If players and national teams collectively walk away from competing in the world cup it would be absolutely incredible imo and would pretty much be the only thing that would ever change anything. I'd also have the utmost respect for any player that walks away knowing that they'll have changed pretty much nothing and sacrificed player at the World Cup for what they believe in. Pretty much everything is probably cheap, including talking about it. We'll get to witness first hand just how full of shit 90% of the people who had a problem with the Newcastle takeover are.

I'd love it if all the teams boycott it, but they won't. It'll just be "it's problematic"-talk but money will win in the end, as always. 

 

Not looking forward to this world cup at all. It just feels rotten to the core.

Or confirmed now that would be Portugal v Italy rather.

 

Would also be Wales at home. Gutted about that bit, felt was v important for Scotland to be at home, whoever we're playing.

Previous history would see that home advantage in playoff / vital games hasn’t served us that well, see Romania in 1993, Russia in 2004 and Ireland in 2018. You can also factor in that we rarely play well in back to back games due to our players lack of fitness. All being said it’s probably the more favourable draw out of the lot ?

South Korea and Iran both definites too?

 

Aye. Then a playoff between Australia and UAE/Lebanon for the final place who then have a playoff against 5th place South American team (probably one of Uruguay, Peru or Chile)

Inter-confederation playoffs set:
 

CONCACAF v. OFC

 

CONMEBOL v. AFC

 

 

Huge for CONCACAF. Was sweating that we’d draw CONMEBOL.

Looks like Canada won’t even need the playoffs.

Italy :lol:

 

After the way they carried on after beating us in the Euro final I for one am absolutely delighted to see those cunts miss out. The World Cup isn't going Rome :lol:

 

Yeah, can't believe they had the audacity to celebrate that, it was only the Euros.
