Infantino said he was expecting a lot of African votes. Issa Hayatou will be seething if he wins, which alone is an excellent reason for him to win.

Apparently a lot of the Prince Ali votes are expected to go to Infantino, rather than Salman - so that should be that.
It's Infantino!!!
It's like Mourinho all over again... the translator ends up with the biggest gig.
This isn't going to enamour the Sheikhs to democracy much.
Gianni.
Infantino.
It's the sex bit they've been trying to avoid, just this morning I heard variations of sech, sek, even seech. Sexwahley is still a pretty awesome name to hear.Originally Posted by Toby
Oh. Well that's silly.
This can only end up ruining my opinion of Infantino, right?
You had an opinion of Infantino?
I certainly don't think FIFA are going to change very much, just become a bit more careful with their shittery.
Absolutely fuck all will change. He's obviously been elbows deep in shit as much as the rest of them.
They'll just start embezzling sensibly rather than using literal brown envelopes.
X in those South African languages generally denotes some kind of throaty click, so alas the frigid few may be right.
It seems somebody has changed the pronunciation guide on his Wiki page since I last looked, so perhaps it's a matter of profound debate.
It now says "'ch' as in 'loch'" where it once said whatever it says for a hard X.
He's not Xhosa or Zulu though (I'm totally an expert in African linguistics now) so no clicky noises, as far as I can (be bothered to) tell it is actually a 'k' or maybe a 'sh'.
Still, you don't get a guy who's name is spelled Sexwale in the news every day, have a bit of fun with it.
