1. Corruption, before it began you could smell the corruption, it was obvios that FIFA were more interested in making money than providing a football tournament .
2. It wasn't a tournament for the people, loyal fans were ripped off by everything from ticket prices, hotel prices, even transport prices, it was about money and making Americans rich.
3. It was a tournament for the American middles classes, those that could afford to take their family to games at £300 each a pop and fork out for replica shirts on top of it
4. Certain teams seemed to be treated with more favourable treatment than others, it seemed that there was a desire to see the big teams in the semi's and final.
5. Time for UEFA to pull out of FIFA and indeed all the major nations follow suit and form a new international body. |  |

It was pretty much what I expected when I got out there.
Though I had some sympathy for the hydration breaks when I was in Miami.
The heat and humidity were really stifling.
The World Cup has however fallen behind the Euros in terms of excitement and atmosphere.
I watched 20 minutes of the Final, and the atmosphere sounded non-existent. £3,500 for the cheapest ticket will see to that. |  |
