FIFA has given all 25 Caribbean associations 48 hours to provide statements about the events at the meeting in Trinidad which led to Mohamed Bin Hammam being banned for life for bribery.
The associations have been warned that “truthful and complete” reporting of the events is necessary with anyone not coming forward facing “the full range of sanctions”, which includes a life ban.
Qatari Bin Hammam, who was bidding for the presidency of world football’s governing body, was banned by FIFA’s ethics committee on Saturday after being found guilty of giving or offering cash gifts of around 40,000 US dollars each to the Caribbean associations. He has said he will appeal.
FIFA said in a statement: “FIFA has sent a letter yesterday 25 July to all CFU associations, asking the associations, their presidents, and any of their members with knowledge of anything that transpired during the meetings held on 10 and 11 May in Trinidad and Tobago, to provide and report all relevant information in their possession within 48 hours.
Is this the same PJ who was accusing Skerrit of corruption?
Tell me somebody!!!!!!!!!!
Lennox Linton should investigate that saga.
Do the right thing Mr John. You have been given a second chance at redemption! Do not let the Youths and sportsmen suffer.
Stand up and acknowledge what went down in T & T. If you took the money unbeknown to the members take your life ban. Don’t give Dominica a bad name for something you did.
FIFA EH JOKING. They banning left, right and center.
All you remember that song??
I singing Sankey, I singing Sankey …. Well I sinking Sankey all over town DFA days are done.. I singing Sankey now..
Only Mr John can change the chorus!!!
I hope mr John do have to ask the same “little boy” for help…lol cause like uncle jack de money done use. . ahahah Dominica i seeing a BAN is eminent
How does these Associations account for the money received? If it was not reported to the local membership, the money is kept by the people who received it. Please talk the truth and avoid spoiling your Country’s name. These are some of the reasons why people fight to remain in these so called voluntary organizations. ‘Corrupted set of people’. I await FIFA results.
Sad revelation, yet indicative of the political climate in the Caribbean.
Politics in the Caribbean is a lucrative business; ethics and integrity do not put food on ones table, bribes do!
C’mon Dominica, stand up and be counted. Our reputation is at stake.
I watchin’ still…..
SO WHY DID’NT DOMINICA MEET WITH THE INVESTIGATORS , IN THE INTEREST OF DISCLOSURE , MR JOHN AND THE DFA SHOULD LET THE PUBLIC KNOW , WE WAIT TO SEE WHERE THIS LEADS , I HOPE WITHOUT STAIN OR BLEMISH TO DOMINICA
……… Very well said (hmm) my friend
PJ I WILL CONTINUE TO ASK, ” DID YOU RECEIVE FUNDS AND WHAT DID YOU DO WITH IT?” FOR TOO LONG DOMINICA FOOTBALL HAS REMAIN AT THE SAME STAGE. YET STILL YOU ARE THE PRESIDENT. WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND THAT.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. It smelling.
Oh bother. trouble is headed our way. I just hope we don’t get a lifetime ban. I can’t even imagine what that would do to our football. http://www.soccernumber1.blogspot.com a football site by a dominican
If Mr John does not tell the truth that is where it’s heading!
Dominica will not be banned.
We on d bobol list!!!! I know for a fact, because that is what Dominica is ALL about now. Show me the money!!!!!
The valley rat coming for our local chapter head, i hope he ready to reveal it all, we waiting to hear his side of story.
footballers were warned about this before the last dfa election. They were advised to vote for Don to avoid sanctions against DA. Maybe now they will listen.
When will they learn that corruption will get them nowhere
Now the story starts:
