I so hope that Sepp Blatter is not a typical Swiss?...
In 2004 he says "Let the women play in more feminine clothes like they do in volleyball. They could, for example, have tighter shorts. Female players are pretty, if you excuse me for saying so, and they already have some different rules to men – such as playing with a lighter ball. That decision was taken to create a more female aesthetic, so why not do it in fashion?”
Then, in 2010, as regards homosexual fans attending the Quatar World Cup in 2022 - a Country where Homosexuality is banned - he comes out with "“I would say they should refrain from any sexual activities.”
He awarded the 2022 World Cup to a Country that bans Homosexuality???
Now, today he's just raised the bar!
When asked, during an interview on CNN, whether racism exists in the game he believed it had been eradicated from the game!!
"I would deny it. There is no racism," said the Swiss. "There is maybe one of the players towards another, he has a word or a gesture which is not the correct one......But also the one who is affected by that, he should say that this is a game. We are in a game, and at the end of the game, we shake hands, and this can happen, because we have worked so hard against racism and discrimination."
What a total buffoon...He should resign now..
I suppose living in a Country that has never been to war may explain his incredibly insular views...
