Draw from the Kennedy Center in Washington on Friday from 5pm
The Kennedy Center is the venue Donald Trump has taken control of which is sinking badly
Entertainment by the Village People and Robbie WilliamsPot 1: Canada, Mexico, USA, Spain, Argentina, France, England, Brazil, Portugal, Netherlands, Belgium, GermanyPot 2: Croatia, Morocco, Colombia, Uruguay, Switzerland, Japan, Senegal, IR Iran, Korea Republic, Ecuador, Austria, AustraliaPot 3: Norway, Panama, Egypt, Algeria, Scotland, Paraguay, Tunisia, Côte d’Ivoire, Uzbekistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, South AfricaPot 4: Jordan, Cabo Verde, Ghana, Curaçao, Haiti, New Zealand, European Play-Off A, B, C and D, FIFA Play-Off Tournament 1 and 2The draw will begin with all the teams from pot 1 being drawn to groups A to L. It will then continue with pots 2, 3 and 4 in that order.

The FIFA fixFor pot 1, Canada, Mexico and the USA, as the host countries, will be identified by different coloured balls and, when drawn, will be assigned to position A1 for Mexico (green ball), B1 for Canada (red ball) and D1 for the USA (blue ball), as already established per the match schedule released on 4 February 2024. The remaining nine top-ranked teams in pot 1 will be identified by nine balls of the same colour and automatically allocated to position 1 of the group into which they are drawn.To ensure competitive balance, two separate pathways to the semi-finals have been established when developing the match schedule. In order to have a balanced distribution of the teams, the four highest-ranked teams in the FIFA/Coca-Cola Men’s Ranking, when drawn, will have the following constraints: the highest-ranked team (Spain) and the second highest-ranked team (Argentina) will be randomly drawn into opposite pathways, and the same principle will apply to the third (France) and fourth (England) highest-ranked teams. This will ensure that, should they win their groups, the two highest-ranked teams will not meet before the final.

FIFA cunts

And here it is folks, Americans have finally brought commercial breaks in the middle of each half, if there wasn't already enough to hate about the 2026 world cup. We now have mandatory water breaks for "player welfare" regardless of weather conditions:

Seems the Pride game was allocated before the fixture was set as Iran v Egypt
Am sure they will embrace it … and each other 
Prematch handshake should become a prematch kiss

This will go well.

2026 World Cup 'Pride Match' to feature Egypt and Iran

How the fuck do a England and Croatia end up in the same group. Absolute fix. 

Australia got lucky and got one of the underwhelming Pot 1 teams ie the hosts USA
Have Paraguay & one of the UEFA playoff teams
Cant complain 

Saw a clip where the USA ‘experts’ were on a panel celebrating that Australia came out 
Usual arrogant Yank cunts 
They played recently in a friendly which USA won against an experimental Aust team
The Americans complained that Australia were too rough
ha ha ha

Who's in Australias Group?

If games go to form and England and others win their group they are likely to play 
Mexico in the Azteca
Brazil in the heat of Miami 
Argentina in Atlanta .. also hot
France or Spain in the final

Can’t believe the path via finishing second in the group is worse than that

Still a bit of an unlucky draw and tricky group when you see some of the other groups. However qualification should be pretty straightforward in first or second and we will have to beat far better than Croatia to win the tournament anyway. 

Good draw for England, I think.

Might do us a favour to play a couple of half decent teams before the knockouts.

I also read that if we top the group, we play a 3rd placed team.

I must admit I am usually invested in the World Cup and England, not that I think we will ever win it but Infantino is a snidey, narcissistic whore whose use of FIFA as a vehicle to shove his tongue up the dictator Trump's arsehole is enough to make you sick  I mean wtf is the FIFA World Peace Prize. You can shove the Trump Soccer World Cup. And also wtf are the leaders of Canada, Trump wants them as the 52nd state or some such shit and Mexico  Trump wants to bomb them, doing coming up to the cսnt. They should be ashamed. The word quisling seems apt.

go and get that next booster, you brain dead carrot haired cսnt

Why you worried about the pricing you have openly admitted you will never ever attend a sports event again plus you couldn't afford it anyway even at tenth of the prices quoted 

duracell rolf harris, I wouldn't fucking go to it if it was free. you fucking thick, jab loving, cripple fiddling bastard

Sounds like one of Englands group games is in Texas & the rest in Toronto Boston or Philadelphia 
Those 3 are close together so makes the initial group travelling for those going

Not going so more interested in the match times
Dont think tv will allow them to play late to avoid the heat so will be some times that aren’t particularly helpful for those with jobs & a love of sleeping 
Agree that it really won’t get going til they ditch half the teams
