🔴 @maddyorr.bsky.social joins players David Wheeler and Hector Bellerin in describing the dangers players and fans face and the lack of leadership from FIFA 😬
🔴 The tournament will send a literal 'dangerous message' by beaming advertising from the world's biggest oil company to billions next year 🤦‍♂️

One year ago, I joined 130+ female footballers calling on FIFA to drop Aramco. 365 days later — still no response.
Big oil and human rights abuses are not the future our game deserves.

Sven Kockelman: “dan daalt de uitstoot maar met 28%...”

Maar 28%? De rijkste 1% bezit 30% van al het vermogen in Nederland. En die vervuilen het meest.

We moeten miljonairs keihard belasten.
Past zo tussen die huisregels van Ajax.

You thought PL clubs partnering with "opaque" (unlicensed, unregulated and illegal) Asian-facing sports betting operators would soon be a thing of the past? Think again.

One thing is clear: renewables don’t fit within the political economy of neoliberal capitalism.

We have to choose between the profits of oil producers, and the health and prosperity of entire societies. But our politicians
care more about the former than the latter.

Gianni Infantino's latest Instagram post on how FIFA is going to help the Palestinians is only for those with strong stomachs. Infantino appears to be laying the ground to buy off the Palestinian Football Association and get them to drop their complaint against Israel, which has FIFA in a corner.

There is also the general silence that follows a lot of this type of business from FAs who mostly quietly seethe. It is the function of the system, the patronage model where money and other benefits are handing out from the top of the governing bodies down to the FAs. Power dynamic leads to silence

FIFA were crowing about how Club World Cup was the most "merit-based" competition in the world. The World Cup? Not so much when it comes to Asia. Qatar and Saudi given home advantage for two mini group playoffs. Now Qatar maximise this by playing crunch UAE game in tiny stadium to limit away fans

Reports that FIFA President Gianni Infantino has arrived in Sharm el Sheikh for the Middle East peace summit. Unclear why he would be required or what his role is.

"Netanyahu hoort in Den Haag om berecht te worden.

Hij bezondigt zich aan genocide op het Palestijnse volk. Hij hoort achter de tralies.

Daarvoor hebben we het Internationaal Strafhof opgericht. Zodat deze mensen hun verdiende straf niet ontlopen."
