2022 World Cup Discussion

[buckshot]

Let's just have all of City's players eliminated in the group stage. I'm for a Brazil (Ederson is a backup so he's fine), Mexico, France and Croatia semifinals.

Can we close the thread due to human right's abuses?

England captain Harry Kane will wear OneLove armband at Qatar World Cup even if FIFA prohibits it

The FA announced intention to wear armband in September, as part of an anti-discrimination initiative, and in support of the LGBTQ+ community; captains from nine European countries planning on taking part; FIFA yet to sanction use, though permission has been requested

Have to say, I have absolutely zero interest in this World Cup. An absolutely ridiculous and most likely corrupt decision to hold it there and even worse in the middle of the football season.
I wish no City players were involved.

Dont remember any of this going on when big tournaments are held in the USA. Their human rights is just as bad. From invading other countries to having the right to carry guns and shot each other. For police brutality against non white Americans.

Why isnt football taking a stand against America ?

Taking the knee came from America

The silence is deafening yet we welcome American owners into the premier league. It's all abit two faced for me

My view as well. The reasons I love most WCs is that they are a summer time thing. The season is over, you forget your club for a wile and in a drought of football you will happily watch random countries play. I have no interest in watching football in a desert mid season.

Absolutely loved the World Cup up to and including France 1998...Granted it was at a time when it allowed me to watch football other than the painful experience of watching City back then,but in 1998 I lived in the pub during the World Cup and had a great time during it.
In 2002 they started arseing around with mid morning kick offs (and yes I understand that Japan and Korea deserved to host it) and I lost the appetite. No games in the pubs they were all over by teatime. I never got it back after that timed with the detestable overrated England teams of the "Golden Generation" and I fell out of love with international football for good. And yes this is now made easy by spending all my footie energy supporting a City team which is fairly good.
All I am interested in is City players not getting injured.

yet we welcome American owners into the premier league.

Bournemouth now selling to the Yanks and Everton courting Yank interest too.

Stick a fork in the EPL, its done.

Have given this thought and have decided to blank it - bought by corruption - enabled by virtual slave labour - fucking all leagues over just to fit it in. Whoever wins it and I don't care who there should always be an asterisk against it in the record books
