I read the PR statement from this group of people and it seems their request centers around the anti-government interference rule that FIFA has, which is a fair reason but in practice FIFA has been notoriously inconsistent at enforcing in the past, turning a blind eye to several cases.

They are represented by a Spanish firm after all... #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. It's a perfectly reasonable argument that has a 0% chance of being successful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to admit this time is different, it's hard to be so excited about the World Cup when there are more important things in your country but still this is the national team and the majority still supports it. and I have to add except 2 or 3 players, the rest spoken out against the regime. (as much as they could) if anybody follows Iranian football almost nobody celebrates scoring a goal these days, not in our local league, not those in European leagues. thepharoah and intoronto 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vektor 3,195 Posted October 27, 2022 #1140 Share Posted October 27, 2022 So damn pointless if they will still play at the World Cup. Either boycott the event or focus on your matches instead of doing this bullshit that will achieve absolutely nothing. Western nations did the same thing during EURO 2020 in Hungary and that didn't help progressives here at all.
