FIFA Club World Cup

Did anyone watch the matches? Was it any good?

Nah, he put tarrifs on their owner and the country their owner is from :wink:

The video is hilarious :joy:

There’s an old from midlands Ireland, who sits at the corner of the bar in his local pub…his nickname is Cooley. Don’t know why…

He watches the telly with a jaundiced eye and delivers his verdict on every thing in a similar fashion.

He didn’t watch the CWC, but his summation would be appropriate.

“Well. That was a load of shite.”

It’s an old Oirish term for an eejit, potentially also slightly racist and used to refer to someone with darker than pasty white skin aka a ‘traveller’

I knew he would do this, and for once I am glad, it’s what the whole charade deserves.

Shame he will pop up again next year as I want to watch that. Should get Carney along for it as well that should be funny.

Shame that the Chelsea team didn’t jump and knock him over.

The biggest surprise I had was that FIFA didn’t manufacture a way to get Messi to the final.

Greasy fingered bastard.

Begs the question how much stuff in the Oval Office will go missing over the next 3.5 years?

Greed in entrenched in FIFA’s dictionary. In fact, it’s their Motto.

Oh no, so it means that we will have to take part in this?

Didn’t someone post an article supported by FIFA re new player protections which also included issues around rest and over playing?

They are the biggest culprits by adding more and more games to an already congested roster.
