Saitama Gov. unleashes ticket trauma tirade at 'rotten' FIFA
Saitama Gov. Yoshihiko Tsuchiya called FIFA "rotten" for the fiasco that has witnessed most World Cup games in Japan played with thousands of empty seats but fans unable to buy tickets for games.

"(FIFA) doesn't have any way of confirming how many tickets it has sold for games. It's rotten, that FIFA is," Tsuchiya told reporters.

But the real reason he's pissed (typical politician):
A furious Tsuchiya later added, "Before the World Cup started, I said that I'd like to bring about 10 people to a game, but was told that I wasn't allowed to. They're making a fool of me

You bet they are. :wink:

I wonder what he said before translation, is it anywhere nearas colorful as it sounds here? If it is, he must be quite an interesting politician.
