English FA boss suggests breakaway World Cup after Fifa re-election of Sepp Blatter

John Delaney wants to know if there will be 33 teams

The re-election of Sepp Blatter as president of Fifa has thrown up a host of questions for the organisation and world football, one is which is simply: what will his opponents do now? The nuclear option would be for those countries to boycott the controverisal upcoming World Cups in Russia and Qatar that are the focus for much of the current discontent, and English Football Association chairman Greg Dyke has indicated that that option is very much under consideration. Uefa, guided by Michel Platini's request that European nations vote for Blatter rival Prince Ali of Jordan, made up the bulk of the 73 votes that went against the Swiss, although there were also many votes from North and South America. And the Telegraph have revealed that Dyke has hinted that a 'rebel World Cup' would come under serious consideration if the current investigations led by the FBI and Swiss authorities continued to uncover evidence of impropriety within Fifa. Dyke said that 'one or two people' are already discussing the prospect of European and South American nations breaking away.
