Cankles-McJeggings Have you ever imagined where’d you’d be now if it wasn’t for us colonising you?

Him and his countrymen would be about $45 trillion better off.

rhouses STFU, take the money and play football. Otherwise grow a pair and boycott. But spare us the non-stop sanctimony, getting sickeningly hypocritical.

Fair point. Although the Arab world is still a bit medieval in some respects, ultimately it’s up to them to find thier own enlightenment, not for the West to lecture them.

It’s FIFA and UEFA who people should be focusing their anger on. Rotten to the core. If the FA had any balls it would leave UEFA. I bet others would follow.

    rhouses it’s more about them being criminalising homosexuality and keeping slaves in 2022 mate.

    FFS not another Brexit!

      Can we agree that Ally McCoist is easily the most amusing commentator/pundit about?

      What a good goal that was from Asano for Japan’s second.

      Germany utterly lackluster.

      Its a world cup full of surprises. Sule at full back is the equivalent of putting Maguire there.

      How did Costa Rica qualify? deary me, absolutely terrible, no fight, lazy, useless, clueless, pathetic

        Hursty How did Costa Rica qualify? deary me, absolutely terrible, no fight, lazy, useless, clueless, pathetic

        They only had to finish ahead of the mighty Panama, Jamaica, El Salvador and Honduras for the 4th spot in the Concacaf, then defeat the formidable New Zealand in a playoff.

          hugopal They only scored 13 goals in 14 games too. Poo.

          Spain look good though.

          Loopy laughing with his mates ‘well at least we’re not going to get beat as bad as that’ before nervously looking around and sighing.

            Hursty These are the teams Canada qualified against, which is why I’m far less optimistic than others. I hope we’re respectable against Belgium, but I have very low expectations.

            You ready Loopster? !!!!!!!
            Can get 5/1 on Betfair 👍

            rhouses Anyone finding it a bit rich having a bunch of western countries who have built their wealth on the back of centuries of war, looting, genocide, slavery, and colonization having a go at the Middle East? The noisiest being the sanctimonious whites who choose to ignore their countries’ dubious history. Laughable behaviour.

            STFU, take the money and play football. Otherwise grow a pair and boycott. But spare us the non-stop sanctimony, getting sickeningly hypocritical.

            Instinctively, yes, I am definitely finding it a bit rich hearing barely-sentient mouth-breathing over-privileged vip-badge-wearing virtue-signalling total fucking idiots preaching whatever kinds of pseudo-ethical woke nonsense happens to align with their current arbitrary self-interested value system, particularly in light of much of their current fortunes having been built on the backs of slaves and oppressed minorities in times gone by.

            On the other hand, can one ever condone “the country that banned Love?” I think not ❤️ 🌈 👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨

            Can Canada do any worse than Costa Rica…?
