A hypothetical question for Ed001 and ed002 if you have time, as it's not exactly Liverpool related.
With everything going on with FIFA at the minute, would it be possible for a federation to break away from FIFA, and go it alone, and if so what would be the consequences?
And if say UEFA broke away, would it affect how the bigger clubs looking to form a breakaway league?
Sorry for the oddball question, but it's been bugging me and this is the only place I know with the knowledge for such questions.

{Ed002's Note - Breaking away is not going to be a practical consideration for UEFA as it does not have the infrastructure or support to do so in the short-to-medium term.}

The potential long-term impact in Europe will be discussed when a number of clubs meet at the end of August. There is a potential that one of probably three of those clubs could look to have an earlier meeting to discuss the way forward. It would not surprise me if they requested a meeting either over the weekend or early next week.}

Thanks for the reply ed002. It worries me what is happening with football at the minute. Be interesting to see what comes about though, something has to change surely.

{Ed002's Note - Things will certainly change, but I would not worry about it impacting the game itself in particular - the issues are not directly football related.}
