Re: World Cup 2026
It will be a bit boring compared to normal WC's as there will so many teams and games people will lose interest.
I think the only reason this has been done is to ensure it will be impossible for any of the 'big' Footballing nations to miss out, as per Italy, Holland and USA this time.

Obviously, there is a severe case of sleep deprivation affecting most of you as, if you read my post again, you will notice the word 'big' is in parentheses (speech marks to the illiterate amongst you) which indicates the word is not a statement of fact but a suggestion.

Re: World Cup 2026
At least I comment rather than simply bagging everything I don't agree with - how about a bit of positive observation for a change?Sunny Vanilla wrote:I don't know anyone that knows less about football than you.Old Master wrote:

However, that does not affect the point of the argument I put forward.

Question for you, are you then "suggesting" that usa and holland are big footballing nations?
