FIFA really gave Canada and Mexico the title of “co-hosts” but not the full benefit of being hosts.
How does a country help host a World Cup, qualify for the knockout stage, and then get shipped away from home?
Canada and Mexico should be playing as many home games as possible. That’s the whole point of hosting.
FIFA didn’t just miss the mark here, they ripped off the fans!
People were talking about don't start Bellingham before the tournament 🤣
By a country mile he's our best player, dragging the rest of them over the line here.
@markbeattie32 Was just a joke mate coz were allowed to get ahead of ourselves and have a laugh. We said the same in 2021 ironically when we went up (didn't win the league). Just an off-season buzz which we haven't had for yearsss 😂👍🏾
🔵 Hartlepool Utd say the deal for Will Harris has the correct approval with written evidence & support from the necessary bodies.
Halifax statement was expected, but #Pools are fully convinced of their stance.
✍️ Will Harris IS a Pools player - CONFIRMED ✅

You can chat to me about Turkiye and Czechia all you want…
But Uruguay failing to get out of a group containing Saudi Arabia and Cape Verde in a World Cup where 8/12 3rd-place teams progress is comfortable the biggest underachievement of the tournament.
Hideous campaign.
So Stokes wraps up a test win inside 3 days, breaks team protocol, parties all night in the bar, gets into a fight, gets dropped for 1 test, comes back & breaks the opening partnership of 300, bowls 20+ overs, takes 4 wkts with best eco. Sums up his entire career in 5 lines.
Aside from the absolute dolly, I get he can’t help his personality but his whole demanour behind the stumps is all wrong. You need your test match keeper to have something about them and lift the team rather than to not look like they don’t wanna be there half the time.
The world cup schedule needed to keep Canada (and Mexico) in their host nations as long as possible man. They finished 2nd, how has the schedule not said 2nd in their group plays in Canada. Fair enough if they finished 3rd. Shocker really. Id be well pissed off
