So let's make it clear for those kids.

The qualifying group is so weak that the best country in the group are countries like saudia arabia, china, and costa rica. Any European side can beat these, save Luxumburg and San Marino.

It never used to be like this. But since it has become political and finacial, these qualification groups have produced these "qualifiers"

It cannot be purely financial as the viewing audience for Holland V Czech is always going to be more than these lesser football nations.

Yes they get pulled out of a bag, but who controls what nations go into the bag? If it was not so do you think they would be holding the Worl Cup in Japan & Korea?

Is it getting clearer to the younger members of the board?
