@wasteeandglory@wojakotto Yes Americans are tired of subsidizing other countries that don’t reciprocate already previously made agreements. If you make an agreement with someone, and they don’t oblige, you just gonna do nothing?
FIFA President Gianni Infantino:
“I have seen the public comments regarding the decision of the independent FIFA Disciplinary Committee related to the suspension of Folarin Balogun, and I would like to reiterate a fundamental principle of FIFA’s governance.
“FIFA’s judicial bodies are independent. They operate autonomously, apply the FIFA Disciplinary Code, and decide cases based on the applicable regulations and the specific facts before them. Their independence is essential to the credibility and integrity of football, and this must always be respected.
“Yes, I regularly discuss matters related to the FIFA World Cup with the President of the United States, and on this matter, I did receive a call from President Donald Trump, just as I receive calls from heads of state, government officials, football stakeholders and business executives from around the world on many different issues. During our conversation, I explained that there was an ongoing legal process involving FIFA’s independent judicial bodies and that the case would be decided in due course by the competent bodies. That is how FIFA’s system works, and it is a principle that I will always uphold.
“I read the decisions of the FIFA Disciplinary Committee when they are issued. Sometimes I am surprised by them. Sometimes I agree with them, and sometimes I disagree.
“What I always do, however, is respect those decisions and the autonomy of the bodies that make them. Whether we personally like a decision or not is irrelevant. Respect for independent institutions and the rule of law is what protects the integrity of our competitions and the credibility of FIFA at all times.”
@shuubydoo@FearedBuck They would have to form a company, and have the customer pay the company for its services and not the individual. The company if it’s selling flights then must be certified and go through rigorous inspection to ensure it’s safe for them to charge and fly people
@MarsScumbags I like Caleb but he is uniformed on this particular topic. But I do think it’s not malicious, but not understanding how it actually works.
🚨Statement on the sacking of Liam Rosenior🚨
We acknowledge this afternoon’s breaking news regarding the sacking of Liam Rosenior.
While the timing may come as a surprise, the outcome itself was inevitable. Liam was not equipped to lead a club of Chelsea’s stature, and his appointment in the first place was a clear reflection of an ownership group that continues to treat Chelsea as a sporting experiment rather than the elite institution it has been for decades.
From the outset, it was clear to fans, media, pundits, and even players that Liam was placed into a role at the wrong stage of his development. At a time when the squad was crying out for an experienced, authoritative leader, the club instead appointed someone still learning his trade, simply because he fit their internal model.
This is the consequence of an arrogant and misguided structure.
We want to thank Liam Rosenior for stepping into an impossible situation. He took on a role under an ownership that has created an unstable and damaging environment, one that had already driven out his predecessor under extraordinary circumstances. His intentions were never in question.
However, intentions are not enough at a club like Chelsea.
As a fanbase, we demand a manager that reflects the stature, ambition, and expectations of Chelsea Football Club. We reject the idea that the role of a head coach can be reduced to data points. Leadership, experience, and the ability to command respect remain fundamental to success at the highest level.
Today’s decision is yet another damming indictment of an ownership and sporting structure that is not fit for purpose. It reinforces what many already know, that those currently in charge are not the right custodians of this football club.
The club has spoken of “self reflection” in its statement. We believe that process must start at the very top. Perhaps the club has come to the conclusion there is a statistical relationship between a manager and results.
Behdad Eghbali must be held accountable for the environment that has been created. Paul Winstanley, Laurence Stewart, and Joe Shields must also take responsibility for a series of appointments and decisions that have consistently fallen well short of the standards we demand.
Any new appointment must go beyond data and fitting a rigid model. It must be about restoring a connection between the squad and the fans. That same principle must apply across the coaching staff and those in decision making positions at the club. Without that connection, there can be no identity, and without identity, there can be no success.
We will continue to hold the club to account and will be announcing further action this season directed at those responsible for the continued decline of Chelsea Football Club.

@jd105455751314@CFC_dennoh You answered your own question in your response. That’s the problem, his profile had no reason being number 9 at Chelsea. And his performances have reinforced that belief. If you think online fans aren’t going to eat that up you were born yesterday
3 first team staff members lost their jobs due to the financial losses… yet in the same week we find out pay rises were given to those who orchestrated those losses. Forget the results on the pitch, the way these people run ‘business’ is an absolute disgrace.
@jd105455751314@CFC_dennoh I get your point and it’s a fair one. People are fixated though because he’s potentially the worst number 9 in the history of Chelsea
