[edit] Balderdash??

I watched the '98 World Cup and remember the press reportage. This article reads as though it was written by partisans of Sampson and the National Federation who only fired SS following very loud and persistent public pressure. My memory is: Sampson's name was mud for quite a few years after '98. From my seat it looked as though a worrywort megalomaniac destroyed the balance of a national team in the weeks before the world's most important tourney. Will someone with some time and knowledge and sources make this article more balanced?
