racism on the pitch. Thats his opinion and we can debate all day whether its right or wrong but calling for his resignation? hogwash

After careful consideration of your post and the points pertaining within it I have to summaries it for my fellow Liverpool supports as:

What a load of sh1t jog on.

What would you have them do all take baths together?

A quick handshake?

My point is its his opinion. Whether game ending handshakes help or not is his opinion. That point can be argued all day and what fifa should do about racism on the pitch can be debated. However I see no reason to call for him to resign over it, thats laughable. He made no racist comment, he just gave his opinion as to what could help.

He is the head of football across the globe and doesn't understand the seriousness of racism,out of touch with the real world,he is a dinosaur and is corrupt to the core.Time for him to go.

just shut up man, what a joke this is.

The guy is a total tosser, and this sums him up as a person.
In effect, he is saying "sure call someone a N!gger in game, shake hands and its fine" That is a totally unacceptable comment from the head of FIFA and shows he doesn't take the situation seriously at all. It's another comment on the long list of Fk ups from that man and he needs to go-

As for his comments on homosexuality and women in football,he needs a good kicking to.

I think he realizes racism is serious. There are penalties for it already. He may have a very optimistic view of the power of players shaking hands and talking at the end of games but Im not sure what else fifa can do. They have promoted anti racism at the world cup and even held the world cup in Africa with another soon to follow in the middle east. I think the press and the blowhards are running wild with a handfull of dust calling it gold.
