The English FA can point to its exposure of attempts to solicit bribes by named members of FIFA, though only after a bid to stage the World Cup failed. For whatever reason, the Welsh FA remained loyal to Blatter and his cronies. When the final indictments are brought by the FBI in the United States, the WFA will need to explain its motives.
Many other domestic jurisdictions will have to examine themselves, given that Andrew Jennings exposed corruption in FIFA as long ago as 2002.
Update: the Welsh FA has withdrawn support from Blatter: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32910117
