Europe should weigh World Cup boycott to oust Fifa's Blatter: UK
Swiss authorities deny they will soon question soccer's governing body chief
London
BRITAIN said Europe should consider boycotting future World Cups if Sepp Blatter doesn't quit as head of soccer's governing body over a corruption scandal, while Swiss authorities denied they would soon question the newly re-elected Fifa president.
The Swiss-born Fifa chief complained on Sunday he had been shown "zero respect" in recent days, revealing how he had rejected advice from one of his main critics, the head of the European governing body, to quit at last week's Fifa congress.
