WCQ of Russia is completely over the top. What is the precedent for this and why are Russian footballers answerable for their country's policies?

Basically European countries can decide overnight that neutrality in international competition is dead. Can list any war you want in the past three decades and through it all, all sides were able to compete in international competition. No one even remotely discussed WCQ ban for the US in 2003. Hell, even in middle of Cold War, USSR was not banned from competition.

If this stands, and Russia is essentially eliminated from World Cup because of refusal of these guys to play them, it will destroy international competition for a long time. You can see reciprocal refusals being used for all sorts of political and diplomatic reasons, if FIFA allows this to stand.

Its outrageous and will come back to bite the people being politically expedient and bowing to the mob.

I dont NT should be banned either. We have zero precedent for this. Between this and the Qatar boycott talks before it, Euros are trying to set the grounds for football world where its only acceptable to compete and host World Cups in Western Europe and North America.

I said something like this last week but you articulated it way better than I could. Seeing all these Ukrainian flags in peoples profiles, the same ones who are anti-immigration and kneeling is just beyond hypocrisy.

Politically neutral only when it’s convenient. Qatar is still hosting the World Cup but the fools now want to be moral arbiters? I swear I hate this world.

He’s still a piece of shyt (as are they) but I can recognize the overkill of the situation. The two aren’t mutually exclusive.

The is the absurdity of linking it to Zouma. Are you being obtuse?

That was absolutely ridiculous. One of worst decisions I’ve seen in years.
