It's a whopper And apparently he knows how it feels to be discriminated because he used to be bullied for having red hair. And his family were immigrant workers in Switzerland coming from Italy. I kid you not. I can't believe the brass neck of Infantino to come out with this drivel. He's defending the indefensible, by painting the likes of us as being worse than the "hosts" they selected. Clearly he will do anything for money, what a breath of fresh air, he has proved to be after Blatter! FIFA shouldn't let this stand and surely someone has to oppose his re-election, but of course they won't as the majority of those voting are feeding from the same dirty trough. They know football fans won't like it, but they don't care a jot about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already decided that no one will run against him in the election next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyM3000 Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Actions speak louder than words. Not sure how I feel about these lot preaching about what's morally right and wrong while also sitting in Qatar and pocketing the profits from the event. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I was just interested in seeing what BBC had to say about it. I don't read papers or watch the news.

Not sure how Shearer is talking against Qatar, when his team has just had owners which have the same issues. That don't matter though, the football great and they are now winning. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can already visualise the go fund me page's over the coming weeks, "Bring them home" little Johnny looking at a 5 stretch for pissing up a palm tree while little Billy is looking at 5 to 10 in the pen for windmilling his cock in McDonald's.

sne Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Italian ref for this game, was halt expecting them to go for someone from Mauritius or Gabon. Not saying European refs can't be bought or crap but he feels like a good choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
