This world cup is really going to have to do something special to beat this moment.
Alexi Lalas calls James Cordon a fucking wanker on television.
And it's live.......
A 72 year old man was savaged stabbed to death in his home in Dungannon last year.
There was no rampaging gangs "protecting their communities".
Guess why?
Because the victim was polish and the murderer was a "local" man.
These aren't concerned citizens they're racists.
@MiguelDelaney Even though I have, as a fanatic, been eagerly awaiting the WC like a child going to bed on Christmas Eve, Ive come to the conclusion it would be best for football if the tournament was a financial disaster and bankrupted FIFA. Nothing other than €£$ losses resonates with them
No country should be allowed to host the World Cup while imposing discriminatory rules on qualified and participating teams.
This ought to be a very basic requirement.
@MiguelDelaney No matter what he did or didnt do in qualifying, he decided that his personal objections to the preparation for the World Cup were more important than putting them aside for the good of the team & country. Not many would have done that. And it was, and still is sad for everyone

A la derecha, un niño palestino hambriento en Gaza, intentando pescar en un trozo de madera, baleado esta mañana por "Israel".
Capitalismo, solo un sociópata puede defender este sistema.
Quand on se souvient des appels au boycott de la Coupe du Monde au Qatar, on se demande où sont passés tous les moralistes alors que les Etats-Unis bafouent toutes les règles de la FIFA!
Ils s’en prennent aux joueurs, aux staffs, aux journalistes, aux supporters! Et Infantino qui en avait plein la bouche au moment de remettre un scandaleux prix de la paix à Trump, il est très très silencieux devant de telles exactions ! #CDM2026 #FIFAWORLDCUP
Imagine Qatar in 2022 held an American or English player for seven hours at the airport.
The tournament would be immediately cancelled and taken to a different country.
This competition is going to be the worst ever. Ever.
Iraqi striker Ayman Hussein flies 12 hours to the United States, lands in Chicago, and is then detained for 7 hours by authorities for questioning.
Not a single news outlet sharing this btw
Everyday I read something that makes me less excited for this World Cup. Shame on FIFA for picking such cruel and greedy hosts.
@MegaSaidIt And let’s remember political references are a violation of FIFA rules and regulations. Other federations would be sanctioned or even suspended for this.
