Yet another twist....
Less than four hours after FIFA published the report clearing Qatar & Russia of any wrong-doings in their respective bids but criticised England's 2018 bid, the FIFA appointed investigator has been quoted as saying the report "contains numerous materially incomplete and erroneous representations of the facts and conclusions".
What a load of spin bowlocks are we hearing from FIFA in their report and the corrupt bunch within that distasteful organisation.
Meanwhile, Fifa's 42-page report, a summary of the investigating lawyer's 430-page report, contained the following cracker:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The report noted that the Russian bid team made "only a limited amount of documents available for review".
According to the report, the Russian team hired computers that were subsequently destroyed, denying the inquiry access to email accounts.
"We were always confident that there could be nothing which would come out from this investigation," said Alexey Sorokin, the head of Russia's 2018 World Cup organising committee.

Well, yes! Destroy the evidence and make only a few documents available for review, no wonder Russia was always confident of nothing coming out of the investigation!
And Fifa can't see this? Completely unbelievable and unacceptable. Corruption by any other name.
