tbh i don't mind russia getting the world cup that much because at least you can physically play football in russia in the summer and, well, they bought it fair and square by modern FIFA standards qatar, though, is just silly

FIFA should use its funding to create a Sealandia-style artificial sovereign venue that can be disassembled and airlifted into different locations to host the world cup.

WhiskeyJuvenile posted:because FIFA don't give a poo poo about women's soccer The Women's U-20 next year was supposed to be held in South Africa or something. When the host backed out with short notice, FIFA approached Sweden and asked them to take over hosting duties for the tournament. But apparently Blatter needed asian votes for his latest reelection because when the formal decision was made, suddenly football giants Papua New Guinea was given hosting duties. Now Papua New Guinea might back out because e: how did i get here this isnt the Ray Parlour R.S. Gumby fucked around with this message at 20:39 on Oct 17, 2015 |

So many world problems could be solved by a functioning one world government that owned a chunk of land like say all of Switzerland or Belgium, sort of like how the USA has Washington D C. Just a permanent venue for world cup and the Olympics. Plus the bureaucracy, group projects like the large Haddon colider, science centers and world universitys, all that stuff.

Free from corruption, and certainly not an opportunity for people like Hillary Clinton to pursue their own selfish interests of power while helping their donors along the way

FIFA has released a list of five approved candidates for the election, notably not including Platini (though they said if he wins his appeal he could go on the list). Prince Ali, some guy from Bahrain, Champagne, Gianni Infantino (who I've never heard of), and a fifth guy. e: the fifth guy is Tokyo Sexwale Badger of Basra fucked around with this message at 19:11 on Nov 12, 2015 |
