Ex-FIFA vice president Warner leaves jail in ambulance
Former FIFA vice president Jack Warner left a Trinidad jail by ambulance Thursday, a day after he was charged in a U.S. corruption case that has led to the arrests of more than a dozen international soccer officials and businessmen.
Judicial officer Abraham Ali said Warner complained of exhaustion and was not able to face questions from reporters gathered for several hours outside the jail. His lawyers could not be immediately reached for comment.
Warner, an opposition member of Parliament in this twin-island nation, surrendered to authorities Wednesday and was granted a $395,000 bond but spent the night in jail. He faces eight counts in the U.S., including conspiracy to defraud and to engage in racketeering. He has not entered a plea and is expected to appear in court in July. A judge ordered Warner to surrender his passport and report to police twice a week.
Warner was forced out of FIFA in 2011 over a bribery scandal but has denied any wrongdoing.
It is unclear where Warner went after he left the jail, but officials with his Independent Liberal Party said in a statement that he would speak at a community meeting Thursday night.
Trinidad's attorney general, Garvin Nicholas, said the U.S. has two months to issue a formal extradition request. He said his office has been working with the U.S. Justice Department for about two years on Warner's investigation.
By Elchele Go To PostNah, you think so because the big countries are against Blatter, but the meaningless countries are all in for Blatter to keep the money flowing. All those caribbean islands out there, for example, there are like 30 of them.
His people think he has 60 votes from outside UEFA.
We will see about that but if true then it could be close.
By Lunatic Go To PostDamn Footy-Slaent really doesn't like the Carib connects. Poor Jeffrey Webb totally thrown asunder by his British compatriots.Sorry but aside from Jamaica, the rest of Caribbean countries are totally irrelevant in football. They should have like 5 votes max on these kind of things.

This kind of thinking is how Blatter has gained so much power.

Asia and Africa are almost enough for Blatter to keep control.

By Vivalabanter Go To PostAny of the Norn Irish people watch tonight's Panorama?Yeah, at this stage we're only surprised at the scale and the people involved, not that it's happening.
Probably something which is well known and much discussed within Ireland but I was shocked by it all. The Troubles is such an interesting period, really need to read into it in more detail.
im surprised platini's gambit worked, he may be a corrupt old cunt but at least he knows how to play the people
Dat Marco Polo Del Nero (CBF's actual president)

Reminds me of one of the greatest quotes from Carlos Alberto Parreira: "CBF is an example. It's the Brazil that worked"
What a country.

By wedward Go To PostTLOU killed gaming for me.The shitness of this post is disappointing since it's coming from a great user.
It's a shit movie and a boring videogame.
When is HL3 coming out?
The Half Life series is one of the most overrated in existence. I mean it was just an above average game...that is all. Why it holds this holy position in the gaming world is very strange.
By Eike Go To PostFIFA, you are scum.Morning, FF.
By Fergie Go To PostThey're definitely making a movie of this.

It's called influence. Look it up.
By nate Go To PostHe'll come with huge wages, a fuck off signing on fee and a similarly huge agent fee, as well as a tendency to not bother defending. An upgrade on Valencia he may well be, but I don't see myself getting giddy over it. C'est la vie.can united and madrid fans stop pretending like they care about fees and wage bills
thanks
love,
everyone else

I am sorry Lightning. I really wanted to like TLOU :(
Won't apologize for my love of HL. Ep 2 is my favorite game ever.

In a 20-page investigation headlined “Qatargate”, the respected magazine France Football said that “acts of collusion and corruption” shaped the much-criticised FIFA decision to award the 2022 competition to the tiny, oil-rich Gulf state.
Among the alleged “acts of collusion”, the magazine listed a secret meeting called by President Sarkozy at the Elysée Palace on 23 November 2010. Ten days later – to worldwide astonishment – Qatar was chosen by a FIFA executive committee meeting in Zurich to host the World Cup in June-July 2022, despite summer temperatures in the Gulf of up to 50C.
Mr Sarkozy’s lunch guests included the crown prince of Qatar, Tamin bin Haman al-Thani, Michel Platini, president of the European Football Association (EUFA), and a representative of the investment fund which owned the then struggling French football club, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).
France Football said that Mr Platini – a star of the France team of the 1980s – came under pressure at the lunch to switch his vote from the United States to Qatar. In exchange, the magazine alleged, the Qataris discussed the possibility that they would buy Paris Saint-Germain and create a new TV sports channel in France to compete with Canal Plus, a channel that Mr Sarkozy loathed. Before he became president in 2007, Mr Sarkozy was a match-going PSG fan. The magazine did not directly allege that a deal was struck at this meeting but said “all the elements” were “discussed”.
Mr Platini has admitted before that Mr Sarkozy asked him to switch his vote. He issued a statement angrily denying this was part of a deal involving PSG. “To say that my choice… was part of a deal between the French state and Qatar is pure speculation… and lies,” he said. “I do not rule out legal action against anyone who casts doubt on the honesty of my vote.”
Mr Sarkozy’s office did not comment on the story.

By Clydefrog Go To PostIt's called influence. Look it up.
It certainly was not this pinnacle of vidya games it has been made to be. It was an above average game, with a decent story and mechanics. I wonder how much the period it released in colored the opinions at the time, back then we had the X-Files, Stargate, Babylon 5, Star Trek and several high production sci-fi movies hitting our screens. It was probably a right time kind of thing. There were many games at the time which were in fact superior such as Metal Gear Solid, Grim Fandango, Zelda OOT, Resi 2, FO2, Baldur's Gate and StarCraft just to name a few.
But to each their own.
