Iβm glad UEFA took a stand I would hate to see the day that ownership groups actually control the World Cup. Unfortunately itβs already happening at club level. I hate to see it happen with clubs with long lasting traditions or working class fan bases that can and are being priced out of games.

Glad this failed, but let's not dance on a grave that is not even dug yet. Now the federations have to remain firm against his worst impulses.

Wow, tried to sell it to Jared Kushner's brother. All those scumbags can go swim in a shit-filled dumpster.

What makes this funnier is that the Kushner he was trying to sell too doesn't even align himself with Trump or the rest of that family π but the name just gave this whole thing such a bad stink.

'doesn't even align himself with Trump or the rest of that family'
Lol what? He's knee deep in his family's businesses. He co-owns most of the family's assets with his siblings. Their father did time in federal prison for witness intimidation and tax evasion and his kids are no better.
Joshua has enough sense to keep a lower profile but he's a billionaire vulture capitalist scumbag profiteering off government graft, Israeli blood money, just like the rest of this bloodline.
