Cleveland-Saint Posted July 29, 2013 Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 (edited) The twelve disciples and their Cypriot leader. (and a mystery person?) Chief disciplinary inspector Chris Georghiades (Cyprus) Disciplinary inspectors Nodar Akhalkatsi (Georgia) Faruk Baştürk (Turkey) Holger Blask (Germany) Anna Bordiugova (Ukraine) David Casserly (Republic of Ireland) Karl Dhont (Belgium) Josef Geisler (Austria) João Leal (Portugal) Miguel Liétard (Spain) Jean-Samuel Leuba (Switzerland) Prune Rocipron (France) Peter J van Zunderd (Netherlands) Not a bad job, fly around Europe watching football all year long, take a few bribes from the clubs to ignore the odd firework or swordfight in the stands and then punish clubs you don't like. I jest of course. Checking their backgrounds they mostly seem to be lawyers. (Hence jest comment to cover myself). example, Anna Bordiugova (Ukraine) - http://www.linkedin.com/pub/anna-bordiugova/21/b82/239 - impressive background and still retains that chiseled chin from her days on the Ukrainian Olympic team. http://sportslegalaid.com.ua/index_en.html We also have a French prune and a Belgian Dhont in the mix. Not a brit in sight of course. When I searched for Prune Rocipron I found a Turkish website up in arms on this gang, talk of targeting, discrimination all sorts going on. I guess these are the top crew, then you have an army of 'observers' out there for the FC Minsk type games and then this gang swan in for the finals? Not sure how it all works but couldn't sleep. Anyway, time to climb out of the rabbit hole. Edited July 29, 2013 by Texas-Saint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Neutral Posted July 29, 2013 Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 Not a Brit in sight, but are the "home nations" not guaranteed one of the FIFA Vice-Presidencies? I'm pretty sure a lot of the other Fifa countries are not too happy at that . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBill Posted July 29, 2013 Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 No Italian either... I suppose they try and get who they think are the best guys and balance out the nationalities as far as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
