Wa-hey!!!
The thing I've always thought about FIFA is it's not hard to run. All it really needs to do is decide the location of a World Cup every four years and oversee occasional rule changes. Sepp fucked it up by turning it into a quasi-political force designed primarily to ensure his ongoing reign. Easiest way to nip that in the bud for any future wannabe dictator is to limit the term of presidency and end the policy of 1 country 1 vote.
I just hope whoever succeeds him isn't a 'politician' but a real football person, only interested in the good of the game. It probably won't be but, whoever it is, so long as measures are put in place to limit their power it's a massive step forward.
