The Norwegian Football Federation (NFF) says it has submitted a three-part ethics complaint to FIFA regarding “political neutrality in international football”. The complaint centres on the awarding of the FIFA Peace Prize to U.S. President Donald Trump, the Folarin Balogun case and the scrapped plan to sell stakes in the World Cup to private investors, questioning whether FIFA President Gianni Infantino “abused” his position. 📝 @AliRampling nytimes.com/athletic/7665129…

And what better way to demonstrate this than posting 2 pictures of the same male football official ?
Women belong in football – in all areas of the game – all around the world 🙌

Away fans belong in football. Collective bans cannot be the default response to safety & security concerns. Today, FSE, @UEFA, @EFC_Football, & @EuropeanLeagues unite to limit collective bans against away supporters by endorsing a @coe recommendation. 🔗 ow.ly/YK7z50ZISqI

À chaque projet de reprise, les mêmes âneries publiées sans aucun vérification. 100MEUR pour le FC Nantes, ça n’avait déjà aucun sens en L1 2019. Mais en L2 en 2026… Si les Kita trouvent un repreneur pour 20% de cette somme, ils pourront s’estimer heureux.

Very true, Samuel. Just not for the better.

"Have you betrayed the game of football?" "Why won't you resign?" "Fans & @FIFAcom associations want you to step down" Infantino stands there joking. We're serious. 🗣️✍️ Add your voice to make it loud and clear it's time for him to go: change.org/infantino-out-now #InfantinOUT
'I'll see you at the hairdressers' @jamesmatthewsky tracks down the FIFA president in the Dominican Republic - and asks him whether he thinks he has betrayed the game of football. trib.al/k9xJLsy

For the Iranian fans whose rights were ignored in 2026 World Cup, and for the women fans who still do not have full access to stadiums in Iran. It’s time for change at #FIFA. Join the call and ask Infantino to resign from the dictatorship they have built. change.org/p/global-petition…

The man who is wrong about everything naturally supports Gianni Infantino.

Reprise catastrophique de la com de la FIFA. L’organisation ne vole au secours de personne, elle est complètement à l’arrêt. "Le président de la FIFA ordonne à son administration la publication d’un communiqué de soutien rédigé par ses soins."

Gianni Infantino is a man on a mission: destroying world football, one competition at a time. #InfantinOUT
Exclusive - Infantino and FIFA were so deep into breakaway plans in late 2020 that the name “FIFA Super League” was discussed. Member assocs also to be sidelined with international calendar slashed. FIFA eventually stepped back from doomed scheme late on: theguardian.com/football/202…

Tout doit disparaître
Statement attributable to the FIFA President The FIFA Forward Enterprise project was intended to provide a basis for further strengthening our FIFA Member Associations and our sport worldwide, especially in those countries where support is most needed. And more so, as we said from the outset, to do this only if a majority of the FIFA Member Associations were in support and always subject to a consultation process with them, the FIFA Council, the Confederations and wider stakeholders. Having listened carefully to all the views, it has become clear that the project has created divisions of a nature that, regardless of the level of support, are no longer in the interest of the objective set out in the first place. Our purpose has always been - and will always be - to unite and improve. As a result, this proposal will not proceed. Moving forward, my intent is to bring all interested parties back together in the coming days and weeks in the spirit of shared interest in our game, and with the objective to continue growing football everywhere, particularly in those countries that mostly need our support.

The World Cup sell off plans might be gone, but the problem remains. The writing has been on the wall for long enough. This man is not fit to govern world football. Infantino has to go. #InfantinOUT

This summer reminded us why the World Cup matters. It belongs to the supporters, players, volunteers, member associations, and communities that have built it over generations—not to outside investors seeking financial returns.

Ah ok, so it was just a big misunderstanding. So unfair to the "open and democratic" @FIFAcom.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
CONCACAF, AFC and UEFA state they learned of the FFE proposal through media reports with no prior consultation from FIFA. reuters.com/sports/soccer/… en.as.com/soccer/world-c…
