Cape Verde was a great story. Truly great. But 2 weeks after, football doesn't give a fuck, less so after 1, 2 or 4 years.
If Mauritius, Mozambique, Mali do the same, great, but for 99% of fans, 99% of the time, across the world, nobody cares.
If France, Italy, Germany, England, Spain, Netherlands, Portugal boycott a World Cup, it's automatically invalid. It's just the truth.
Likewise, a club World Cup without any of Europe's top 25 clubs is invalid. Nobody is watching Inter Miami v Boca Juniors except in markets that simply don't generate revenue or global interest.
UEFA should immediately take over global law making ( UEFA replace FIFA 4 votes in a new IFAB with the 4 home nations continuing holding the other 4 votes).
Europe has paid football's bills for 150 years. It does not need to vote for a man in an island of 100,000 to hold the game to random because FIFA are giving him 20 mil.
I'm half English, half Barbadian. One has paid its football dues, the other hasn't, so the other cannot and must not hold the balance of power.
When two thirds of football nations fill their stadiums, support grassroots football, create a pyramid, have women's teams, find kids, then their vote is equal to a European powerhouse.
Not a day before.
Time for UEFA to secede from FIFA
FIFA needs UEFA. UEFA doesn't need FIFA.
@IlvesToomas@ContRiftShow indeed, he was the frontman cashing the money from those opposing the sanctions but which preffered to play the good cop. Now masks are fallen and they cannot hide anymore. France is expanding the project with Rosatom too and plant is built in Germany ...
@ERTurtleDevil e un stat disfunctional si nimeni nu are o solutie corecta pt ca fie nu intelege complexitatea sistemelor fie are constrangeri de la structurile de putere care trebuie sa sifoneze bani la greu. Spitalele sparg bani pe renovari fictive,preturi umflate... Bolnavul is aduce aspirina
@traderhc July has been GREEN historically . so yeah, whatever, there will be some bumps on the road but eventually it will end up green. And if not so what? Just another good opportunity to buy more & cheapper
@redKZMIR Nu cred ca rusii (mai) au bani de sponsorizari. Mai degraba merg oe traditional: le baga cate o panatama in pat mosilor de la Briusel,le fac rost de prafuri,.. d astea. Maga prefera sa stea in umbra si sa lase impresia ca rusii s capul rautatilor. Dar sunt mult mai toxici
@PaulGheorghita7 Africanii termina benzina in min 80 ๐ Nici pe egioteni nu i-a tinut bateria. Iar Messi e too scorer, ca mai da si pe langa aia e, ca doar nu e Tama,Mutu sau alt super star cu care s romanake obisnuiti ๐
@RGIII ha haaa,sore losers. trump will organize another WC next year where opponents will be allowed with only 1 player in the field. and blindfolded. 250 years in reverse - running away from kings and ending up under a pedo oligarch. the irony is brutal. Putin is proud!
@redKZMIR Putin e invidios. Si Kim. ๐ Amerlocii insa nu vad nici o problema aici. 250 de ani de involutie. Au fugit de regi ca sa aleaga un dictator/oligarh dement. Si sunt si mandri de asta
