It was a corrupt call, but you feel the integrity of the game is only upheld if the corrupt call is allowed to stand....because it's the US, and because...you know...Trump.

- Now you are upset that Trump follows SCOTUS decisions? [NT] - NedoftheHill - 3:13pm 7/6/26
  - You’re playing the fool quite well today. Hey, what’s changed? [NT] - jimbasil - 3:50pm 7/6/26

    - Besides waffles and trappist ales, you mean... [NT] - iairishcheeks - 5:45pm 7/6/26
    - They followed standard procedure to appeal, not through their King or PM. [NT] - Eli - 5:19pm 7/6/26
      - Actually, they have no standing to appeal either. [NT] - BaronVonZemo - 5:20pm 7/6/26
    - The histrionics are quite amusing. - Hensou - 5:05pm 7/6/26

- Allowing VAR to red card a non-call would be silly. - Hensou - 12:55pm 7/6/26
  - You have no idea what you are talking about. Just stop. [NT] - Chris94 - 2:56pm 7/6/26
    - The Gaslight Gang refuses to address the key issue. [LINK] - Hensou - 3:27pm 7/6/26

        Does Andy Davies not know what he is talking about? You know more than an Elite referee? [NT] - Hensou - 3:42pm 7/6/26

        I agree with Andy Davies, an Elite referee. You and your ilk refute nothing. [NT] - Hensou - 3:48pm 7/6/26
- First time a red card suspension has ever been overturned in the World Cup. - Rooney - 11:58am 7/6/26
  - But twice in this year's qualifying rounds already - ARG & ECU both had red card bans deferred. - BaronVonZemo - 5:01pm 7/6/26
  - WSJ reported that FIFA overturned a multi-game suspension so Ronaldo could play in WC. - NedoftheHill - 3:01pm 7/6/26
    - For the 3rd time, Ronaldo's red card was not issued in the World Cup. - Rooney - 3:07pm 7/6/26
      - You're trying to hang your argument on a technicality. It's been done in WC qualifying rounds - BaronVonZemo - 5:03pm 7/6/26
      - Agreed. And my point still stands as well. Ronaldo allowed to play in WC. - NedoftheHill - 3:10pm 7/6/26
        
        You're not wrong. But no one was arguing the opposite. [NT] - Rooney - 3:22pm 7/6/26
        
        Then my point still stands! Keep flailing away! ;-) [NT] - NedoftheHill - 3:24pm 7/6/26

        Care to discuss how VAR did not follow FIFA protocols? - Hensou - 3:34pm 7/6/26

  - From The Telegraph: - conorlarkin - 11:58am 7/6/26
    - It has placed Balogun in such a precarious position. This is something that will reshape his career - jimbasil - 12:46pm 7/6/26
      - My wife and I agree that the team and Balogun should take the higher road. [LINK] - conorlarkin - 1:01pm 7/6/26
