Henry Makes A Mockery Of Ireland Again As He Has Last Laugh Over Sleight Of Hand Which Broke A Nations’ Hearts

Sportspeak has concluded that fair play means nothing to FIFA other than a couple of buzzwords for good publicity but mean absolutely nothing in the real world.French cheat Thierry Henry has got away with his blatant act of bad sportsmanship after facing  a FIFA committee today over his scandalous handball against the Republic of Ireland.The Frog striker’s case came before FIFA after it was referred to disciplinary chiefs by the world governing body’s executive committee last month.Henry’s handball in the run-up to William Gallas’ winning goal in the World Cup qualifying play-off for France led to FIFA agreeing to have another peek at video evidence, as well as considering whether to take action against the 32-year-old former Arsenal player. Henry’s defence successfully  argued that FIFA’s disciplinary code does not give the committee the ability to punish such incidents and the case was  dropped . Under current rules, only the illegal use of a hand to prevent a goal being scored is covered in relation to possible sanctions, one could only guess that means that using a hand to score a goal has now become acceptable.
