If you want an interesting read about CONCACAF and Trinidad football head Jack Warner, his interesting relationship with FIFA President Sepp Blatter, and his persistent attacks against English Football, Brain Glanville gives his two cents on the subject here.
It's really no secret to those who are knowledgeable and care about the game in Europe. England has and always will be the standard of excellence on and off the pitch when it comes to football not only on the continent, but in the world. Corrupt individuals obsessed with greed like Jack Warner have no defense but to make vile and attacking comments to divert attention from their exploits.
England doesn't have match-fixing scandals nor suitcase incidents. England doesn't have shady dealings where players are owned by two and three teams that pass that player between them in exchange for imaginary amounts of money so they can cook their books. England doesn't play the 'I'll scratch your back if you scratch mine' game that FIFA likes to play. Jack Warner does and not for the better of the game, but for the better of his bank account.
Jack Warner is a prime example of everything that's wrong with football, but who cares, right? It's only the integrity of the game that suffers in the end. If you want to read more on the subject, I highly recommend Andrew Jennings site, Transparency in Sport.
