if you are a fan of the beautiful game or not and have been keeping up on fifa news of late; you may have had the chance to hear the latest 'musings' on racism by fifas' own, sepp blatter. as usual he never ceases to amaze. thanks to our friends at the guardian, they put together a 'best of sepps thoughts' on all the hard hitting issues in the world of soccer.
"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" – Sepp on racism.
"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?" – Sepp on feminism.
"I think in football there's too much modern slavery in transferring players or buying players here and there, and putting them somewhere" – Sepp on His civil rights movement.
"I would say they should refrain from any $exual activities" – Sepp on gay fans in Qatar.
"Listen, this is a special approach in the Anglo-Saxon countries. If [EBJT and Wayne Bridge] had happened in, let's say Latin countries, then I think he would have been applauded" – Sepp on marriage.
as you can see, he is not out of touch at all. well done sepp...well done.
