2026 FIFA World Cup

It's great that this gong is still about football and the fans. Although the 2030 beanfeast is in Morocco, Spain and Portugal they're going to play 1 match in Uruguay to 'celebrate' and remember it will be 100 years since the first one was held there with there also being 1 additional match in Argentina and another in Paraguay because Argentina and Paraguay are nearly in Uruguay anyway and we need to remember that.

It’s disgusting what they’ve done there. By hosting the tournament across 3 federations (South America, Europe, Africa) it meant that the 2034 World Cup could only go to Asia or Oceania. Obviously no one bothered going up against Saudi Arabia as it would have been a waste of money and time.

So they’ve come up with the most convoluted World Cup ever just to gift Saudi Arabia the tournament in 2034. Well, I say gift, I’m sure FIFA (and Infantino) will have made a disgusting amount of money from it.

48 teams is a joke.
Money,money money is all it is about.
24 is the sweet spot 1982, 1986 and 1990 prove this.
All having 48 teams does is guarantee plenty of uncompetitive group matches like England Panama in 2018

48 is too many but I’m happy to see more from Africa qualify. They have so much parity and are always competitive enough. Concacaf getting what they’re getting on top of the three hosts will be bad though. We could realistically see Suriname play France now.
 
Infantino is unspeakable. But I have little sympathy for the fans moaning about ticket prices. The damn thing is in the USA, which is basically Berlin 1936 right about now. Anyone going there is asking for trouble. The price of tickets is the least of our problems. And FIFA have long been captured by shills like Infantino who buys African votes to keep power. His entire powerbase is anti human rights. None of this should be remotely surprising to anyone. The time to protest was years ago...

When Qatar got the damn thing the game was up for fans wanting to travel to these places and enjoy the jamboree without being gouged, jailed, or having their human rights abused. As mentioned above, 2030 is a contrived farce that didn't even attempt to hide in plain sight its real intentions to rig 2034 for the headchoppers. Infantino is actually living in the Gulf now, a captured useful idiot.

The next World Cup is definitely one to stay home for.
 

Hope this $h!t tournament fails miserably going forward, in the USA and elsewhere, and all the FIFA corrupt officials get shot out of cannons to join Jeff Bezos on his idiotic planned space colony never to bother us again. Might as well be back to 1934 with more sports-washing.

It's not just the US hosting it though. I have entered the ballot for the "venue tickets", with Vancouver and Toronto as my options.

Because I have no interest in going to usa
