They are also trying to bribe national associations by saying if they agree they will get a share of a 7.5 billion pound pot… but if they don’t agree agree and the deal goes through then the pot will only be 2 billion pounds!

The Afcon, Concacaf and the AFC are likely to support it

I feel if it goes through UEFA will boycott….

Look at what happened with F1 and the over commercialised goals from private ownership.

If this happens with football it will be a disaster for fans.

Infantino doesn’t even make this suggestion if he doesn’t know he has the support of CAF behind him (they will take the money!) … he is probably calculating he has most of AFC as well.. so that gets him to the almost half he needs! Then pluck off OFC and a large part of Concacaf and he gets there!

If UEFA boycott that kills most potential revenue …

Havalsnge did this. At first he was seen a breath of fresh air helping spread football to more people around the world. However with what we now know, he was utilising the problems with old FIFA and making political and monetry gain out of it.

"Here comes the civil war…

UEFA votes to boycott any future World Cup if FIFA goes ahead with the deal

Can UEFA live without FIFA… yep!

Can FIFA live without UEFA… hmmmm

A 48 team World Cup is going to be pretty shit without any European nations

55-0 vote

Very damning

Fifa have to scrap this now"

Infantino won't..

Too much money in the proposal for him..

He probably expected Uefa to do this so it'll be interesting to see how he spins it, more than likely that Western privileged nations are stopping poorer countries from developing their infrastructure etc..

I propose we hold the next World Cup on the grass behind Tesco’s. Jumpers for a goal posts and who ever is least hung over can be ref. Designated spot for the old guy in the cap who watches every match. No vaping at half time for the players but the assistant coaches can have a quick drag.
