Gianni infantino abandons plans to sell World Cup to private equity and Kushner/Trump family after massive pushback.

The plan would have increased his pay packet from £4.5m to £47m.

Such people can't protect the game or supporters. Sack the FIFA board.

I thought FIFA boss Gianni Infantino was a force for good in football.
I was wrong.
The shameful Balogun fiasco was bad enough, but his greedy, tawdry attempt to flog off the World Cup is beyond the pale.
He must go.

This is the end.

The proposed plan to sell off a section of FIFA to a group of investors led by Donald Trump’s son-in-law is the end of the credibility of Gianni Infantino’s FIFA.

How can we take such an organization seriously?

Remember the Folarin Balogun red card scandal where Donald Trump phoned up Gianni to get the one game suspension overturned. How does that decision seem to you, now you know there was a proposed ten-billion-dollars deal between the two men?

United & Delta donated $1M → Trump ended flight cancelation compensation rules.

TurboTax parent donated $1M → Trump killed free tax filing.

Toyota donated $1M → Trump canceled CFPB refund order for overcharged borrowers.

It’s a pattern of corruption that costs you money.

On July 29th in 1962, fascist aristocrat Oswald Mosley attempted to march through Manchester but was attacked and was rescued by police. After, he tried to speak but was drowned out quickly by over 5000 anti-fascists. This is why they don’t teach us about working class history .
