2026 FIFA World Cup - General Chat

[Drico]

Italy, Argentina, and Portugal are potential semi-final opponents if England beat Mexico and Brazil and if the seedings are borne out by results.

One of the most disgraceful things ive ever watched tbh

Sorry I missed now

 

[NathDogg]

The least I’ve ever been arsed about a World Cup.

Couldn’t be bothered watching that whole nonsense, especially with the glowing orange idiot acting like he’s mahatma ghandi, and infantino hanging out of his hoop.

FIFA are a disgrace, have been for years, cesspit of an organisation.

5th July

Mexico - England at the Azteca. Now to convince the missus to let me go 2 weeks after a Honeymoon

In terms of the really important stuff, the bracket, if England win their group they are on track to play a third-placed team and then possibly the winners of Group A - Mexico? - in the last 16. That match would be in the Azteca.

….maybe it’s the connection with 1970, but the Azteca always sounds magical to me.

I’m sorry but why did we get the YMCA there?

 

[Drico]

This tournament is a joke. FIFA can jam a giant yule log right up their tradesman's entrance.

Ah, so that's why the Village People were there...

I’m sorry but why did we get the YMCA there?

Yup, into Group C with Scotland.

It sounds magical because it is magical.

I didn’t see Ireland, which group will they be in?

 

[MikeH72]

Yup, into Group C with Scotland.

The lack of sense this makes is tickling me to be fair, got to say fair play.

 

[MikeH72]

I didn’t see Ireland, which group will they be in?

They’ve already won it mate so don’t have to compete.

 

[Drico]

I didn’t see Ireland, which group will they be in?
