[QUOTE="Cruz_del_Sur, post: 1097396, member: 55747"] Which for every practical purpose resulted in them being unable to play the world cup. It's amazing the double standard i read here. 'This was 2 centuries ago, let it slide' when it comes to Italy, but no one cries 'jesus, spain would have won that game with their third side regardless'. They could have fielded you and me and the result would have been the same. But that is not the point. Spain ****** up and the punishment was severe. Period. You forbid Italy from playing 2023 world cup, at least. You show the world that eligibility is to be taken seriously and there are consequences for those who disregard, fail to control/uphold or violate those rules. Not true. Unions are virtually everlasting and they ****** up too. Punish the union. See how that raises the standard of the checks and balances they keep regarding the eligibility of their players. [/QUOTE]
