  • Furious!

    Wales and the one love armband.

    Wales are "furious" players were threatened with bookings if they wore the OneLove armband and showed their support for LGBTQ+ rights with the rainbow flag at training.


    Good for the FAW and the Germans.

    Could be the end of FIFA this. No less than they deserve.

        Re: Furious!

        what would be a decent protest is that Wales and England players just sit down after kickoff, leave the ball where it is, sit around and have a chat, maybe have a keepy-up comp in the centre circle

        let it be known its in protest

        both countries take the point each

          Time for a rival body to challenge FIFA. They had a chance to clean up their act when Blatter and co left but they've failed miserably.

            I think in the interests of international good will, a decision on your proposal should be delayed until Saturday, but I think it’s a great idea in principle.

                We should ask the Saudis to set up a LIV football tour

                  Tend to agree. The World Cup has gone to Qatar, all the teams have gone, the officials, the politicians, the media, the fans. Now it's all about bucket hats and hands over mouths.

                    In response to the FAW, FIFA has confirmed that fans with Rainbow Wall bucket hats and rainbow flags will be allowed entry to the stadium for @Cymru’s match against Iran on Friday. All World Cup venues have been contacted and instructed to follow the agreed rules & regulations. https://t.co/9XRlx98V6h

                      It could be like the Western Front 1914. I like your idea. Now, that would be something worth watching.

                        Have you seen how much of UK PLC Qatar own? These rainbow flags are just another distraction to keep you distracted.

                          I think this is the beginning of the end of FIFA. This WC has really damaged them and their credibility was already in tatters. FIFA as a brand are over. This is the Gerald Ratner of World Cups. Good riddance to the lot of them.

                            Only problem with that is all the bucket hats and rainbow wearables have been confiscated.

                              We’re only 4 days in as well. Still another 25 days to go.
