They needed to be kicked out before this week.
They’ve been cheating at almost everything on an industrial scale for years.

Rob Harris (@RobHarris) Tweeted: Video asking FIFA President Gianni Infantino if he’ll retain the Order of Friendship medal given to him by Vladimir Putin and if he has any regrets about praising the Russian leader so strongly in recent years, especially when the initial invasion of Ukraine happened in 2014 https://t.co/Uf9aHmTWuq

Probably the hardest thing I do on a regular basis is to try to figure out which of FIFA, UEFA and the IOC is the most blatantly corrupt.

Uefa and Fifa are too late: Russia’s sportswashing has served its purpose | Barney Ronay

We have been expertly played by Vladimir Putin. Now he is raining death down on Ukraine, and sport has served its purpose in him being able to create this horrifying moment

This is such a good piece. It will not be read by those who openly dream and wank at the thought of wishing Abramovic bought Spurs instead. They've gone very, very quiet in the Chav and this thread.

Is it wrong that it wouldn’t entirely surprise me if Poland / Sweden end up forfeiting games because FIFA ‘don’t want sport to divide, but bring together’.

Good on Sweden and Poland for forcing their hands.

FIFA condemns “ the use of force by Russia in its invasion of Ukraine.” Not the actual invasion and occupation.

Amazing ovation............

I think it wa ms a different person from Gazprom and was a mistranslation from the Russian. Still suicide, still Gazprom.

Guido 🇺🇦 - Can you perhaps change the thread title to include FIFA too so we can get all this Football/Russia stuff bunched together in one thread?
