Scotland, being the first European nation to win a game at this World Cup on day 4, isn't a statistic I thought I would be saying at this tournament. Football is crazy.
England v Croatia not sold out. Secondary ticket sites offering tickets from $867 (£648) to $9,225 (£6,900) for ticket and meal package with access to VIP lounge. Still some hospitality tickets ranging from $2,430 to $3,150 on the Fifa website. #ENG
An article about how pampered and overpaid players and managers used to be, but complaining it wasn't as much as it is now? So out of touch and odd. Cry me a river. Not sure about this one, Henry, or who this is for?
When he was sacked, Sir Alf Ramsey was given a pay-off of £8,000 and an annual pension of £1,200. He lived modestly. Football has not always treated its greats properly. Column on then and now. 2/2 #ENG#FIFAWorldCup

In 2023, Indonesia were stripped of the under-20 World Cup for refusing to allow the Israeli team entry.
Fifa's justification then was the vague "due to the current circumstances".
Quite a contrast to the hardline "FIFA is not involved in host immigration processes" now.
Thomas Tuchel I am sold🏴🏴🏴

Every other nation can bookmark this tweet because it’s coming home!🏴🏴🏴
So, not only are the World Cup games at daft times through the night, neither the BBC nor ITV are bothering with a daily highlights show either? Nice one
Blows my mind that the US is about to host its second World Cup and a real hotbed of football, the UK, hasn’t been trusted with one since 1966
Joke really, and a corrupt one at that
