Which is why there will surely be no Haiti fans at their games, for example.
Which is why FIFA should take the WC off the USA - not only can't the US guarantee the safety of fans, they will actively be attacking and kidnapping them.

Anyone who thinks this won't happen at the 2026 World Cup games in the U.S. is delusional.

1-0 up at half-time. Poor game tbh, we have barely got out of 2nd gear, and Ludogorets don't look very good.
As long as we win, I don't care.

So we’re saying X servers are hosting and making available somewhere in the region of 23,000 images that probably meet the legal threshold for CSAM, presumably not only from servers in the US, and no legally responsible person has been arrested yet?
In our conservative estimate, 41 percent of Grok’s images — or 1.8 million — were sexualized depictions of women. Separately, CCDH analyzed how many were sexualized images across genders and ages. Their findings: an estimated 3 million images, including more than 23,000 of children.

This is why something needs to change between now and June.
Even if Trump pulls back a bit, goes quiet on Greenland for a while... as soon as WC is over, Europe loses this leverage if he threatens Greenland (or any of the rest of us) again.
This is why I think the WC should be taken off them now.

Let’s see if Trump follows Putin’s playbook. Russia invaded Crimea days after the closing ceremony of the Sochi (Russia) Winter Olympics. All eyes on late July once the fifa WC ends …?

We seem to have normalised the Premier League's inability to conclude the Manchester City case. The years this thing has taken is pathetic. The longer it has taken the more people have forgotten the magnitude of the alleged offences. Time passing has had a kind of watering down affect on allegations

Again I'm wondering how on earth the World Cup can go ahead as expected.
European nations don't have loads of leverage v the US but we could propose a boycott, which would cause chaos at FIFA and threaten Trump's ego.
Trump is going to turn the whole world against USA (except Russia obvs).

FIFA actually must withdraw the World Cup from the USA now.
Canada and Mexico plenty big enough to run it themselves.
And I have to consider cancelling my flights 🥺

The government should already have deleted its accounts and denounced Twitter such that there could be no doubt that the company was finished as a respectable organisation in the UK.
That this still hasn't happened is some of the most embarrassingly weak and craven behaviour imaginable.

In terms of overlapping and underlapping runs, Tuur Rommens is among the most prolific full-backs in Europe. He makes loads – particularly underlaps in the Westerlo system – and gets into dangerous areas, as shown by SkillCorner data. That will be a big reason why Rangers are buying him.

Barron superb, also with 2 assists as our new corner kick taker, Raskin brilliant too and got a goal, and other goalscorer Fernandez with some really good defending (and a few brainfarts) too.
Another win, another clean sheet, good evening all in 👍👍👍

This is a good point. Brilliant to have a new set-piece coach who can win games for us on his own.
But we have been rubbish at creating and taking chances in open play all season, we can't rely on set-pieces all season!

Result never seemed in doubt after the 2nd goal against a poor Aberdeen team. The lack of creativity and clear cut chance creation is still a worry and something we will need to improve on to keep this pace up. Sunday at Pittodrie we will need to go up a level.

FT 2-0 A solid 3 points at a cold Ibrox this evening as Rangers got the job done early in the 1st half. Improvement in all areas. Connor Barron brilliant with 2 assists against his old ‘stepping stone’ club. Raskin looking like he's hitting some form. We move into 2nd place, 3 points behind Hearts.

Don't blame him for ducking the Yang challenge at the goal, but having been sent off in the semi, his head was gone.

This is an important point I think, it buys Rohl a lot of credit = time. He's definitely now here til the end of the season at least!
Rohl gets the Old Firm monkey off his back quickly as well. Beale and Clement lost several of these before finally winning and that absolutely contributed to supporter dissatisfaction with each of them.
