European nations have unanimously agreed to boycott all Fifa competitions until football’s global governing body drops plans to sell off stakes in the World Cup.

In an emergency meeting on Thursday, Uefa member associations voted 55-0 to boycott.

      I swear a good number of American sports fans don’t actually like their sports. Everything I hear that’s “good” about the Super Bowl is external and not the actual game

        There are 330 million Americans, which ones are you referring to? Because it really depends on the region a lot of the time.

        Were the ones you were referring to Americans living in the same city / state of said superbowl team? Or did you just make that up based on some comments you read online?

        Baseball fans are pretty ride or die. I think it’s the necessary induction into the sport due to the arcane nature of it, similar to cricket fans.

                It’s okay, not everyone can get into a sport beyond just watching it casually. 😉 When you live and breathe the sport, you’ll understand lol.

                    I was just playing along in good fun, but that is legitimately twat behavior, dude lol.

      Yeah we do it in Australia as well and it’s generally b grade entertainment.

      We’re actually truly embarrassing at it.
