Hosting rights require integrity. America’s aggression, human rights failures, and threats to visiting fans show it is unfit to host, by FIFA’s own standard.
It's unlikely to happen, but I really hope the tartan army stays at home. It's a difficult decision, and I totally understand why they wouldn't.
I was in France for the 1998 WC and it is was magnificent. I understand the anticipation, excitement and sheer joy. But this upcoming WC isn't going to be like France or Germany.
This WC is more akin to Russia 2018, and will be used for political gain by the trump regime to further his cruel fascist agenda, similar to Putin.
I hope they stay at home and spend money in local pubs, filled with fellow marvellous tolerant, passionate and generous supporters.
Yeah, there is no chance the Tartan Army will stay at home for the World Cup. I doubt very much ‘whites’ would be targeted by Trump’s goons more the Central/South Americans and Africans.
Since Infantino has come in he has certainly smooched and sucked up to tin pot dictators and authoritarian despots - Russia, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and now USA. It’d be interested to see how his personal wealth and assets has faired since he started became FIFA President.
You couldn't pay me to attend the upcoming world cup.
Giannini Infantino really wants strung up, what with his arse licking of the orange turd, a meaningless sweetener of some tinpot peace(ha!) medal and now double standards when it comes to FIFA rules.
You must have to be a corrupt devious bastard to become FIFA head boy just like Platini, Blatter etc.

A hard hitting commentary on the double standards between the expulsion of Russia and the hosting of the World Cup 2026 in the USA.
Without going into the political depths of the issue, it is plain to see money talks and patronage comes before principle.
Keep up your impeccable journalism Andy, the Power of the Pen is Mighty !
