Wondering if article 84 deals with receiving large brown envelopes stuffed with cash. 
 

Going to have to find time to read up on this further as think this was an appeal after their original complaint was rejected.

Fitba tournaments should be decided on the field, not in the courts.

The fair thing to do would be to replay the final.

I think that would be a result acceptable to everyone.

The obvious thing that should have happened is that the referee should have abandoned the game when Senegal left the pitch. It is absurd to change the result 2 months later

Just occurred to me that I had money on Morocco to win this tournament. Wonder if it will pay out now.
