Fucking cunts, too stupid and weak to abandon a league run by fascists.
"Nope, gotta watch ball go left, then right, the left again! It is IMPERATIVE!"

Wait, I thought nosebleed seats started at twice that?

There were like fifteen tickets at a $60 price point, which were technically the cheapest tickets but were basically just a fiction. The nosebleeds for the final do start at like twice that, but group stage matches are cheaper. I do think your broader point is spot on â this is a way to lower prices without admitting theyâre lowering prices due to suppressed demand.

I think I was looking at the final game prices too. But yeah, they're definitely not selling as well this year.

"hospitality suite" is not a private suite, it's one big room with a shitty buffet and is so crowded you won't want to be in there if you care about the game at all.

Hope Trump finds a way to make fifa insolvent.

He'll find a way to give FIFA taxpayer dollars for luxury accommodations.

North Korea and their long range missiles could do the funniest thing in a month or so.

Lying their ass off as usual. Will be interesting to see how much money and prestige this whole mess costs them and the Mango Mussolini đ

I'm currently on a training plan to get a prestigious Strava KOM on a slightly dangerous route and my plan is to make an attempt during every England world cup game because it's the only time there's nobody on the roads. Don't plan on watching any of it this year.
