How can anyone be expected to afford this?
>>152471108>Based on England reaching the final
Who the fuck would want to do this
>>152471108Just watch it on the telly, Rockefeller.
This World Cup will be shit I reckon
says a lot about this country when this mong can't even write the pound symbol correctly but does the american one fine
>>152471108Family-less poorfags need not apply
>NOOOOO!!!! I DESERVE TO GO ON 2 WEEK LONG VACATIONS ACROSS THE GLOBE!!!!!!
>>152471108God almighty take some handwriting lessons
>>152471410The normal British way of traveling is to spend 75 euros to fly to some other European country on Ryanair, find a pub that is exactly like the one they go to at home, drink exactly the same way they do at home (into a stupor and getting into fights) then fly back. That's what they are used to.
>>152471775You need more?
>>152471108>£42,275Plus mandatory 30% tip.
The normal American way of travelling is to spend 9 hours driving to a town within the same state, find whichever motel looks least likely to get shot up in a drive-by, eat exactly the same way they do at home (chain burger restaurants) then drive back. That's what they are used to.
>Based on England reaching the finalThe three lions will help this lad to cut his costs.
>>152471410Kek I have been seeing this a lot from the EurosEuropeans think they are the individually as a person the protagonist of the world entitled to everything and it is the funniest shit ever, then project it on others. They think they are good vs everyone else being evil.The upcoming war and extreme reduction in state-sponsored welfare programs when they have to fund a military is going to hit them very hard, they are not realty for reality
>>152471108bongs are so poor they riot in the streets if their clubs matchday tickets go from 20 pounds to 21 poundsthis is america bitch we pay hundreds of dollars for tickets get used to it
the scariest thing is not only will americans pay it, they'll actively defend it, as if anyone suggesting the prices are too high is an insult to their country as a whole. they'll go into some larp mode how they're rich and that 5k is nothing despite it being the average monthly wage there whilst also having the highest homeless population in the worldreally werid country and people
>>152472064A small amount of people will go to a game out of novelty and just pay it as the price of access. Most people aren't going to a game or even will know it is going on. Average people are not spending $4200 for a ticket to the final.
>>152472064Attending the World Cup is not your right as a human, sorry Nigel.
The saddest thing about what has happened to the cost of sports is that nothin will change until fans make the change happen, and no one ever will. Complain all you want. Until stadiums are half or less filled for every sport and TV ratings crater, no changes will ever be made. The athletes will get richer and richer while the fans are the ones expected to fund their lifestyles with our increasingly poorer lifestyles. The only sport I watch now is NFL, but you can be damn sure I don’t watch it live to be bombarded with commercials. I pirate the condensed versions of games on Monday and don’t watch a single ad. I’ll never pay to watch a game in person. I’ll never pay for team attire from their store. I’ll never contribute to TV ratings.
>>152472064>the scariest thing is not only will americans pay itNo one in America right now besides those who should be deported would actually want to go to this even if it is $0 lollllllllllllllllll
>>152472207Lmao true. I live in a city the matches are taking place in and I couldn't give a shit less. Maybe if team USA were playing and someone offered me free tickets. Otherwise I'd rather go fishing something.
europoors actually think normal people are supposed to be able to attend these games lmaothe stadiums will be half empty and the half that are there will be celebrities or corporate drones from all the sponsorsyou're just gonna have to watch on TV back in your dingy little village, sorry. hope you enjoy the 3 minute commercial break each half :)
>>152471775Sounds kino.
Strange that Europeans blame ticket prices being high despite demand being highBasic economics lol
>>152471775This is why the prices are so high, so we don't turn american cities into Benidorm for a month.
>>152472277why are you talking like this is good and exactly how it should be? its meant to be the working class sport
>>152472748cause i was kidding
>>152472761genuinely couldn't tell if you were being serious on first read. some of your compatriots absolutely love this stuff being the way it is.
>>152471284>>152471728nobody (hand)writes nowadays, no need.
>>152472748MLS games are pretty cheap, this is the World Cup though
>>152472781i do think a lot of bongs/euros i've seen on twitter and shit are extremely naive if they ever thought they could just come here and watch multiple games for an affordable price, but yeah it shouldn't be that way.
>>152471108stop being poor
>Brits getting out-angloedLove to see it.
Somebody has to subsidize all the games that nobody will attend.
>Based on England reaching the final
>willingly giving money to the fifa-jewlol
>>152472748>working class sportHow many of your top league teams are owned by foreigners?
>>152472963We were all expecting expensive and would be complaining if it was what we expected. Its just even worse than anticipated.These were the prices listed on the initial bid to host. Nowhere fucking near.
>>152472867>nobody handwrites nowadays>pic in OP is literally handwrittenWhat did he mean by this?
>Going to every match>Two week vacation between New England, New York and Dallas>For a family of 5Honestly this is just ragebait.
>>152473088all part of the same problem that we also complain about
£200 a day? erm what about breakfast
>>152473105ngl it's not even that expensive
>>152473107Without practice your skills decline in anything
>>152471900ThisHe didn't factor in the tip, sales tax, and the $50 bill he'll need in order to slip ICE from getting deported.
>>152473105Anyone who said you were getting into any match for $20 was lying to you so hard lmaoThat is the biggest red flag ever
>>152472064>the scariest thing is not only will americans pay it, they'll actively defend itwe don't care about your shitty sport but interesting cope Mohammed
>>152473149That bit seems unrealistic but no fan gets a say anyway, its all decided by bribing the FAs of countries who have never even qualified.
I don't get why anyone expects anyone to do something nice for them? Like why should some billionaire sports team owner or some old money cunt running a faux nonprofit give you a penance just for being the first fan in line? Why do you expect that, why do you lean on that. The world is about survival not comfort.
>>152473153you also defend paying $300 for college "football" tickets where the players don't even get paid also
>>152471108Why does this persons handwriting make me angry
>family of S Whore Townlol
>>152473172They get paid now dipshit
>>152471141the dumbest part by far
>>152473172i don't watch handegg either mate
>>152473163Why do you think football got so popular in the first place? Because people made it their weekly routine going to games for pocket change for like a whole century.
>>152471108>assuming Englel make it to the finallol lmao even.
>>152471108Fact: it's much better watching from home now with all the 4k tvs and realistic sound and whatnot.
>>152473172>where the players don't even get paid alsoBefore the NIL era they got a full ride scholarship which means tuition + housing + meals paid for and numerous other benefits, tangible and intangible. They were compensated then and even more now.
I didn't know Euros were so bad at economics lolBut I guess the same stock that created Adam Smith also created Karl Marx
>>152473133scroll up and make another screenshot to show the missing $10 item
>>152473149>>152473162having said that, it would still have been double what the last world cup was and most knockout categories are a good 500% higher
>>152473153>we don't care about your shitty sportthere are 100 million brown people that do and your government literally paid FIFA to host it. contrast that with the NFL literally paying to host games in the UK
>>152473189And so what? Now they can go to a pub, pay a few quid for a pint or two and watch the match on a big television instead while the crowd is a mix of wealthy regulars and people going to one or two matches a year. Just watch lower division matches, go to friendlies against literal who's that are happening within a few miles of you and get drunk at a nice bar or pub with a bunch of people wearing shirts singing songs like they're actually there.
>>152473229What is supply and demand? Do they not teach basic economics over there?
>>152473234doesn't apply here. the top football teams could literally sell 200k tickets yet tickets are still affordably priced. you as an american get so used to being gouged but it doesn't apply in other countries
>>152473234yes but we have laws also
>>152473268How much demand are there for tickets? I also assume you're not paying for the box seats
>>152472627Football isn't business you fat retard
>>152473268I just go to high school games for $6
>>152473229>Richest country in the world with huge population means nore expensive ticketsYes, that's because there's more demand.
>>152473232Great have that thing you love taken away from you and put up with something inferior.I'm lucky in that my club isn't in the Premier League so I'm not getting rinsed too badly every week.
>>152473189Because the rules are dead simple and most people are too retarded to comprehend anything more complex than the offsides rule. I don't buy the economical argument.
>>152473284man utd currently have a 120,000 people long waiting list for season tickets. season tickets cost about £1200 for the best seats, which are some of the highest in the sport, but compared to american sports that would get you what, 3 games?
>>152471410I kinda doNot that I will
>why is it expensive to travel across the world, take a month's vacation, and attend 8 separate games of something that is purely for an ephemeral entertainment and has no actual lasting "value"i hate this retard
>>152473322This is cope that only idiot Americans use
>>152473326have you spotted the connection between the waiting list and the very low price?
>>152473288but this thread is full of americans saying none of you careevery other world cup was a mix of fans from everywhere like a massive party but this will just be a few cunts in suits asking who's on at the half time show
>>152471108>5 people being on holiday for a month is expensivewow, no shit
>>152473286It is too lol
>>152473322>I don't buy the economical argumentYou really think if football from the outset was a week's wages for entry that it would have ever got off the ground as a sport?
>>152473347has nothing to do with your supply and demand argument. demand is high, prices aren't.
>>152473314What are you supposed to do, reduce the population of fans?
>>152473386Ticket ballots
>>152473386No just stop gouging for more profit at every opportunity and show some respect
>>152473379the point is that if they decided to price it based on demand it would be much higher and you didn't need to wait 47 years to get season tickets.
>>152473421The point is they can't because we're a civilised country with regulations stopping rich tossers merking people
>>152473409Respect for what?Sports has always been an economic thing, despite your socialist views on it
>>152473232>Just watch em in the pub bro!With kids @ 2 a.m. kickoff?
>>152473133>Las Vegaslmaoalso, there is $10 added in there somewhere that isn't listed. was there another item that didn't make it into that screenshot?
>>152473442so enjoy never getting season tickets lmaothere is a cost to everything, someone pays it, in your example it's the people who can't get season tickets because the price is artifically low.
>>152473449In your country. Which is why you have terrible atmosphere and watch terrible sports designed to stop for adverts
>>152473468You can go to matches with about being a sth
>>152471108Donald J. Trump
>>152473377Almost any major sport today got off the ground at some point in time with dirty cheap tickets. You can still go to a Major League Baseball game today for literally one dollar but nobody talks about the economics of baseball as such an integral factor to what makes it popular.
>>152473232Why are you saying this like it's a good thing?
>>152473573I just stated the facts it's neither good nor bad, it's just how the world works. Your problem is you view the world as if some actions are good and some are evil, all actions are just actions, they have no intent other than self-interest.
>>152472748it is ripping off europoors and shitting on their dumb sportit is objectively a good thing
>>152473991Very unchristian view of the world for such an outwardly christian nation
>>152474027u think the US of A is a christian nation? ngmi
>>152474018Zoomers view things too much as good or evil. The first generation that went socially backwards.The first generation named by 4chan.
>>152474038Well you're always harping on about it. Mind you your churches are also constantly asking for more tips. TV evangelists couldn't have happened anywhere else.
>>152473991>stated factsYou described a shit situation which doesn't need to exist, and only does exist to the extent that people put up with itIt's got nothing to do with morality. It's "we don't want this". And it isn't a question of how the world works. It's about how football works. Your problem is you've got not fucking clue about football
>>152474041i am a 30 year old man with a kid sonny boy
>>152474027We're not a Christian nation, we're a capitalist nation. I eaten bread and sipped wine between 40 Wall Street (Now The Trump Building, with a restaurant called Nero Lab that has been opening soon for 5 years) and the NYSE more times in the last decade than I've taken communion at a church.
>>152471108>flying to the other side of the world for a footie game>to one of the most expensive cities in the world>attending every game>taking 4 weeks off to do it>taking your entire family with you to every game>Based on England reaching the finalMoron.
>>152473517MLS is still cheap.I don't know why Euros expect the World Cup to be cheap. I think this is a real difference in worldview. Also Americans are much richer and make way more money than Euros. I can understand sticker shock. The NFL is super expensive but has a huge contingent of working class fans as anyone who has been to a game can see.
>>152474027>>152474038>>152474056Clearly the solution is to copy the UK way (we must import 3 billion Pakijeets)
>>152473991>Your problem is you view the world as if some actions are good and some are evilThe funny thing I just realized over the years, is the final conclusion to the way they act over millennia that Europeans practice Izzat just like Indians do
>>152473354>>152473229Americans don't care.But America is a much more desirable destination than fucking Qatar. There's a reason 2022's tickets were cheap
>>152474133feel like Germany was the best place for the WC>soccer crazy>good train network and cheap travel>lots of beer >relatively affordable to visit >brothels in all the major cities
>>152471108Economy flightspoverty rat den motelsCat3$200 per dayis that guy poor or something?
>>152474153>Germany>good train network
>>152474153Why are fags so obsessed with trains?
>>152474185trains are great when theyre going exactly where you want and there arent too many stops and its priced high enough to keeps the worst browns away
>>152474185going from venue to venue during a WC on a train is much easier and more convenient.
>>152474185Why are turds so obsessed with trucks?Trains are urban transport. Watching pro sports at a stadium is a primarily urban thing. There are a few stadia built in rural countrysides, sure. But the vast majority of them are built in large cities with limited parking and cohesive regional transit networks. Trains are nice, you can get wasted after work and not worry about getting home, you can play dumb games on your phone or read instead of focusing on not hitting the car in front of you also it never costs me much more than 120 bucks a month to do all my commuting an extra 80-100 or so if I want to visit family 160 miles away, with a car that barely scrapes the insurance payment
>>152474268The Northeast Corridor is gonna be FUCKED this summer.
>>152474289I want to go places the train won't take me
cant decide how i feel about the high prices. im a little upset that even the worst games are more than im willing to paybut the high prices means the resale ticket jews will get a lot less money. and only foriegners are going to waste their money on it and a lot of the money will stay in the US, so overall its probably a good thing.
>>152474304its not the pope. theres no reason to travel if youre not attending the game. same travel impact as nfl but summer.
>>152474155This guy is an idiot>$500 round trip flights from England to NAGood luck with that. London to Dallas is already $850 ONE WAY. To say nothing of the flights he needs to the other cities.Reminder to Europoors that no, you will not enjoy driving from Texas to Boston. That's over 26 hours of nonstop driving, assuming absolutely no traffic.>$200 spending money per day for a family of 5That will barely cover one meal at a nice restaurant after tax and yes, tip.>$75 travel to each gameIf he just means an uber from his hotel to the stadium, for 5 people on a high demand day it'll probably be $100 each way.He's probably underestimating the cost by at least 100%
>>152474289Urban public transport is filled with unpleasant characters that I don't have to deal with in a carUnfortunately the people who push public transport also thinks those type of people shouldn't be arrested because they're black and incapable of accepting responsibility for themselves
>>152474382The guy's plan was to base himself in Orlando for some fucking reason
>>152474185
>>152474437No fucking way lmao. Probably so he could go to Disney World between matches. I bet he thinks you could drive from NY to LA in 4 hours
It's a once in every 4 years event, also I haven't look up the locations but wouldn't they be flying between cities too? Surely he doesn't think going from Texas to Miami or wherever these are set is the same as London to Birmingham
>>152471281Yeah, the popular games will have quiet rich fans and the games with tiny island nations will be 1/4 full
>>152474469It's like staying in London for a world cup in Italy lmao
>>152474382I agree he's at least $20k off.
>>152474502europoors have no idea how big the USA really is
>>152474502He actually thinks he can base in Orlando and keep costs reasonable>>152474538
once fifa started using multiple countries to host a single tournament this whole travelling around following your team business ended. 20 years ago. it's not realistic anymore, just watch it down the pub with the lads.
>>152474405It's the craziest type of main character syndrome, "stats say the subway is safe" while they check a car for a schizo or homeless before they get into it. I love public transportation but I guess I am in the minority because I fully support execting these schizos that make life hell on the subway.
>>152474581>just go to the pub at 2am and have to wait around for an hour because a cloud appears in the sky
>>152474382>>$200 spending money per day for a family of 5>That will barely cover one meal at a nice restaurant after tax and yes, tip.Assuming they all get $20 per day to tip the doorman, that's another $20 to buy a stadium hot dog each. And good is.tbf, it's the $35,000 in ticket prices alone which appears the part he's really complaining about here, not unrighteously. And that's assuming he can score 5 for every round at current FIFA base price, which I'd guess is way optimistic.
>>152474613>or spend 40 grandalso i'm not scottish, our games are on at 10pm at the latest
>>152474563If he is basing in Orlando really he wants an excuse to pay in to go to Disney World and Universal between games He is larping about having any issues with price for social media bait
>>152474662Haiti is 2 a m. K.O. chief.
>>1524746314 billion people want tickets idk what you're expectingI got one single ticket for a game in Seattle because that's all I could affordIt's what I expected
>>152474677I AM NOT SCOTTISH>croatia 9pm>ghana 9pm>panama 10pm
>>152474631You don’t need to tip the doorman
>>152474689congrats on getting bummed ig
It's funnier watching in England anyway.Just go down the pub or boxpark or Trafalgar Square or something.If not I'm sure your local club will be showing games either in the bar/lounge or fan area
>>152474704Yes I am just (slyly backtracking having misread your post) pointing out, 2 a.m. *is* a playing slot. And as entitled Englishcunt, assuming you'll make the final while avoiding the 2 a m. slot every round you play is somewhat optimistic.
>>152474732it's better watching when there's atmosphere in the ground, which won't be provided by people who can spend 4k on a ticket
>>152474732>boxparkutterly vile experience. but a good pub garden in the summer with everyone there wanting the same side to win is a thoroughly enjoyable time.
>>152474719They don't know that tho.
>>152474757If we win the group it'll be Atlanta, Mexico City, Miami, Atlanta, New Jersey - kick offs will all be well before midnight
How many working class people went to qatar?
>>152474806Was for >>152474745
>>152474855Yeah, runner-up (for Group L) is a midnight slot in Leafland. But you are otherwise right, it's probably only us get 2 a.m. games. Just realised there's 5 a.m. (Bongtyme) games as well, which is a bit shit for completists.
>>152473088And we hate it
>>152474849I’m sure all the Indians they brought in to fill the stands were working class
>>152474907Runner up spot may be favourable in some ways and I don't mind staying up, but will win the group. CrOAPtia are shot and Ghana and Panama are shit
>>152474289I have zero idea why anyone would want to live in an urban setting anywhere on the planet, not even just the US but also in EuropeCities are the ultimate cattle hellscapes
>americans defending this itt thank fuck china will surpass you in EVERYTHING in the next 5 years
>>152471108Don't go, don't watch. Simple as.
>>152471966A little surprised not one soul pointed out the insane degree of irony in this post. So much so it's genuinely artful
>>152471141Not really that unlikely. England winning the final, however, is another matter.
>>152475625That is the funny thing bugleaf I am aware of the whole Americans presenting themselves as protagonists of the world meme. I think those people retarded kekEuros do not have self awareness to think they are doing it or project on Americans their own flaws, and will never accept responsibility for themselves or their flaws and unrealistic entitlements. That will make the depression and war on their continent far worse for them.
>>152475701And before you hyperfocus on one thing to avoid actually replying because I mistyped>those people ARE retardedSee I can admit I made a mistake and am flawed. Europeans cannot.
>>152472064Eurobros..... not like this
>>152475745I am sure entire stadia filled with daytrippers+family who are only there because 'convenient for their schedule' will be realllly conducive to a great atmosphere. Prices are fucking 5x Qatar already, FIFA need a holiday in the woodchipper.
>ITT: euros can’t afford america AND STAY OUT
>>152475872The whole idea of a World Cup (all countries travel to one country to play all games) is counterintuitive to having a great atmosphere. The World Cup by its structure is not meant to If they wanted a great atmosphere they would have a home/away format
>>152475909They 'can't afford america' as thieving FIFA cunts are Final Boss'ing them on ticket prices before they even had a chance to get ripped off by your fellow countrymen. 5x Qatar price (and rising) from a shower of whores already rolling in a mountain of WC TV Gold - there is zero justification for this, none.
>>152475992The World Cup was always travelled to by national team supporters, until they started with bs like Qatar and USA!USA! outmastering Ticketfuckingmaster. I'd agree they don't give a shit about having a good atmosphere tho, otherwise they'd hold it in a proper football country, one where fans aren't being nickel and dimed to death.
>>152475543You're just used to putting cows on trains. I'm used to people getting on trains, just keep sending us the beef and we'll keep paying you for it so you can get your Cabelas shopping sprees and I'll go to Trader Joe's We shouldn't fight, and should just accept we live different lives
>>152475543Living in a city is great. There's so much shit to do and so many people to do it with. If you never want to leave the house then it's definitely not worth it but I'm 15 minutes from world class anything you can imagine.
>>152474612Schizos are great. Guaranteed a spacious seat and a free show
>>152475872Prices are 5x Qatar because no one wanted to go to Qatar. People actually want to visit NA.
>>152476791I wish I didn't have a chud phase and settle in a place an hour fifteen away from the nearest city.
>>152476824There's also only what 360k Qataris compared to 500 million North Americans
>>152476859Also our Human Rights violations are so vast they're ignorable
>>152471950Better watch out what you say online. You could get arrested using free speech where you live. Imagine living in that dystopia and having the gall to criticize another country.
>>152471410A foreign concept for Americans, that's for sure
pay up thirdies, lmao. usa number one
>>152472064I look forward to the Murricans going "I could go if I wanted to because I am rich but I am not interested in football" posts that will be incoming.
>>152477106I mean, it's undeniably true.Anons on this board spend thousands on season tickets for sports they actually enjoy.
>>152477106Same time of year as:>Stanley Cup>NBA Championship>MLB regular seasonHell, the 2027 Master's lottery website will get more American clicks during this time than any WC youtube highlights
>>152475992Loads of international tournaments have great atmosphere what are you on about

euros sure do love their sour grapes
>>152477401Fox is a bitter cuck
What sort of rattled spacker posts this in multiple threads? >>152477401
>>152473468>there is a cost to everything, someone pays it, in your example it's the people who can't get season tickets because the price is artifically low.Yes, when things are underpriced the "price" shifts to something else. In this case it's the time and dedication. I'd rather that these tickets be distributed to dedicated fans than just some random rich influencers, celebrities, or trust fund kids that will just be on their phone the entire game.
>>152471108ok now do one based on NZ reaching the final

>>152473286Someone come get their retard. You think those owners are buying these teams as a charity? Are you fucking retarded? You are and will always be nothing more than a customer
>>152480709>Berlusconi, Abramovich, Mansour, Al Khaleifi, MBS own/owned footy clubs to make money>FSG are trying to sell Liverpool because it makes too much money>Real and Tottenham whore out their grounds to fund wages because football is too profitable.There's people who want to make football into business -and a lot of them are American- but they are mistaken. Your silly yank takes apply to your silly yank sports.
>>152480881They're trying to sell a business that makes too much money? Is this what you told yourself thinking we'd believe it as you were making this shit up Muhammad? You are a customer retard. These people pay a lot of money to have the right to run a business. You can tell yourself whatever fairy tale bullshit you want >"It's a club and I'm a member!"but at the end of the day they are selling you a good/service and you exchange money. That means you are not only a customer but you are helping fund a corporation that doesn't give a shit about you. Even these national teams are just entertainment corporations like Disney or Netflix
Wait are bongs really too retarded to see that these foreign owners are just using these teams to money launder?
>>152481031>They're trying to sell a business that makes too much money?No the opposite. Hence the green text, you imbecile.>"It's a club and I'm a member!"Not in England. That's a continental thing. You have no clue what you're on about >at the end of the day they are selling you a good/service and you exchange moneyMost of the value in football is non-financial. It's emotional and social. People genuinely love the sport and the culture around it. Which is why there are very rich people who are happy to lose money running football clubs. That ethos is alien to Americans and business people and they're trying to alter the situation with PSR and FFP etc, but it'll fail long term because of the nature of the sport.
>>152481045>buzzwordWhy would Arab governments need to launder money?
>>152471108Not even people here can afford itSoccer/football is traditionally a working man's sport so I get it. I'm not too much of a fan of the World Cup being here myself desu, how is it going to work out when our national infrastructure is horseshit and never will be fixed?
>>152481180Thanks for proving how naive you are to the world around you>MUH HECKIN SOCCER CLUB
>>152481404>says fatty whose never stood on a terrace in his life
>>152481164>CopeYou can write whatever other garbage you want, you're still a customer. Just because you deny it for whatever reasons, the team isn't a charity, and you are their wallet
>>152481432>Bong thinks every person is too poor like him to go to soccer games in foreign countriesYou think it's a flex to pay money to sing songs like a faggot with other men?
>>152481404NTA but it's common knowledge that these clubs were built by the fans hundreds of years ago and stolen by the rich barons that effectively render them useless in the name of their own greed.I absolutely get the plight, wouldn't expect you to understand it because you don't know what it's like. These sports owners ain't your friends. They're built on trusts that disenfranchise working people like you and me. Sherman Anitrust Act anyone? Does it exist anymore?
>>152472688You still will
>>152472064We love rich owners who rape our wallets here
>>152481487>no fun allowed>never have rootsThis is what you sound like desu
>>152481404That's not an answer. You don't have an answer. Because you were talking nonsense. These people run countries. If they needed to do financial shenanigans they'd do it in houseWhy would Arabs need to "launder" money they got selling oil anyway?They waste money on football because they want prestige, status, a reputation buff. They also unironically love the game.For all their faults, Arabs are a chivalrous lot. They have a more developed sense of honour (and mayhem because of that, a better sense of humour) than Americans, in the main.
>Americans will actually defend getting ripped off like this
>>152481658>CopeThanks again for proving you have no clue about the world around you. These clubs are used to money launder to hide whatever else needs to be hid for whoever else. You think Roman (((Abrahomovic))) was squeaky clean? Retard. All these sports are just an excuse to wash money but I wouldn't expect you to understand that since you seem naive enough to think these owners are a charity
>>152481848You're scared to reply to me>>152481626 I see.Robber barons and violations of Sherman Anitrust Act are alive and well in 2025. Teddy would be rolling over in his grave over fags like you.
