FIFA is bent and it always has been. The same goes for UEFA . The whole lot needs jogging on.

Fifa facing legal action from 3 states with a 4th to join in re inflating prices by limiting tickets and other underhand methods! Look at some of the prices....30k ...touchline...not even box

I’ve been to the US more than 25 times, mostly business trips but have many work colleagues who live there.Since the 90s how much even long haul flight has moved on !
Tourism has been declining for years, back in the 90s to about 2013 it was relatively cheap, the pound / euro was strong and you genuinely could get bargains out of maceys etc, car hire, gas, hotels, eating out all lower than the UK.
But today that’s not true factoring all the geopolitical issues. I was there a couple of years ago on the west coast in the large malls - struggled to find anything worth purchasing.
When it comes to watching sports out there be it the hockey, football, basketball, soccer and baseball some of the stadiums are massive it’s more like an even where your whole family goes and you spend all day there not just for the match / game, the US are very good at turning them into ‘events’.
And it is a lot more expensive.
I still expect the World Cup will be a success financially but for travelling fans from uk / Europe likely mixed feelings.

I'm happier Infantino will apparently be made to eat his words
Infantino said the World Cup, consisting of 104 matches, will be the equivalent of “three Super Bowls a day” over five weeks.

Yep I noticed that also. This could well turn out to be an almighty flop financially for the Yanks.

Glasner is certainly going to be a hard act to follow for whoever takes over, well done CP.
On another note, the world cup, has anyone been following the debacle re hotels and tickets
I saw a CNN hotel association interview where they said the bookings they expected just aren't happening, their normal clientele aren't booking either, year on year 60% down. Same thing reported with ticket sales today for the 1st England warm up in Florida, 50000 tickets unsold...expat county too!

Well done Palace . Another great win by honest means.
Can Varsenal make it a clean sweep for England?

Indeed now for arsenal to step up and complete the European clean sweep.

On a brighter note. Well done Palace

Really, to be fair, I like the lad, good player
And I certainly wouldnt want Rashford back, fek him!
My only concern is how the current front 3 pans out

Got to agree, bit odd, then again if thet keep both....
And besides, like you said, Rashy is proven, surely he's the 70m 
 @ scozza
You know what, bet Carrick would love R back....hmmm

They can afford Gordon but not Rashford? 🤔
Gordon is bang average. Rashford has proved himself there. Something not right there. Utd need another striker he may be on his way back. Don't tell Scozza....😲

Certainly doesn't bode well for Rashy, then again they could probably keep both!
Not sure Alverez is worth 100m.
