webfact Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Ex-Thai FA boss banned for five years by Fifa By The Nation Worawi Makudi BANGKOK: -- Disgraced former Football Association of Thailand president Worawi Makudi received a five-year ban with immediate effect from all football-related activities after the Fifa ethics committee found him guilty of misconduct on Tuesday. Fifa launched the formal investigative proceedings against the 64-year-old Worawi in July last year based on reports that the Thai, who was the head of the FAT from 2007 until he was suspended temporarily in October pending the investigation, had been convicted of forgery by the Southern Bangkok Criminal Court.

Brer Fox Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 This man has brought international shame to Thailand. The PM should finger him personally and apply a little bit of military political justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laughing Gravy Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 There were posters on here who were screaming about his innocence and that he would never do such a thing when the story broke. Do we get an apology? Finally some justice caught up with him. Anyone who knows anything about football here knows that this was long overdue.

If I remember correctly he and another official were given suspended prison sentences for forgery offences connected with his re-election to the top job. He must be wondering what he did wrong and why doesn't Fifa understand Thainess ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
