    There's a very definite sense of pathos with Ronaldo now that wasn't there even six months ago. The lone and level sands (of Saudi Arabia) stretch far away.

    'Messi decapitated during World Cup celebration' would be a fun end to the year.

    However, the tournament will still be played out within five weeks from mid-June 2026

    12 groups of 4 would be 104 games, if you do that in the same time frame it will be 5 or 6 games a day in the group stage.

    Imagine if that was a power line. He'd be electrifying...like he is when he graces a football pitch.

    The link goes to a very interesting article which covers every conceivable point of view (including some less expected ones), however would you just look at the comments. A seething mass of people (many of them Arab/African, but plenty of 'gammons' too) who feel enlivened and enabled in expressing their homophobic views in response to a guy posting an article he's written. I remember a similar phenomenon when Michael Holding gave his address about racial history on the cricket. There's so much frustration and anger out there about people's escapist bubbles being penetrated.

    I honestly wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the progress made since the 1960s ends up being rolled back in my lifetime.

    Razing all arab nations to the dirt and taking their wealth and resources should be the next step. They've proven they deserve no better.

    Imagine if these societies spent as much time and effort in helping their young identify their gender, not needing to send off their grandparents to care homes and not spending more time with dogs than their own mothers. Crusty arseholes are a minor.

    Yes. Two goals against the Swedes and seemed to be at the heart of everything.

    Alves (super talent btw) is a bit of piss taker/showboater so there is an indication that is was “retribution” for that as pathetic as it sounds.
