Just for optics surely? Nothing will come from this
WWC23 | England v Spain - Spain win the World Cup - and Rubiales gets sacked
- Thread starter jojojo
- Start date
Could you please use a bigger font, can barely see your post.
yeah this was more in your face than the actual kiss.
Laporta on the possible CL ban: "Cons: No more CL evenings and money. Pros: No more CL disgraces"
Mum gone on hunger strike and locked herself in a church. Spanish FA writing to UEFA asking to be banned. feck me this story is so ridiculous
Can't wait for the Netflix series about thisMum gone on hunger strike and locked herself in a church. Spanish FA writing to UEFA asking to be banned. feck me this story is so ridiculous
If someone had written this script they would've been laughed off the room.
Id cast Johnny SinsMark Strong to play Rubiales.
But no Real to slow down City
Yeah they slowed them down well last season, more of that needed
I 've seen Mexican soap opera's with less drama than this.
This two events are beyond parody
The bald one kissing ladiesI have no idea who that is
cant keep up with this soap opera anymore
did we ever establish if those photos of Hermoso lifting Rubiales were doctored or not?

Haha yeah, I was too lazy to adjust it. Took it straight from the BBC.
What a silly women, his mum that is. If she’s waiting for god to intervene then she’ll be waiting a very long time.
No but there's footage of it now. Marca are saying he's throwing himself up as opposed to her picking him up, but it doesn't really matter. The fact that Rubiales camp are latching on to that part in attempt to discredit her is just a distraction from the kiss. None of what preceded it gave him permission to do that.

Is this supposed to be funny? Because it's not
The Spanish FA bit is even more ridiculous cause it's all to protect a single dude. No Spanish sides to play international football just to protect a single guy no-one outside the FA's executive cadre seems to like. It's beyond ridiculous really - how important can any single person think they are?Mum gone on hunger strike and locked herself in a church.

I agree - it's all a sideshow but just interesting as some were accusing of doctored images etc which seems not to be the case
Imagine being Bellingham or whoever, moving to Madrid in order to win the champions league only to find out your entire league has abandoned Europe all cos some feckless suit you've never met doesn't understand consent
Could imagine there would be more lawsuits!
And maybe it would push more men's teams/players to take a stand
Here's a story from about 12 months ago about Rubiales using Spanish football federation money to host orgies with "young girls". The source is his uncle.

He must have serious dirt on people in the Spanish FA, this is mental!
He must have dirt on them. To me that is the only explanation that makes any sense.
You are not wrong!
It is on the way between Malaga and Granada, but that’s about all there is to say about it.
If it's on ITV, Sheridan Smith to play all the Spanish footballers.Mark Strong to play Rubiales.
That seems unfair, tripadvisor says the 2nd top attraction there is the pre-industrial museum of the sugar cane. And a random vineyard is #1You are not wrong!

I dunno, I think it's more about not bending to a mob calling for someones head, whoever that someone is.
That's your reading of this whole fiasco?
Amazing
Not the whole fiasco, just on why they are defending him now.
And the standard keeps on falling.
I thought I was bad!
You don't know what my views are on the whole situation. We probably agree more than we disagree. Silly of you to make a post like that without knowing what my view is on the whole situation.
You are.
Lads, feel free to engage me in a discussion rather than make silly posts like these. Sounds like you've already made up your minds though.
Good luck on the next 11 years of being a Newbie.
As far as I recall they've been covering for him from the start. It was them who put out the statement that the player said were not her words. They're going way beyond defending him as well. They're threatening to sue her knowing that they have way more money than her and could cost her a fortune in the courts.
Have I missed something where they didn't defend him? It must have been quite short lived.
