Apologies if breaking any rules or etiquette starting this new thread - but just saw something I didn't know where to post, so thought a general chat thread would do it

Anyway

"Madonna, Shakira and K-pop boy band BTS will co-headline the Super Bowl-style half-time show at this summer's World Cup final."

Speculation is halftime for the final will be 30 minutes.

Just no!

The England manager is complaining that they won't have time to acclimatise to the conditions in Mexico City before they play the co-hosts there.

What does he want to happen? The game to be moved? Mexico to be expelled?

Just sook it up.

Having lived there for 3 years, it will be tough for them and will give Mexico a big advantage. Them’s the breaks though.

Anyway, who wouldn’t want to play at the Azteca stadium?!

Their supporters will be fine, they've all got their heads in the clouds anyway.

FIFA now saying England game against Mexico not moving kick off time. England still moaning. 

USA's Falorin Balogun has had his one match ban suspended for one year by FIFA, meaning he can play in the next game.

US President Donald Trump thanked Fifa for "reversing a great injustice" in a post on Truth Social.

Trump wrote: "Thank you to Fifa for doing what was right, and reversing a great injustice! President DONALD J. TRUMP."

Nothing to see here, no corruption whatsoever.

We all know that Donald is the truth sayer 

Anyone still labouring under the impression that FIFA aren't a bunch of corrupt cheating bastards 

Not that I'm advocating cheating, but couldn't he have had a word with someone to get a penalty or two for Scotland, seeing as he's half-Scottish?

Hope the US get absolutely fucking pumped.

It will just get overturned if they do.

More importantly, do you have the ability to merge the subtopics on this world cup forum now that Scotland are well out? It would really compliment the new forum looks.
