Fifa and Sepp Blatter still have a long way to go, says Hugh Robertson

Fifa Fifa has long way to go, says Robertson The sports minister, Hugh Robertson, has said any move by Fifa to release controversial documents relating to $100m bribery allegations would be a "welcome first sign" of greater transparency from football's world body. But he warned that the credibility of Fifa's president, Sepp Blatter, is "on the line" ahead of its pivotal executive committee meeting on Thursday and that the organisation has a long way to go to root out corruption and reform itself. "I would welcome the release of the documents. Fifa's credibility in general is very much on the line over all this and Sepp Blatter's credibility in particular is on the line," Robertson said. "This would be a welcome first sign of openness and transparency. But there is a lot further to go and what they need is widespread reform of the system."
