Sepp Blatter has admitted it was "a mistake" to award the 2022 World Cup to Qatar because of the extreme heat players will face in the Gulf state.

Speaking to Swiss channel RTS, the Fifapresident said: "Of course, it was a mistake. You know, one makes a lot of mistakes in life.

"The technical report indicated clearly that it was too hot in summer, but despite that the executive committee decided with quite a big majority that the tournament would be in Qatar."

Blatter insisted however that Qatar had not "bought" the World Cup – the bid did spend large amounts of money on sponsorship and development programmes.

He added: "No, I have never said it was bought, but that it was due to political considerations. We know full well that big French and German companies work in Qatar but they don't just work for the World Cup. The World Cup is only a small part of what is going on in Qatar."

Asked about his future at the helm of Fifa, Blatter again indicated he would stand for a fifth term in next year's election. "At the moment I say I want to finish my mandate well. Of course I am willing to continue," he said.

A decision on whether the tournament will be moved from summer to the winter in eight years' time has been postponed by Fifa until after next month's World Cup finals in Brazil.

Fifa later released a statement that attempted to clarify Blatter's comments.

"The comment by the Fifa president concerning the organisation of the 2022 Fifa World Cup in Qatar to Swiss TV station RTS is in line with previous comments on this matter," it read.

"As explained in his answer to the journalist, the president reiterated that the decision to organise the World Cup in summer was an 'error' based on the technical assessment report of the bid, which had highlighted the extremely hot temperatures in summer in Qatar. At no stage did he question Qatar as hosts of the 2022 Fifa World Cup."

Blatter is reaching Wumger levels here

(Trollseph Blatter?? Oh fukk off, we have a poster named @Gandolpiffini and let Van Gawd and let Swagchester slide.)

A technical report to indicate that it's too hot to play football in the summer in the gulf states. You couldn't make it up

No mention of the scores of dead migrant workers either.

^^ heres a post from reddit (not sure how true it is)

In case people need to be reminded, Blatter was always against the Qatar World Cup bid and every time he opens his mouth about it it is to indirectly trash it. Qatar was basically a power play by Platini and his faction in the FIFA ExCo to get Qatar the cup in exchange for massive investments in European club football, as well as of course payoffs directly to the ExCo members. It was a slap in the face that Qatar got the bid over the desire of Blatter, similar to when Germany won the bid in 2006 over his favored South Africa. Last time Blatter basically got the FIFA Congress to pass a rotation system that would essentially shove the South African WC down the ExCo's throat. (Remember, the ExCo is a small 25 man committee, whereas the Congress is a 200+ member voting body.)

Now he's in a political battle versus Platini for control of FIFA with elections coming up. These comments are all meant to undermine Platini and his bid for FIFA presidency. Let's stop pretending Blatter is some all powerful dictator of FIFA. He's more like the marginally most powerful oligarch within an oligarchy.
