UNITED CHAIRMAN CALLS FOR FIFA BREAK AWAY
United chairman Ken Bates is calling on the bigger footballing nations to consider breaking away from FIFA, following the double decision to hand the 2018 World Cup to Russia and the 2022 competition to Qatar.
The Elland Road chairman followed the announcement live on TV and branded the outcome as a joke.
"When it was announced we hooted with laughter and derision," the chairman told Yorkshire Radio.
"We are totally unimpressed. I'm of the opinion that the big European nations should resign from FIFA and start their own organisation.
"The whole of FIFA could then move to Moscow and live in retirement in a nice dacha in the woods surrounding the Russian capital.
"We heard Blatter babbling on about the 'Motherland'...I bet our other vote didn't come from him.
"FIFA is a waste of space. It's a money making organisation and I don't think they give a damn about football.
"I am seriously unhappy and at the same time I am contemptuous.
"The fact of the matter is we have the best stadiums and the best infrastructure. If you think of the disaster of the Champions League final in Moscow a couple of years ago when people were being billeted 100 miles away it's a joke.
"And as for Qatar - I always think someone is clearing their throat when they say that. How are they going to develop football? Australia, who have all the stadia and put a tremendous Olympics on, would have put on a great show.
"The only way to deal with FIFA is to withdraw from it and let them get on with it.
"It's a case of the tail wagging the dog. We have little Jack Warner standing in the corner, Oceania, the Caribbean, and the oil states. All that happens is they keep giving the votes to Blatter so he stays there in power.
"If they didn't have Spain, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom there wouldn't be a FIFA. There wouldn't be a UEFA for that matter."
When asked if each individual footballing nation should have a seperate vote, rather than FIFA's executive committee, the chairman dismissed the suggestion.
"If everyone had a vote there would only be more people to allegedly bribe," he said.
"Should the Bahamas have the same vote as England? Should Andorra have the same as Germany? No, it's rubbish, we should form an elite association of countries.
"FIFA are a two-bob organisation above any law and should be treated with the contempt they deserve."
