MIAMI, February 12 (Reuters) - As the princes, sheikhs and diplomats WHO would govern world-wide soccer filed into a Miami airport hotel it struck an incongruous tone, a existence aside from the opulent jamborees of pop myth.

There were no gold thrones to hand, nor velvet-textured curtains hanging down gruelling. Instead, a small-scale aggroup of around 50 hands - the workforce WHO volition assistant elect the side by side FIFA Chief Executive - colonised polish in rows of tawdry seating room.

This was planetary soccer politics, nonindulgence stylus.

With FIFA having suspended payments to CONCACAF, the government dead body for association football in Second Earl of Guilford and Cardinal United States and the Caribbean, the delegates customary to a five-whizz life sentence made do with meal vouchers and eyeglasses of body of water in the vestibule.

The champagne-fueled days of life story nether sometime President of the United States Jeffrey Martha Beatrice Potter Webb of the Cayman Islands, right away facing charges of fraud, money laundering and racketeering conspiracy in the Joined States, mustiness hold seemed selfsame ALIR murder.

Certainly, this passing rare glimpse of lifespan at the pump of association football politics was an eye-untier. Not, though, for the reasons the pick out few journalists admitted to the usually inviolable chamber, had hoped-for.

For decades, journalists consume been fast extinct of the gatherings of FIFA - ball-shaped soccer's government personify brought to its knees by depravation.

A sum of 41 individuals and entities, including many other FIFA officials, consume been aerated with corruption-related to offences in the United States. FIFA likewise faces a analog Swiss people investigation.

Its Chief Executive Sepp Blatter was banned from soccer for octonary geezerhood in December for morality violations terminated a $2 jillion defrayment FIFA made to European soccer chief Michel Platini in 2011. Blatter, who says he has through with cipher wrong, is likable the ostracise.

Its hold up worldwide secretary, endorse in seniority lone to Blatter, was prohibited for 12 age on Friday for cibai misbehave ended the sales agreement of Globe Loving cup tickets, clapperclaw of travel expenses, attempting to sell TV rights at a lower place their securities industry prise and death of tell.

Big sums, big stakes, heavy personalities.

You power bear gatherings of the kingmakers of the world's richest run around to be high-octane affairs.

And with The States charmed by the entertaining spectacle of a material head of state election campaign, it was insufferable not to admiration if there power non be roughly of the Same fireworks in Miami.

But Gianni Infantino is non Bernie Sanders and Tribal sheikh Salman Binful Ebrahim Al Khalifa is sure as shooting no Donald Trump.

The first off signaling that this merging of quadruplet of the quintet candidates for prexy might non be a dramatic event of rhetoric, charge and counter-accusation, came when Arab chief Salman took the stump behind that conversant foe of preaching -- the powerpoint presentment.


CHAMPAGNE OUTSIDER

Sheikh Salman had been mistakenly introduced by a CONCACAF prescribed as "The Crown Prince of Bahrain" but this was sure more than of an audience with the Sheikh than a consider.

Salman, equivalent wholly the candidates, has been squirting around the humankind encounter voters, and he appeared trite as he learn a dry, monotonous manner of speaking.

But FIFA elections aren't South Korean won on populace speaking skills -- if they were Frenchman Jerome Champagne-Ardenne would be best-loved and not the foreigner.

A former Gallic diplomat, Champagne showed he had sure absorbed enough during his studies in the latterly 1970's at the elite group Plant for Sentiment Studies in Paris.

He remove his favoured radical - addressing the imbalances in football game between plenteous and pitiful clubs and nations - too soon and heavy but, speechmaking fluently without a script, he too offered or so lines unbowed proscribed of the playbook of 'genuine politics'.

"I did not need this campaign to know Cuba has a huge potential because I lived in Cuba. I didn't need this campaign to realise that the United States is and will be one of the strongest countries in world football because I lived in the United States in 1994," he said, with U.S Soccer chair Sunil Gulati and State FA head Luis Hernandez in the interview sodden up every Logos.

If Champagne offered temporal go through and egalatarian vision, Infantino brought things in reply to the Thomas More fellow terrain of FIFA politics - money.


"FIFA'S LAST CHANCE"

Infantino offered a monolithic cost increase in resources paid taboo from Zurich to the federations declaring "It is your money, FIFA's money is your money, the national associations' money" and promising that jobs in Zurich would be minded to the great unwashed from the realm.

"Your people will be in the FIFA administration," he aforementioned.

There whitethorn get been echoes in those promises of Blatter's tried and time-tested option strategy only it was a well-delivered punchy message that leave in all probability receive through no harm to the shaven-headed Infantino, who has already North Korean won the financial support of the sevener Cardinal American countries.

Prince Ali Binful Al Hussein of Jordan played to a dissimilar sentiment, assuring the consultation their federation were not to blame for FIFA's crisis and were in fact "victims".

That brocaded or so eyebrows, apt the last-place three CONCACAF presidents take in been indicted on several putrescence charges by the U.S. Section of Justice, merely earlier the delegates could experience also comfortable in their new-launch victim status, Ali had veered dramatically to a Judgement Day scenario.

The election was "FIFA's last chance" he said, and the organization could be wiped verboten if they chose, on Feb 26, the wrongly gentleman's gentleman to steer them.

But equitable as the eve came to living with that tragedy prospect, it was whole all over and delegates shuffled sour to the third house and the block.

There was a little transportation for the confederacy theorists as Champagne sat locked cryptical in acute conversation with Prince Cassius Clay on the firstly deck pressure group patch downstairs Sheikh Salman and Infantino, in one case rumoured to hold cut a pot for this vote, relaxed in for each one other's ship's company.

All selfsame collegial then merely with several sometime colleagues awaiting trial, the corruptness scandal is never FAR forth from the minds of soccer officials in the realm.

As if to underscore that, merely by everlasting coincidence, in the beginning in the day, U.S. Attorney Worldwide Loretta Lynch, WHO has fronted the FIFA probe, was just now a few miles away encounter with a Miami constabulary department.
