Rob W 0 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Average temps in Qatar during the WC are between 36-40c an entire world cup on indoor pitches tbh with fake grass it's a joke there's not even 1 single player thats any good from the place, have they even ever qualified for any world cup? FIFA must be the most corrupt sporting organisation bar none. The very fact the head of it is swiss (where no one cares and theyre shit) and then the vice-president (?) warner is from trinidad and tobago or something is an utter disgrace letting fuck ups from shit countries have this much power over our game. lets take away our ball and play Scotland, N Ireland, Wales and Ireland eh?

bawan 0 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 So basicaly if FIFA want development, the only way to get the WC now would be to demolish our stadiums and say we will build these for the WC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Whey aye! That'll be good for the planet They claim they can make it a carbon neutral tournament iirc. That aside though, it's a gash place to have it. As is Russia. I'm not even that bothered about losing, it's losing to that bid which annoys me.

Guest alex Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 At least Qatar and Russia will have 14 nice new stadiums that will in no way be left deserted once the WC is over That's the daft thing about the legacy argument like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 10855 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 The only thing cheering me up is watching the media and those being interviewed squirm and remain stoic, when really they want to grab the mic, look down the camera and scream bloody murder about the utterly ingrained corruption.

Kid Dynamite 7025 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 You dont see anything wrong in giving a multi billion pound tournament to one of the most corrupt countrys in the world?

Zathras 244 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Money talks. More effective than money is the Qatar's bid promise to dismantle the stadiums after the cup and reassemble them in "poor countries." So when in 2023 we see where they go, we can figure out how the votes were cast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest WDP Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 I look forward to seeing zenit fans in the crowds There's clips of youtube of foreign immigrants being beaten up by gangs of big 6ft4 racist twats, for the crime of being there. Renton had it right Russians are cold, calculating, soulless twats. Ivan Drago was the classic Russian. If I sound bitter I am, it's an absolute disgrace, it's like having Halle Berry (being us) in a line with Fizz, Sonya Jackson and Big Mo, and Big Mo won. It's too much to take, I can't take in justices in life it's the one thing that drives me up the wall, I'm bitter and I haven't got it in me to say well done Russia, because this is corruption at the highest level, the UN should investigate but they're corrupt twats too, the Putin change of heart to go says a hell of a lot. A country of 160m, the second super power of the world changing his plans in 18 hours. This is the worst thing I've ever seen in sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
