Human Rights World Cup - my arse!

I have sympathy with them as well Swiss, of course they want to play in the WC Finals, but to do that they must have decided that their career ambitions were more important than any moral or political concerns about Qatar. In which case, having subjugated their principals to career ambitions, it's the height of hypocrisy to now start moralising about Qatar and/or it's governance. They wanted to play football in a WC Final, and never mind where it's being held, and now they are, so imo they should just get on with the football and shut the feck up about the rest of it.

If they start wearing Rainbow bands and taking the knee, I swear to God I will throw up.

That makes two of us BT. I am not watching it on principal. If we have to grovel over slavery we ended over 250 years plus ago then why watch modern slavery in this world cup. The dead worker families from Napal etc get nothing yet I must watch BLM knee bobbing virtue signalling. Well not me.

Better keep the bucket close, BT. I have no idea what trans rights etc has to do with football. Height of hypocrisy when, apparently, gay footballers are scared to «*come out*». With all the armbands and knee taking, *rse licking etc you would have thought that any gay footballers would be worshiped.
