Whilst we hope against hope that Luis Rubiales will do the right thing – which is to resign and never be involved with football in any way, especially women’s football – we continue to demand accountability from all concerned. Both FIFA and the Spanish football federation have opened investigations, and FIFA have suspended Rubiales pending the results of their investigation. Meanwhile, 81 Spanish players, including all 23 on Spain’s squad that won the 2023 Women’s World Cup, have said that they will not don Spain’s colours again whilst Rubiales is in charge.

Would the GoobNet Organised Federation for Football Spanning International Divisions of Earth have prevented this from happening? Would it have been able to take more drastic action than FIFA and the Spanish federation? The answer is probably “no, of course not, because it is a poorly conceived and rudimentary concept developed in the space of no more than three hours”, but you may review its bylaws and make your own decision.
