This is all bullshit, It's only the English calling for him to go, this sounds like a witch hunt as payback for the world cup hosting fiasco.
Not sure, there's definitely resentment for the way FIFA handle themselves in the UK, and why shouldn't there be? They're an appalling organisation.
But racism was a hot topic before Blatter's comments, and he was responding directly to the Suarez/Terry cases so it's no surprise that the local media have picked up on it as quickly as they have done doesn't necessarily mean it's payback for the failed WC bid.
Of course, nothing's going to come of it but that's a reflection of how horribly mismanaged FIFA are more than anything.
