One country, one vote

I’m sure the likes of Tonga, Malawi, Nicaragua and Seychelles won’t sniff at that

He’s bought the result already, even if all of UEFA kick off and vote against him it won’t matter

Vote with your feet - UEFA countries should just swerve the world cup and the world club cup. Would they have the balls to do it though with the £s that will inevitably get generated

I don't think it's really about the money tbh, I just don't think teams would boycott it because it only comes round once every 4 years.

The top players maybe have 3 world cups in them, a few have 4. None will accept missing one of those to protest something they probably don't really care about.

One of the top suggestions is they’ll move it to every two years to get more return on their investment

It is totally about money for Infantino and his cronies

Doubled up his bribe offer

EUEFA wont boycott it, next World Cup is in Spain/Portugal.

Ugh

Where ISN'T the next World Cup?

Glad they've said they'll do this if it goes through, there's been a terrible precedent set of outside influence via Trump interfering with Balogun's red card, which shows exactly what dangers this proposal could bring.

You'd hope that blow back from that, and then this will be enough to make Infantino's position untenable, but I guess time will tell on that.

The whole 'vote for this and we'll give you tens of millions of pounds' is essentially bribery too, so I hope there's some fall out from that as well!

Sounds like CONCACAF will do the same.

I don't know how they expected to get away with it tbh

Doesn't look like they actually bothered to do that part though
