If we qualify because Trump deliberately attacked Iran, insulted the Pope and then asked FIFA to replace Iran with Italy in the World Cup to mend relations, I become a San Marino lifelong.
This feels like Eurovision which bans and invites whoever they please and then decide the winner by *cough* jury *cough*
don't worry bro you won't qualify,now BoliviaCHADS will have a chance!
start patching your shirt up with the San Marino Football Federation badge then, clownworld is about to stoop one tiny bit lower
>>154335896How's the weather, Asllan?
>>154335896>and then decide the winner by *cough* jury *cough*The juries were a great move by Eurovision. I remember before they had them, and every former communist country did insanely well because Latvia would vote for Lithuania, Lithuania would vote for Latvia, Bosnia would vote for Croatia, Croatia would vote for Bosnia, and the quality of the songs didn't matter at all. It was outrageous a few years ago when that brilliant Norwegian song won the popular vote but came second due to (((jury)) shenanigans, but the juries are a good thing again now that Israel openly keep trying to rig the public voting.
>>154335882I like to think Italy would decline the offer and be too embarrassed to accept an invitation under these circumstances
>>154335882Pussy mindset. Just accept and win
>>154335882How about you fix your youth academy and entire footballing system and quality the right way instead of losing to fucking Bosnia.
>>154338104The shoo-in winner in 2024 was banned for made up reasonshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IiHFnmI8pxg
>>154338104>now that Israel openly keep trying to rig the public voting.tbg I keep voting Israel to make mad all.
>>154338137This is why Slavs will take up the mantle of ‘Western’ Civilization
>>154338104>muh jewsSeething pooslime
>>154338104>muh "East Block voting cabal" theoryShut the fuck up, Terry Wogan. Countries vote for the songs they can understand, simple as.Nobody complains when Ireland always votes for the United Kingdom or when Belgium always votes for the Netherlands or when Portugal always votes for Spain. Neighbors vote for neighbors because they have similar fucking languages often.Just send good fucking songs for once instead of hiding behind "muh Balkaners, muh Baltics, muh Slavs".It's been 20 years. Get over it.
>>154335882>San Marino lifelonga fucking hilltop
>>154338906This YouTuber is blatantly controlled by Eurovision, and yet even he is going into proper journalism and finding what's wrong with Israel's participation in Eurovision. And obviously I am anonymous here so you can pretend I'm Muslim if you want, but he appears in his videos so you can tell he's not Muslim:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTOEmAimB1k

You Italian niggas should know that if your fed accepts this and you actually play you will lose ALL respect forever. Fuck ass "We weren't good enough to qualify, we're only here cuz papa trump said so" weak motherfuckers.Don't do it. Have some shame.
>>154338111embarrassed of what? the likes of curacao are in it which has little to do with merit
>>154339660>qualified in their confed with the rules established by their confed and FIFA>NOOOOO Curaçao and [insert] don't belong in muh trad wc because Italy who had multiple chances to qualify in their confed following their confed's and FIFA's rules and didn't just has to be there ok?!?!?!?!cheaters never prosper
>>154339660I thought you guys were against handouts?
>>154335882countries being given invites due to war isn't a new thing, you might even win the tournament
>>154341171What exactly is sacred about fifa rules that we all know are deliberately designed to include lesser countries for the sake of world parity? You just dogmatically accept low expectations for the third world bc rules are rules and then have a conniption if they go another direction for an extenuating circumstance which would actually include the best ranked team that hasn't qualified? How is it cheating? You may be deranged
>>154339269western euros don’t do neighbor voting at all
>>154339269You might be the only person I've ever seen attempt to deny that Eurovision voting blocs are a thing
>>154342012what is the extenuating circumstance?>failed to finish top of their qualifying group>failed to win their playoff sudden death matchL on top of L...and they're supposed to play over other teams who did WIN their matches because muh history o algoAnyway this thread is done:"An envoy for President Donald Trump reportedly asked FIFA to replace Iran with Italy in North America this summer. However, Italian sports officials shot down that idea, saying it was "not appropriate.""First of all, it’s not possible. Secondly, it’s not a good idea," Italian Sports Minister Andrea Abodi said Thursday. "Qualification is done on the pitch."Luciano Buonfiglio, the president of the Italian Olympic Committee, which oversees all sports in Italy, also dismissed the idea of taking Iran's place."I would feel offended," Buonfiglio said. "You need to deserve to go to the World Cup."Thank you. JFC
>>154335882They will probably do what they did for the club world cup and hold a match for the final spot and get more money from it
>>154342422Of course they'll say that because it's just talk now. If it gets real and Fifa offers them the spot and all the millions that go with it... Besides it's their FA that has to decide, not some Olympic committee bozo.
Italian broadcasters paid over the odds for a World Cup without Italy. Deal agreed before the POs. They'll be over the moon if Italy gets backdoored in and force the Italian FA to accept. If Iran stay home then it comes down to who hands Infantino the biggest brown envelope.
The average pleb isn't ready to know how rigged all sports are
>>154335882>lose to a literal who first humiliation>get offered a spot because a country who qualified is getting bombedsecond humiliation>acceptthird humiliation>lose right afterfourth humiliationIt seems it's Italy's time for (((The Ritual)))
>>154335882But think of the memes if you win
>>154335882There was a small part of me genuinely afraid they would have listened to him. Glad we have some amount of balls left.
>>154342655If FIFA does that we need to form a new international governing body for the sport
>>154342012It’s cheating because they’re changing the rules after everyone already agreed to the rules. Are you retarded?
>>154354925What rules are being changed? If Iran pulls out, then the rules say its within FIFA discretion to appoint a replacement as they see fit. Since you worship rules uncritically, you should be satisfied with whatever is decided.
>>154355017That’s not a rule you lying piece of shit
>>154355287>Regulation 6.7 of the FIFA World Cup 2026 regulations grants FIFA exclusive discretion to handle the withdrawal or exclusion of any participating member association. The regulation states that if a team withdraws or is excluded, FIFA "shall decide on the matter at its sole discretion and take whatever action is deemed necessary."
