Hovagod Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Pod on the Tyne has four thirty minutes interviews recorded with Bobby Robson as he worked on his final autobiography. He’s presumably very ill at the time but as enthusiastic and as bubbly as ever. Definitely worth a listen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 I hope he's going to be alright. I hope a bunch more feel brave enough to follow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 I mean I can almost sort of understand the flat out immediate abuse homophobes, but it's the "Why should I care or need to know about his sexuality, very strange" replies it gets that bother me most. You're the one who has gone out of your way to comment on it... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Those people are just homophobes that feel ashamed about it so try to come at it from another angle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Or just completely living in their own world where they think that they represent everyone. 'Well I don't care, so no one cares' sort of thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 In a way they're right, in that it should be a non-even of a story. Unfortunately we live in a world where footballers (and obviously non-footballers) will receive dogs abuse due to their sexuality, so it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I blew a disc out a few years ago and just not being able to do the things in the gym I use to be able to do had such a heavy impact on my mental health.

Smal Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Yesterday they were congratulating Jakub Jankto for coming out, and the very next day they're announcing giving Saudi Arabia competitions to host . What a rank organisation they are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Do the hosts get to put forward a team to participate? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 USA, Mexico, and Canada will all qualify automatically for the next World Cup as they are all joint hosts. 1 more team from CONCACAF will join them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One for the champions of each confederation plus the domestic champions from the hosts who play off against the Oceania champions (usually Auckland) in the first game.

I think they already confirmed CONCACAF will get more teams in 2026. 6 in total I believe. 3 auto 3 via qualifiers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Ayeee. “The FIFA Council confirmed that, in line with the long standing tradition of having all hosts competing at the FIFA World Cup, as well as sporting and operational considerations, the hosts of the FIFA World Cup 2026, namely Canada, Mexico and the USA, will qualify automatically for the final round of the competition, with their slots therefore being deducted from the overall allocation of six assigned to CONCACAF,” it said. “Details will follow in due course regarding the preliminary competitions in all confederations for the FIFA World Cup 2026.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's just finished actually, Real Madrid won again, was a bit odd though for the African and Asian qualifying as they weren't sure if/when/where the competition was happening because of the real world cup and the African/Asian champions leagues hadn't finished.

Stifler Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Everyone would have their own definition of fair though. Should all season ticket holders get the tickets regardless if they purchased a ticket? Should it go by season ticket holders/members who went to most home cup games? In my option they did the best they could. I think there maybe some sort of rule which states that a certain percentage of tickets should go to those who don’t have a season ticket, hence why the latter stages of allocation happened.
