Is anyone even remotely surprised that they have broken their own rules crawling to the orange fascist?

Quote

Tourists from dozens of countries including the UK could be asked to provide a five-year social media history as a condition of entry to the United States, under a new proposal unveiled by American officials.

As well as the collection of social media information, the new document proposes the gathering of an applicant's telephone numbers and email addresses used over the last five and 10 years respectively, and more information about their family members.

I hope the American matches are played in front of empty stadiums.

That'll show them.

In fairness, $180 might only be 60p by next summer once Trump invades Venezuela.

Apparently FIFA take 10,000 of the tickets for sponsors, media etc and 8% allocation comes from that reduced capacity. SFA then about take 500 tickets leaving rest for fans. 
 

Prices are really making me seriously considering not going.

@OrlandoDon pal, see if I go to the Brazil game, I fancy popping along to see the Kennedy Space Centre while in that part of the world.

Apparently there's no public transport and the tour buses take like two hours. Any chance you could just give me a lift?

Sure! Ambrose hat trick on Sunday and I’ll by your flight and game ticket too!

Sop to the masses. Or not. About 400 cheaper tickets for each match. Hope they end up in the most loyal hands.
