Shame on FIFA, shame on AFC!

[GolfePersique]

We have been subjected to years and years of repeated discrimination and maltreatment by the so called Asian Football Confederation. Today we witnessed the masterpiece of the AFC intervening in full force to stop our progress. I wouldn't be surprised to see worse in the second round.

How long should this carry on?
Why is our Federation so static?

I strongly believe we should leave this corrupt confederation. I'd rather Team Melli Play in Eurpope and steadily grow over a decade or two (we have the potential) than battling for a bloody qualification under barbaric rules of the Arab Confederation.

Call it emotional or irrational, but enough is enough with these bastards.

Gucci offside call!

The shame for this far outweighs what happened today:

I'm wondering how much more have to happen before IFF steps their Shit up!!! this field wasnt even worthy of a friendly between the D teams of Somalia and Gibriltar!!!

What is your complaint?

The pitch or the offside call?

IFF has no power over AFC. The executive committee makes all decisions and we are lacking of people that support our cause.

sadly IFF has no pull in AFC nor FIFA, so probably nothing will come from it, yet they should still lodge a complain to these official for allowing the match to take place in such dangerous conditions, that was a complete bs decision to go on with the game ..!!

Reza seemed marginally offside to me, but i havent seen replays yet...!

we gotta now take maximum points from our home games vs syria and china and squeez out another point from other games to somewhat comfortably clinch direct qualification.

I always promoted EXITING AFC and I will forever. It's all possible now especially with our region's political situations with all Arabd ganging up against us.

Let's promote it,,,

The whole organization!

Pitch/offside are just small examples. There were numerous warning by our coaching staff towards organizers stating that football is not possible under such circumstances (Weather, facilities, etc), yet the stupid Japanese AFC superviser confirmed that there are standard conditions for the match to go ahead. Likewise, Malaysian FA, AFC, etc.

Is there any organization which Iran has any pull? Hell we don't even have any pull in OPEC. Such shame.

If you stop it 0:19 it's obvious offside.
