Our sport is fucking done

[–] HeadlessHank@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

What an absolute fucking disgrace.

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.

I hope every single fifa member gets indicted the second they step foot in the US for 2026. Disgusting organization

It’s like Khashoggi died for nothing

Yeah, this is a case of them having an answer and deciding the question later, for sure !

[–] tipytopmain@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

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.

[–] Careless_Main3@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Just wait until they change the rules on rotation between conferences so China can host in 2038.

Summer WC with beer please

[–] TheGoldenPineapples@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Fuck's sake, man.

[–] PoroAhri@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Game's gone

[–] eggsbenedict17@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It's incredible that they cooked up the 3 continent strategy just to give 2034 to the Saudis.

Absolutely brazen, not even trying to hide it at this point.

[–] TigerBasket@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (8 children)

Why bother hiding it? Whats gonna happen? They have a total stranglehold on this sport and there is no way out. The old world is dying, the new world struggles to be born. Now is the time of Monsters.

It's a disgrace but I'm not surprised

[–] KAY5435@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Than back to USA for the 2038 World Cup as I can’t see any countries in Oceania hosting the competition.

I still haven’t got over how they disallowed the first goal against Qatar in the past World Cup for no reason at all. I wonder what shenanigans we’ll see at this one..

[–] flingslingping@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why is this being downvoted?

It's actually impressive at this point how fucking shameless these scum cunts are

They are very clearly aware of the huge levels of backlash and also how fucking stupid this decision is for football and non-football related reasons, yet they don't care.

Absolute disgrace

[–] Ryzon9@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Great, another World Cup I won’t go to. I’ve always wanted to go (been to Euros). Guess it’s the next two or bust for me.

[–] NotAnUncle@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Shocked...... I tell you I'm truly and utterly shocked. Who saw that coming? Not me that's for sure.

[–] itailitai@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Game's gone.

[–] FigureItOut50@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

That's assuming football still exists in 2034.

[–] Blyton1@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

What a pleasent surprise!

[–] tanya_97@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I’m surprised they didn’t get 2030 tbh they spent so much money to get Africa votes

[–] FigureItOut50@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Stop trying to make Saudi Arabia happen. It's not going to happen.

[–] jaytcfc@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I’m going to puke.

[–] drckeberger@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

It‘s so fucking wild to me that everyone just accepts that.

Fuck Fifa, and fuck that shit as well.

[–] SparrowJack1@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

F*ck FIFA! The system is rotten…

I can’t see UEFA & the “big 5” leagues being happy about another WC mid season.

[–] NateShaw92@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

2038 will have to be CONCACAF again for the same reasons too.

That's probably how this is getting passed, give the Americans (Let's face it we're not having a world cup in the Carribbean) 2 World cups in quick succession under the table and then the FBI won't act.

Whole thing is corrupt all the way through, it is a cascading domino effect of tit for tat corruption. There won't be a proper World cup bidding process until at LEAST 2042, and even then odds are not good.
