Breaking News : FIFA suspends Greece !
« on: July 03, 2006, 04:11:05 PM »
FIFA has decided to temporarily expel Greek football teams from international matches ! By this verdict, Greek teams will be unable to play qualification matches for the Champions League ! The reason behind is failure of Greek Footbal Federation (HFF) to meet the FIFA standards, especially the independence of the decision making body. Greece is said to have been warned to conduct 'free' elections for football federation .

I'm shocked to see such a grave penalty from FIFA. I wonder what will follow after all the bribing scandal in Italy.

Well, you can rest assured that it won't be a similar penalty. Italy are one of the "big boys" of football. FIFA won't dare ban them.
Greece are not considered a "big" side, despite winning Euro 2004.
