    Until these medieval belief countries modernise, none of them should be allowed to hold a global event.

    The Women’s World Cup is 4 years away and FIFA is giving more attention to World Cups that are a decade ahead…

    Honestly the only real hope was like China tbh since they have a lot of money compared to the other potential bidders. But the sport isn’t big enough there yet and they’ve got other focuses it seems.

    On the bright side though, by 2034 they’ll have ruined the sport to the extent that no one’s gonna watch that anyway.

    Fifa:

    1. Award WC2030 to three continents with some dumb reasoning that everyone hates.
    2. Only accept applications from Oceania and Asia for WC2034 with a tight deadline, knowing only SA will apply
    3. no … needed
    4. Profit

    And nobody can claim the awarding was corrupt as they had no other choice than to give it to SA.

        Why would they do that? Does FIFA pose a danger against US interests? If Americans does that, people all over the world will hate them even more.

      I’m still holding out hope that Japan and S.Korea can get a joint bid together. But who are we kidding, FIFA want that oil money more than anything. If they could scrap the rules and just have the middle east become a permanent host of the competition every time they would.

      A one month deadline to apply for a World Cup, that takes place in 11 years, is fucking absurd.

      They’ve gotten better at it instead just taking a bribe from Germany and trying to influence the vote/rig it or whatever. Now they actually plan it well.

      Fuck Infantino to the moon and back. The man and his pathetic support base are doing everything they can to ruin the greatest sporting tournament in the world. I did not realize I could feel this level of disgust for a football administrator
