Ticket rackets and secondhand cars: How Chet got rich
When you've read the story , check out the disgusting history of Greene, FIFA money and World Cup tickets
Here's Greene and his protector, Jack Warner.
Colin Klass from Guyana is another official who is backing Greene and pushing for Antigua to be thrown out of the world game. Greene and Klass enjoyed a FIFA-paid holiday at the 2002 World Cup and were pictured setting up a secondhand car business with Tokyo businessmen.
I wrote about Greene's rackets in the Daily Mail in September 2003. But he remains a favourite of Warner and Blatter.
Here's a warm letter from Blatter to Greene who is trying to get his hands on FIFA money. Greene succeeded and nobody knows where all his country's US$1 million FIFA grant went. Attached - a bonus letter from another businessman keen to make money out of FIFA.
Greene ordered nearly 3,000 tickets - including 147 for the final - for the 1998 World Cup. Here's his covering letter and three pages of orders for specific matches.
Then there's a couple of letters from an English agency he dealt with and a "****************-off" letter from UEFA. Greene had tried to use his position as an Antiguan official to extort more tickets.
Greene was at it again running a racket to get tickets for Euro 2000. He worked with a fellow Antiguan businessman living in England. And two more UEFA letters.
The honest officials in Antigua set up an independent inquiry into what Greene did with US$1 million of FIFA's grant to the island. They produced a 50-page report. It reveals how money was siphoned off into private accounts - and much more.
For nearly four years Greene has been trying to force the Antigua and Barbuda FA to pay him expenses which he can't produce receipts for. Finally Jack Warner appointed one of his loyal supporters, Ronald Jones of the Barbados association, to make inquiries. Astonishingly, Mr Jones sees it Chet Greenes way. Read his report that says Greene should get the money.
And here's Warner's ultimatum from December 2007. Pay the "pathological liar" - or be thrown out of football. Fans may remember Merv Richards' international football career, and the cricket career of his brother Sir Viv Richards.
