    First we hear that the Guptas are calling the shots and now FIFA exposes our corrupt 2010 World Cup bid – how was your Wednesday evening?

    Football’s ruling party has now detailed exactly how we went about buying those hosting rights in a court submission, a submission that demands restitution under US law for a range of fraudulent acts.

    Just the $10 million bribe from our side, with TimesLive outlining those methods:

    “Defendant [Jack] Warner and his family had already established close ties to South Africa during South Africa’s failed bid to host the 2006 FIFA World Cup. For example, Daryan Warner had organized a series of friendly matches among CONCACAF teams to be played in South Africa, relying on his father’s network of contacts there.”

    The claim goes on to state that Daryan Warner “served as his father’s bagman, traveling to a hotel in Paris, France to receive a briefcase with $10,000 in cash from a high-ranking South African bid committee official and immediately returning to Trinidad and Tobago to give it to Defendant Warner.”

    Describing Warner as having “strong illicit ties to the South African bid committee”, FIFA states categorically for the first time that “the South Africans offered a more attractive bribe of $10 million in exchange for Warner’s, Blazer’s, and a third Executive Committee member’s votes.”

    FIFA say: “Warner and his co-conspirators lied to FIFA about the nature of the payment, disguising it as support for the benefit of the “African Diaspora” in the Caribbean region, when in reality it was a bribe.”

    “They disguised and funneled the bribe money through the financial accounts of FIFA, member associations, and the 2010 FIFA World CupTM local organizing committee.

    Come now, you never really believed that whole African Diaspora payment, did you? Of course Warner and that corrupt pal of his Chuck Blazer were siphoning money away, the two of them are so corrupt they could slot right into the ANC and no one would notice.
