Breaking: Via @martynziegler.bsky.social Incredible. FIFA has reportedly circulated a briefing on expanding the World Cup to 64 teams, with a decision expected by August 14. As FIFA seeks outside investors, it’s fair to ask: who benefits most from creating even more commercial inventory?

As the ship sinks, everyone will try and build their own story, a narrative for why what has happened should never have happened. But figures like Cordeiro and some of these national and regional football leaders have enabled this behaviour for quite some time. Their roles will have to be considered

Very interesting development. • FIFA acknowledges and respects feedback and concern aired in public • FIFA reaffirms its commitment to an open and democratic consultation • Erroneous reporting in the media disrupted planned consultation process inside.fifa.com/organisation...

Extraordinary development. “No UEFA national teams will participate in any FIFA competition for so long as these proposals remain alive, unless this proposal has been abandoned in its entirety…” Via @martynziegler.bsky.social

What a strange and angry post from the FIFA president. While preaching “love” he has come across extremely thin skinned and while at the same time attempted to downplay what has happened to Iran, fans denied visas, Omar Artan and the Balogun situations as normal. Like in a parallel universe.
