Blame Valdimir Putin for my mention of Sepp Blatter today, even though I vowed to not mention the oh-so-great-one today- not to be confused with the other man in the news today, the special one, turned the happy one, turned Jose Morurinho the very unhappy former manager of Chelsea, owned by the Russia zillionaire Roman Abramovich. As an aside there is an interesting story there. Abramovich is understood to be part of Putin's very privileged inner circle. He was alleged to be instrumental in Putin becoming President. When Russia was awarded the World Cup, Putin suggested that Abramovich opens his cheque book and help pay for it.
But I definitely digress. Putin said today that Blatter should receive a Nobel Peace Prize for all the work he's done for world football. Putin also said that Donald Trump is "bright and talented".
Enough said.
