My guessing is blatters met the FBI, they've showed him a piece of paper that puts him in a world of shit, the FBI have asked him to hand over everyone else and resign from FIFA to get a plea deal.

Its a possibility this. I hope not though as if FIFA is going to rid itself of all corruption it needs to prosecute all offenders to draw a line under the reign of terror.
Clearly for his position to change so radically in the course of a few days, something has happened. I suspect somebody within FIFA may have threatened him with a revelation unless he went. That is one of the few things that makes sense. Now an opportunity is here - the next president should be a temporary one, charged solely with cleaning the organisation up and leaving it in a state that it does the job it should be doing. The first thing they have to look at is the world cups. If you were forced to stake your life on it, would you bet Russia and Qatar bribed their way to selection or put in squeaky clean bids. I think Qatar more than anything, proved to the world that something dodgy had happened - on one side a wealthy Arab state - I suppose that is a positive in that they could afford to put on a tournament. But on the other side, the use of slavery, terrible human rights record, no football tradition or history and a climate totally unsuitable for the game. How could they have won the bid? It defies all logic unless dodgy dealings are the explanation!
