I don’t think Trumputini or Muskrat cares about the beautiful game anyway. Better to just freeze republican Americans assets in British tax havens, and hit the right people in the place they best understand pain. There’s literally no time to lose.
They'd have to do something that meets the criteria to justify freezing assets. And the US are not going do anything that would be seen as actual aggression toward UK/Europe.
I'm an American.

I fully support this boycott!!! The world should boycott us until Trump's tariffs go away and he fully backs Ukraine.
Apart from the fact that Eejit in Chief Trump has now declared a trade war on two of the countries sharing hosting duties, why would any other decent nation agree to play in a fascist dictatorship?
Absolutely...the UK Government insisted they do it. One player refused outright (I can't remember who off the top of my head) but he would never play for England again.
Forced to do it by British Ambassador Sir Nevile Henderson because of the situation with Germany, Stan culis refused and was dropped from the squad.
England won 6-3 in front of Hitler, maybe the one bollocked twat should have learnt .
So are lesson is to tell fascists to fuck off
That's all about visas and logistics. What about fascism? Today, situation is like German Olympics 1936. That time, world leaders looked the other way. This time, there should be a complete boycott.
don't know who these money grabbers are but it's been to several countries on more than one occasion. England have bid about 5 times and never get a look in (and we invented the bloody game), England should definately boycott, will they? like heck
You forget, football esp. the WC is not about sport it's all about money. The organisers will be right at home in Chumps America. It won't get boycotted. There'll probably be a Russian team there too as special guests.
The world needs to boycott the World Cup if the US is the host. This would be a huge financial hit to the US. Stand together against the Pinko President and his Nazi Buddies.
Happily boycotted 2018 & 2022 over ethical reasons, and will happily skip the US bits of 2026 as well, especially if Trump is still imposing his meaningless chaos on the world.
Not likely to happen at the current rate. Half the countries won't be able to compete as Visas won't be allowed if you are black or from a country that has insulted Trump. So most of Europe.
Nothing will be built because federal funding is all going to Elon.
It's a thought but never going to materialise - can only think of one National FA with the balls to do it - Norway and even they probably wouldn't as they haven't qualified for a while..
Yeah, exactly. I didn't hear any criticism of the team or management or the FA but Lineker and Neville et al too plenty of stick. I thought it was sickening.
Luke Harding clarified the nature of Vladimir Putin’s Russia when he branded it the Mafia State. Now we need to attach the same label to the US under Putin’s most devoted admirer.
they call football soccer and maggots magats. However, if teams didn't boycott Qatar and its slave built stadiums - there's no chance they'll kick USA into touch. The beautiful game succumbed to money and political agendas a long time ago.
I scanned through the FIFA site can't find a ways to contact them and send an email about having USA removed from the list of hosts until Trump is out of office as clearly he will not respect the rules of what the cup stands for.
If FIFA start corrupting the game it is a perfect opportunity for the Europeans plus others to separate from FIFA and poss UEFA, Europe probably pay all the bills.
And it is no game without Europe and even south America
Each country should come up with some chants and songs to mark the occasion.
The ruder the better.
Trump trump you lying cunt
Ya Putin's gimp ya little runt
Will never happen. Too much money in it and too much fun to be had for travelling fans. Teams were told to boycott Qatar but none did. They could give the tournament to Russia again and fans would still be there in droves….
"upholding the highest standards of national security and public safety." whilst the #Muskovites decimate any government agency, like those that do #NationalSecurity and #PublicSafety, never mind consular & visa services!
They should but they don't care - if it was being held in Russia they would all still go - its a multi billion $ industry and industries like that dont care who dies.
I wouldn't blame them. I wondered if EU countries would do that after 47 bragged about rigging the election so he could be POTUS & host the World Cup. 🙄 Jimmy Carter boycotted the Moscow Olympics after Russia invaded Afghanistan & realized later he shouldn't have mixed politics with sports.
Russia 2018, Qatar 2022, USA 2026, Saudi Arabia 2034. The US fits in well with all these despotic nations that grease FIFA’s dirty corrupt hands. I’m proud to say scotland has boycotted it since France 1998.
USA, Russia, Belarus and N.Korea - who else? We will see the weak, the cowardly, those desperate for Trump's approval, American $$$, or frightened of their own populist plastic patriots who claim to be football-fans (so that's England!)
I was thinking this yesterday when they were reporting on a half time show. That gave me the ick on its own.
I suppose we could watch the games in Canada and Mexico and boycott the ones in the US. But it’s still BOKE 🤮
The 2026 World Cup is also hosted by Canada and Mexico... who are under attack by the presidential syphilitic canker sore.
Why not transfer all US matches to 🇨🇦&🇲🇽?
As we don’t know what police numbers will be, and whether there will be riots there. But it is as unsafe for trans, women and gay fans as Qatar - who let’s not forget paid Beckham blood money to promote it.
Trump is probably going to give Russia a wild card and then most European nations are going to boykot the tournament except for maybe Slovakia, Hungary and Serbia.
Including the US teams taking part in the boycott. Otherwise, there will be a claim that the US is the winner by forfeit. I'm sure most US athletes could be convinced.
This is a good shout. But as many have pointed out football is a sport where money kicks money, around a money and occasionally features a leather ball for fun. But mainly money and money and occasionally a dictatorial regime or two, but mostly money.
And, also, the fans!
DO NOT TAKE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY TO USA!
personally, I love many things about the country and have been lucky to visit Grand Canyon, Yosemite also camp in Montana, visit the Flo Keys BUT I WONT VISIT WHILE CHEETO FACE IS IN THE WH.
NOT getting my money!
Good luck with that. Have you ever met a football fan?
The only thing I've seen that might persuade a fan to boycott a world cup is questions over the availability of alcohol.
The USA threatened to boycott the 1936 Olympic Games in Germany, if they had we wouldn’t have had Jessie Owens destroying Hitler’s master race theory. European teams should go, speak the truth, and fucking wallop the yanks if they get the chance.
The Olympic commity should move next Olympics to another country by saying a country need to deserve that privilege
We don’t need another Trumpett parading and saying lies again and we surely don’t wanna take the chance to have a president who will make a blowjob to the mic in front of 100m people
Don't worry Donald is So Great at planning this kind of thing!
He will make it All about the #WorldCup games! He won't demand a spotlight on himself every second or extort all the countries for bribes and mineral rights!
World Togetherness ☮️ an Harmony is all he cares about!
But he is adding NASCAR.
Last games was played in Saudi Arabia under the pretext that human rights would be improved there by interacting. Is the same rationale being applied to this one?
England, Germany, France, Spain, Italy and Brazil (and Argentina if Milllei will let them) should withdraw from FIFA and set up their own competing tournament, inviting others to join them. Then we’d see the market at work…
Canada and Mexico should consider hosting all the games
A Trump America should become a pariah nation
The American people are happy to attend in either country as they’ll need to get away from the felon for a while
I can’t even imagine a world where something like that would happen, it’s the right thing to do (for such a serious principle) but it’s a terrifying thought!
Not gonna happen. The English NT didn't even consider boycotting in 2018 when Russia tried to murder Skripal on British soil. None of the qualified teams boycotted Qatar even though it was common knowledge that thousands of slaves died building their stadiums.
I hadn't thought of that. I'd planned to drive down to a couple of games from Canada, but obviously won't do that now. FIFA is so money obsessed, I expect it'll start pressuring nations to turn up.
Sportfreaks went to non democracy Saudi to play football even though immigrants died as flies building the arena. Women were executed for not wearing full clothing.
Those won't miss world cup even American turned full Nazi.
I think it's distinctly possible the World Cup WON'T be held in the US, most likely on the risks of danger to human health . Neither players or supporters will want to take that risk, not to mention the politics etc

Or it will be civil war and unsafe. :)

It's been a parade of sportswashing since then. Russia, Qatar, US & Saudi.
Trump/Musks 1936 Olympics
they'll use it as a massive propaganda opportunity.
They will punish each and every country, who denies to partizipate ..
We've seen that already with Qatar ...
Frankly... It's no sport anymore on an international level..
