Did America not realise that the ‘soccer’ World Cup would involve people from all over the world visiting?

Is it the Baseball ‘World Series’ that has confused them?

[Ramon Vega @Ramon_Vega71]

The referee appointed to @FIFAWorldCup by FIFA referees committee was unable to enter the US due to visa issues.

@FIFAcom failed miserably in this regard.

The slogan ‘Football unites’ rang hollow.

Disgrace!

🚨 WORST @FIFAcom PRESIDENT OF ALL TIME: INFANTINO SILENT AS US HUMILIATES AFRICA

Gianni Infantino selected Omar Abdulkadir Artan — Africa's top referee and first Somali at a World Cup — then watched US authorities deny him entry at the border despite diplomatic passport and approved visa. Turned back like trash. No reason. No fight.

Where is your voice, Infantino?

You preach "global football" and "unity" while selling out African officials to US border politics. This isn't leadership — it's cowardice and betrayal of the game.

You are proving every day why you are the worst FIFA president in history. Africa will not forget this disgrace.

Stand up or step down.

What on earth is Michael Nicholson paid £800'000 a year for?

He's not been heard from in months and his name is nowhere near this manager hunt.

@K_h__1888 I’d be happy with MON. I think he’s got enough backbone to only take the job if he’s actually given quality players to work with.

@BBCSportScot Are you serious? She clearly hit the Ball. What is wrong with the scottish media??? 🙄🙄🙄

Whilst we’re on the subject of sabotage…

Before agreeing to return, Rodgers was assured that recruitment had improved since his first tenure.

Remember that first window? £19m spent on 10 players. Nothing had changed. We were still on the hunt for cheap punts.

He wanted centre-backs with pace for the Champions League. Mark Lawwell delivered Maik Nawrocki & Gustaf Lagerbielke - two players who had no pace.

We sold Jota & Abada, but failed to adequately replace them.

Joe Hart announced his retirement in February 2024, yet we had no replacement lined up five months later when Rodgers had to personally contact Kasper Schmeichel and do the recruitment team’s job for them.

On to the second season, where we actually showed some ambitious intent in the summer window. The fact we were without a Head of Football at that time due to the departure of Mark Lawwell may have been coincidental.

We sold Matt O’Riley and then Kyogo in January, but failed to adequately replace them.

Then came the third season, where we were dreadfully ill-prepared for the Champions League, failing to negotiate the qualifiers for the 7th time in 9 attempts.

We sold Kuhn, but failed to adequately replace him (do you see the trend developing here?).

We kept Maeda when his head was already in Wolfsburg.

We sold Idah, messed up the Dolberg deal, then had to go back to the Rodgers Rolodex to bring in Iheanacho.

When Rodgers eventually spoke out about this amateur approach to recruitment, someone at the club briefed against him to the worst tabloid rag imaginable.

You may well have a predetermined view on Brendan Rodgers, but he wasn’t the one sabotaging Celtic. If you believe that, you’ll agree with every word of Desmond’s statement obliterating the man on his departure - a statement that remains a stain on Celtic’s reputation.

The target of our disdain should be fully focused on those in the boardroom who are incapable of progressing our football club, not on managers trying to achieve success to a backdrop of chaos and dysfunction.

[Paul John Dykes @PaulJohnDykes]

@bhoysviews Think he get a rest. It’s just a friendly to start the campaign.
