The resignation of Sepp Blatter was long overdue. The hijacking of football by a clique of self-serving officials is a rot that goes all the way down from world governing body to continental level and to the national associations that make the the 209 members of FIFA.
That 133 members voted for Sepp Blatter to stay on as president says everything about the cesspool that football has become.
This should be the first step in the wholesale cleaning of football at all levels to give the game leadership that is honest, has integrity and that puts football first, above personal gain.
