Removed citation request

[edit]

I've removed the request for a citation on the NF-Board teams that have indicated their desire to take part in the ELF Cup. This is covered in the article cited earlier in the paragraph (and, indeed, that citation was initially placed at the end of the paragraph to cover the whole controversy.

Failure?

[edit]

4 teams in the tournament and 1 of them didn't show up? Pity, wish those 4 teams were in the ELF Cup so we had a bigger event instead of 1 big and 1 really unnotable. 3 team tournament, not really exciting.

It's certainly not the best, but there were mitigating circumstances. I think the NF-Board's refusal to punish Northern Cyprus (though to what extent that punishment would have any effect, I don't know) is admirable. Remember, it was the KTFF and the Northern Cypriot government who made a mess of this, with the running of the ELF Cup. I can understand why Greenland and Tibet took part in the ELF Cup but I'm disappointed they did so, especially as neither have made the semi-finals, while a FIFA-affiliated team have.

If NF-Board chose to punish TRNC, they would've simply quit the federation. Unfortunately, NF-Board hasn't been as effective as it's been hoped to, certainly not anywhere near FIFA. What've they even done for being a transfer point for NF-Board teams going onto FIFA? I doubt a single VIVA World Cup would've worked, simply put teams don't have the resources to show up to a country thousands of miles away. All NF-Board event costs should be met by the organization, teams are just too poor (except some notable exceptions) to handle it. And for a FIFA-affiliated team making it to semi-finals, that just shows that NF-Board football has to get better, does it not? Either way, Crimea defeated a FIFA side to qualify to the semi-finals -- and they're not even in NF-Board! They should definitely sign up, seeing as they're a good team that beat an NF-Board side (Tibet) and a FIFA side (Tajikistan) to qualify.

Any idea of what sort of attendances these matches attracted? Internet news on the event seems very hard to find.

Another question — does anybody know what were the 'visa problems' that the Southern Cameroons team had? Again I can find no info on the web. If it was a case of official discrimination, it might be very relevant to the Southern Cameroons article. Scolaire 22:46, 30 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Micronations

[edit]

This sounds like a Soccer Cup of non-recognised/non-independent countries, proposed countries, and Micronations. It would be a good marketing strategie for them if they just decided to take such rut at all. A lot of people would enjoy watching a Soccer Cup with teams like New Afrika, Palestine and Tibet. Luckily they would even get Scottland and South Brazil on their board. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.24.8.88 (talk) 17:20, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Split?

[edit]

Should this be moved to VIVA World Cup 2006?--Someguyudontknow 21:31, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Moved? No. The article about the competition takes preference over the article about an individual season. But if we can find enough information to give the VIVA World Cup a decent article without all the stuff about 2006, then it should definitely be split, especially since VIVA World Cup 2008 has been announced, as of a month ago or so.

I agree that this artical should be split up as suggested.Moses (talk) 20:54, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The First Competition Match

[edit]

The First Competition Match is noticed twice in the scheme, be it differently. Should be fixed. 88.211.132.72 21:22, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Relationship to the ConIFA World Cup

[edit]

Are the Viva World Cups still taking place? If so, how are they different to the ConIFA World Football Cup? If not, then have they been supplanted? I think the answers to these questions should appear in the article. 2A02:8109:9340:136C:8CB1:CFCD:8297:438A (talk) 00:29, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
