      Yeah we’d hold a fantastic tournament. Both of us know how to hold world class events alone, together we’d cook up a massive feast.

      But we pulled out, fuck the corruption.

      We can’t host one in NZ mate, we don’t have the infrastructure or transportation. It’ll just be one match here and the rest in Australia.

      Secondly, Australia does not have the infrastructure for a WC.

    Can someone calmly tell me why is everyone angry about this? Explain it to me with reasoning.

    Like many Middle east & Asian countries also hate the west but i don’t see them angry when a WC is hosted there. Is this because you can’t raise a LGBT flag? Or is it because you can’t handle watching football match without getting drunk?

    Reddit still won’t have the capability to boycott though. Everyone here tuned in to watch Messi play in Qatar. RES tagging is a great tool, don’t forget.

    I really hope the ECA rejects another winter World Cup after the issues that are happening now. They won’t, but I still hope they will

    This will be like when I played FM until the year 2050… I didn’t even care to do it anymore because I no longer recognized any players and their achievements seemed minimal compared to the monsters of today and before.

    It will be a very fun World Cup similar to Qatar because of how close all the stadiums will be next to each other. Also having the World Cup around the holidays wasn’t such a bad idea.
