I suspect, & cba to investigate, they have a few 'naturalised' players in the squad. Only 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was my money, and I don’t gamble, I’d not be putting it on Ecuador. What are the bookies saying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t too difficult a point to understand RW, you said we should respect Qatar, “their laws and their lands”. Thought that sounded funny coming from a good British Military man like yourself. Not sure what difference that would make? 38 countrys I’ve been to with the Mil, never had any major problems and respected their land and laws at the same time. Many Brits won’t from all backgrounds so why you focus on the mil is a bit odd, but to be expected. And no bitterness towards any nationality, again like many others on here you do a lot of assuming and end up looking quite the cockwomble.

So 150,000 non burqa wearing, say. ⅙ of those, max, footballing peak ages. That's a potential of 25,000 players. Not all will be athletic, or football competent. Let alone international football competent. To win the Asia Cup is quite the ask from, maybe 1,000 people max. Not that I don't trust them, you'll appreciate.

Marc505 Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 They're the worst opening titles for a World Cup I've ever seen. Lineker looks like he's presenting news of another royal death. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missed a trick there It would have made a strong statement both financially and morally for them to do that. I know they'll talk themselves around it, but we've just had Lineker ask Alex Scott "why are you here then?" live on air. Good question, they should all have been asking it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
