Vladimir Putin Is Big In Fifa, Big In Sports And Huge In His Socks: Photos
FIFA president Sepp Blatter says England are “bad losers” at not getting to host the World Cup. He then adds, with a nod to the Noble prize he seems to crave:
“I really sense in some reaction a bit of arrogance of the western world of Christian background… the next regions we need to conquer would be China and India.”
But not the Christian bits.
Anyhow, back to Putin. He loves sports. He plays lots of them. Would David Cameron dare to behave like Putin? Whereas Russian Prime Minister Putin shoots and fights, Cameron jogs.
Here are the photos of Putin the lion. But if you flick through them quickly, add the power soundtrack of Bonnie Tyler’s I Need a Hero, paste in a backing group doing the Yes, and things may look different for little Vlad, king of the biggest country on earth. As we do mean big. Big. BIG! Yes, Vlad, it’s huge. Really…
