OT: Soccer thread

[LeafGm]

Looks like CONCACAF has rejected the plan unanimously. Apparently their public statement notes:

“…the need for private equity investment to fund new and existing FIFA Forward programs following the most profitable FIFA World Cup in history was questioned.”

Which is a damn good point.

I’m actually a bit shocked CONCACAF rejected this unanimously. I just assumed that Trump had surely infiltrated & corrupted US Soccer by now, and that they’d support this plan on behalf of their God Emperor.

What a weird plan to announce without any support on the ground

Apparently they are promising “more tournaments” which would set up a clash with pro leagues.
