Blatter Suspension makes no sense - quelle surprise!
Is it the BBC report or is it FiFa (or is it me)? The report is that Blatter et al have been 'provisionally' suspended as a punishment without anything having been proved against them. No due process. Are they currently suspended or is it provisional on something? What is the purpose of the suspension? Under English Law a suspension from work relates to an investigation. What a mess!
Fifa: Sepp Blatter, Michel Platini & Jerome Valcke suspended
Fifa has provisionally suspended its president Sepp Blatter, secretary general Jerome Valcke and vice-president Michel Platini for 90 days.
The punishments were handed out by the ethics committee of football's world governing body, which is investigating the three over corruption allegations.
It also banned ex-Fifa vice-president Chung Mong-joon for six years.
But Platini - and Chung - are still hoping to replace Blatter when he steps down as president in February.
Explaining its decision to ban Blatter, Platini and Valcke, the ethics committee said: "The grounds for these decisions are the investigations that are being carried out by the investigatory chamber of the ethics committee."
The three are banned from any football activity in the interim. They deny any wrongdoing. ”
