European Clubs not Happy with FIFA

Europe's top clubs warned FIFA on Tuesday they are running out of patience with how it runs soccer.

Leaders of the European Club Association demanded a greater voice in decision-making from the governing body.

"I wouldn't say we are at war because the clubs are very patient, but we have a limit," Barcelona president Sandro Rosell said after a meeting of the 197-member group. "What we are asking is rational, logical and fair."

The clubs criticized FIFA for managing the game without proper consultation. They cited confusion over a possible winter switch for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
