Football, say the pundits, is a game of two halves. Try telling that to FIFA boss Sepp Blatter who told the press, "Football is not in a crisis, only some difficulties." Remind you of the Winter of Discontent? Crisis, what crisis? This game is already in extra time as the allegations continue to mount.
Sponsors such as Coca-Cola and Adidas have already raised concerns. "The current allegations ... are distressing and bad for the sport." "... The negative tenor of public debate is neither good for football nor for FIFA nor its president."
