Cameroon deducted 6 World Cup Points

Breaking News on the BBC Sport Website:

Cameroon have been deducted 6 World Cup points for wearing all-in-one kit at the African Nations Cup.

Apparently, you can only wear kit that separates as shirts and shorts and represents 'a serious breach of FIFA rules..!!!'

Christ, FIFA are bored at the moment aren't they?

I thought he was a swiss roll

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

[Seagull73]

yeh i think he's swiss too

Whatever, the guy is power hungry in a scary way, and he is trying to have too much influence over the English game as well. Thankfully, for all his faults, Mark Palios is no push-over, and we need to fight this lunatic off.....

Fifa hits Cameroon hopes

Seems a bit harsh, but during the Africa Cup of Nations they were told to change their kit for the quarter finals by FIFA and they ignored the order. So they did kind of bring it on themselves. Still 6 points seems terribly harsh. I think a simple fine would have been plenty.

 

[Gullet]

Seems very petty to me. It's not as if they wanted to play in SKINS.

 

[ManxSeagull]

They did get fined as well. Cannot remember the amount though !!

Decision is pathetic !!!

I'm probably being dense here but how do you get that kit on. Is there a zip or something?

Yes - across the shoulder

 

[Jason Speaks]

Oh right. that makes sense now.

If they caught on I guess it would mark the end of swapping shirts at the end of an international.
