I wouldn't blame them. I really rate her.

Apparently so do people within the Football Association.

 

[Swiss Tony]

She even by-passed the fans at Heathrow.

Rubiales will be resigning tomorrow.Good.

 

[Gt Yarmouth Shrimper]

Rubiales will be resigning tomorrow.Good.

He's not, defiant as ever.

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

He's not, defiant as ever.

Sometimes you have to know (or learn) what is acceptable behaviour and what is not.

Former Arsenal footballer Hector Bellerin posted this on Instagram:

“The narcissist never believes they have made a mistake, they are able to lie, manipulate the truth and make the victim guilty in order to retain their power over others.”

Bellerin later clarified he was talking about Rubiales and not Ron Martin.

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

Amazing.Still he'll be sacked before long.

 

[southendkid]

This guy's completely lost the plot, he's now threatening legal action against Hermoso's "lies" about the kiss not being consensual. If he'd just apologised this would have been over by now.

FIFA latest world rankings have England still in 4th place whilst Sweden have now shot up to No. 1…can’t see any logic behind that at all.

Spain move up into 2nd and USA are down to 3rd.

It's because we had an "easy" run of matches to the final, you get assigned more ranking points for beating top sides and conversely you lose more points if you fail to beat a weaker side in 90 minutes (as happened against Nigeria, who were 40th before the WC).
