And a 2031 Women's World Cup has to do with KSA's 2030 WC how?
Air-conditioned stadia in Qatar. Brazil on the other hand...
In most cases, you are either a fringe club player, or just stuck in the reserve squad. 19 GUI players were called up for tomorrow's playoff...
Income taxes and transportation two very distinct categories. Also, I don't recall any WC were public transportation was free for WC fans. If...
Those claims seem to contradict each other though. How do you know which non-negotiable *city contract* clauses exist, if you have not seen any...
Hey what did I miss? Is USA leading the polls for the next WWC vote? Oh wait... oh no, no no no no :eek: :ROFLMAO: Now the real fun starts,...
Countries with a 180+ visa wait time is 28 not 22, and that number is unlikely to decrease by 2026: 5 in AFC, 10 in CAF, 8 in Concacaf, 3 in...
Do you have any sources on those complaints?
A proper discussion won't occur if we start pulling percentages out of thin air. As you already read, several potential 2026 WC tourists have a...

Not sure how a simple "Memorandum of Understanding" with Conmebol will prevent FIFA/UEFA from sanctioning one of its members. Let us remember...
