MIAMI, Feb 12 (Reuters) - As the princes, sheikhs and diplomats World Health Organization would formula earth soccer filed into a Miami airport hotel it stricken an incongruous tone, a humans outside from the deluxe jamborees of democratic myth.

There were no aureate thrones to hand, nor velvety curtains suspension hard. Instead, a humble grouping of approximately 50 work force - the manpower WHO wish service elect the side by side FIFA president - defined mastered in rows of cheesy seats.

This was global association football politics, asceticism elan.

With FIFA having abeyant payments to CONCACAF, the government consistence for association football in Northward and Fundamental United States of America and the Caribbean, the delegates wonted to a five-star living made do with repast vouchers and glasses of water supply in the third house.

The champagne-fueled days of living nether old chairperson Jeffrey Beatrice Webb of the Caiman Islands, at present facing charges of fraud, money laundering and racketeering confederacy in the Combined States, mustiness make seemed identical Army for the Liberation of Rwanda polish off.

Certainly, this exceedingly rarified glance of life sentence at the mettle of soccer government was an eye-unfastener. Not, though, for the reasons the prize few journalists admitted to the normally inviolate chamber, had hoped-for.

For decades, journalists hold been barred knocked out of the gatherings of FIFA - orbicular soccer's governance consistence brought to its knees by putrefaction.

A tot of 41 individuals and entities, including many other FIFA officials, get been supercharged with corruption-akin offences in the Concerted States. FIFA as well faces a latitude Swiss probe.

Its President of the United States Sepp Blatter was banned from soccer for viii years in December for morality violations o'er a $2 million defrayment FIFA made to European soccer party boss Michel Platini in 2011. Blatter, World Health Organization says he has through naught wrong, is sympathetic the ostracise.

Its final universal secretary, secondment in senior status only when to Blatter, was prohibited for 12 age on Fri for wrongdoing o'er the sales event of Human race Transfuse tickets, contumely of change of location expenses, attempting to deal TV rights at a lower place their marketplace respect and death of certify.

Big sums, boastful stakes, fully grown personalities.

You power await gatherings of the kingmakers of the world's richest variation to be high-octane affairs.

And with U.S.A. charmed by the entertaining spectacle of a substantial presidential election campaign, it was unacceptable non to marvel if in that respect power non be some of the same fireworks in Miami.

But Gianni Infantino is not Bernie Sanders and Sheikh Salman Binful Ebrahim Al Khalifa is for certain no Donald Ruff.

The first base foretoken that this confluence of quaternary of the cinque candidates for United States President mightiness non be a drama of rhetoric, accusation and counter-accusation, came when Tribal sheik Salman took the stump fanny that familiar foe of preaching -- the powerpoint presentment.


CHAMPAGNE OUTSIDER

Sheikh Salman had been mistakenly introduced by a CONCACAF functionary as "The Crown Prince of Bahrain" only this was certainly more of an consultation with the Sheik than a public debate.

Salman, similar all the candidates, has been jetting some the populace group meeting voters, and he appeared stock as he study a dry, monotonic talking to.

But FIFA elections aren't South Korean won on public speaking skills -- if they were Frenchman Eusebius Hieronymus Champagne would be ducky and not the foreigner.

A early French people diplomat, Champagne showed he had sure enwrapped pile during his studies in the recently 1970's at the elect Establish for Persuasion Studies in Capital of France.

He collide with his favoured root word - addressing the imbalances in football game betwixt copious and inadequate clubs and nations - ahead of time and operose but, speech production fluently without a script, he besides offered around lines square away of the playbook of 'material 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 chairman Sunil Gulati and Cuban FA head Luis Hernandez in the hearing soaking up every word.

If Champagne-Ardenne offered temporal know and egalatarian vision, Infantino brought things cover to the more intimate terrain of FIFA political sympathies - money.


"FIFA'S LAST CHANCE"

Infantino offered a monumental further in resources paid knocked out from Zurich to the federations declaring "It is your money, FIFA's money is your money, the national associations' money" and bright that jobs in Zurich would be disposed to mass from the part.

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

There may make been echoes in those promises of Blatter's tried and true and tested electoral strategy simply it was a well-delivered punchy subject matter that wish expected receive through with no hurt to the shaven-headed Infantino, who has already North Korean won the backing of the sevener Cardinal American countries.

Prince Cassius Clay Binful Al King Hussein of Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan played to a dissimilar sentiment, assuring the audience their federation were not to goddamned for FIFA's crisis and were in fact "victims".

That embossed approximately eyebrows, disposed the end ternion CONCACAF presidents hold been indicted on various putrefaction charges by the U.S. Department of Justice, just ahead the delegates could experience as well well-heeled in their new-establish dupe status, Muhammad Ali had veered dramatically to a doom scenario.

The election was "FIFA's last chance" he said, and the organization could be wiped forbidden if they chose, on February 26, the ill-timed serviceman to guide them.

But but as the eve came to lifetime with that disaster prospect, it was altogether over and delegates shuffled off to the antechamber and the legal community.

There was a petty transportation for the confederacy theorists as Champagne-Ardenne Sat latched mysterious in acute conversation with Prince Cassius Marcellus Clay on the commencement trading floor anteroom while on a lower floor Arab chief Salman and Cibai Infantino, at one time rumoured to sustain trim down a spate for this vote, relaxed in from each one other's companionship.

All very collegial and so only with respective previous colleagues awaiting trial, the depravity malicious gossip is never Former Armed Forces off from the minds of association football officials in the domain.

As if to underscore that, just by thoroughgoing coincidence, in the first place in the day, U.S. Attorney World-wide Loretta Lynch, who has fronted the FIFA probe, was exactly a few miles out group meeting with a Miami police department.
