it’s just wrong - it’s a corrupt World Cup purchased with dirty Money. Pretty distasteful.

It doesn't make someone an asshole for attending the games though. Some perspective needed.

Same amount of compassion you have shown to people who have actually died building the stadiums tbf

Don't be a dick. I don't agree with the World Cup being in Qatar, but no need to have a go at those wanting to follow their country - particularly with what CJ is going through at the moment. Do you show the same disdain for people going on holiday to Dubai? To other countries with pure human rights records? Do you have a list of what/where is allowable and what/where isn't that we can all refer to?

Yeah I agree. Digs at CJ are a little harsh. The World Cup should never have been awarded to Qatar, but is that CJs fault?

No it isn't but somebody who rails against the likes of SISU being involved in football should not really embrace this farce IMHO

Let’s be honest, ethical challenges are everywhere when it comes to spending your hard earned. Apple, Samsung and Nike have all been accused of abhorrent practices…and to be fair the list of other companies is huge.

At the end of the day it’s up to individuals to educate themselves and make the choices they feel comfortable with.

Go back to when Russia and Qatar were awarded the tournaments. The only two bids who the FIFA inspection teams had concerns about were the successful ones. England got turned down on the basis of ‘not enough high speed rail infrastructure’ while Russia with its enormous geography and bigoted laws were waved through. Likewise Qatar where there is no football appetite, more bigoted laws and the small matter of no ability to play in the summer. The stadia that people have died to build will be dismantled after the final. Australia had bid for this too but were told the TV companies wouldn’t like it.

People going to these tournaments aren’t bad people but they are naive if they think it’s still about the beautiful game. As for CJ-let he who is without sin cast the first stone. I know I can’t

Some on here need to have a word with themselves. If someone thinks someone has behaved badly and has evidence, fair enough, but having a go at someone for going to a football match? Next we'll be checking where people have bought their clothes from when attending the CBS, in case a sweat shop was involved, then outing people who paid to go corporate, as they could have sat in the cheap seats and diverted the extra money to the homeless. People in glass houses and all that.

Knowingly financially supporting a country where people have died building the stadiums and same sex couples arent allowed to book a hotel room together doesn't make you a good person unfortunately
that whole comment can be levelled at anyone with a petrol/diesel car. The economy is propped up by oil sales far more than a football tournament

I miss Kalns and his Twitter again - are he and James Alexander still regulars on Twitter? And that guy something west?

Most of those accounts have been shut down I think James (Ginetta) is still at it

Some shocking stuff on here…. For commenting on a forum peoples life’s could have been fooked up. 😳😳🤷🏻
I’m also getting the feeling that £2 membership isn’t particularly good value.

Yes “do the really want to know you murdered your wife in the bath while drunk” - there was some ridiculous threat they’d tell my boss and to be fair they’d actually found his name.

Considering the bloke had met my wife on several occasions when I gave one of them his mobile number they just didn’t get it. 😂

The most frightening thing about opening that thread was seeing the Binley Mega Chippy picture on two photos down. Can't fucking get away from it.

That is a massive false equivalence. We can’t control where products that we need for daily life come from. We can however chose whether or not to visit these countries and directly hand over money to the regime.

Yes it’s like when Tony said I was worse than Italia as I worked for a company that sponsored wasps whilst Italia was running an approved car park for them

“Give us 5 minutes love just got to finish up the edit for my website”

The trust was dead the minute fletcher took over

@Grendel you were going to run for leader at one point, no?

Well given all of the above I decided it wasn’t a great idea a certain board member once PMd me and said they’d meet me outside so I’d be safe!

Also that website rips the shit out of the team and players too.

Can tell not made by fans just bad actors.

Not really. There’s the choice to use public transport, or buy an electric vehicle.

CJs financial input in Qatar will be minuscule compared to any other funding they receive. Russias LGBT laws are shocking but there was no calls for people being subhuman for going there.

the only people who are to blame for this are FIFA, and the moral duty is on them. Not the people going out to support their team

Potential defamation here - it’s Rochdale not Rotherham and took some time to confirm identity


Was it the only authority to have had grooming gangs that went flushed out?

Thing is it hasnt gone away still going on.

Nah, he knew what was going on and did nothing about it so he's as complict as the guys who did it and then tried to defend them (and still does) got no time for that

Not questioning his committment to the club just stating the fact he has the morals of a sewer rat
So you know him personally do you?
Well I do and you are talking utter shit.
No wonder you have the name Monkey you clown.

Personally I think we need full details and names of those on the Trust board that did these shocking acts to fellow sky blue fans and their careers. It is disgusting and they must be called out to make sure they never get involved with the club or supporters ever again, including anyone on the board who encouraged or turned a blind eye to it. Sorry CJ you come across as a top fella but you or someone else who can be trusted need at some point to put in black and white what happened and who was responsible. Their behaviour teetered on the brink of criminality and needs to be called out.

You’ve seen on this thread already “we’ve been through this”, “I’ve answered your questions”, “I have other things going on”.

They will do anything other than admit to it and apologise.

Yes I have but that's very sad if the key individuals do not provide information, £ still feel establishing a list of the SBT 'wrong uns' is vital to the club and its supporters moving forward.

Amazing that most of the talk here has been about the merits of the Qatar World Cup and not what the trust were up to. Amazing what people will do to deflect from their mates.
It's old news must be 10 differant threads on here about it, as for Qatar who even cares another corrupt decision made by the world that is football.
