Last updated : 23 October 2008 By Kevin Markey
In the current financial climate and with more clubs falling into administration, Blatter has hailed the Leeds model as the way forward.

"Unless you are one of the ultra-rich clubs, this, surely, is the way forward," he said.

"Leeds, a club I greatly respect, have to be applauded for its efforts in this regard," he added.
