English & USA are SOL.

I really hope this Qatar thing blows up in FIFA's faces. I guess they all got rich this week. Oil rules all.

    Yup load of bollocks.

    England will never host anything as long as Sepp Blatter is around.

    Putin doesn't bother to go to the announcement because he knows it's in the bag.
    Plenty of Russian corrupt money to pass around.

    Qatar gets 2022. A country that doesn't know a football from a camel's bollocks.

    The sooner Blatter goes the better, corrupt fucker!

    Russia I can see, but with Qatar, the last thing I would want to do is run around on a field for 90+ minutes when its 100 degrees or more outside in the summer.

    What are they gonna do when the next oil bust happens. They'll be fucking broke, just like UAE is now. I can't wait to see it happen. Then the idiots at FIFA will be scrounging for someone else to save their corrupt asses.

    As far as Russia, well, they were gonna get one at some point, right?

    Another question, I'm not sure as I'm not up to date in Islamic law, is alcohol even allowed to be served in Qatar?

    They probably still have to sort that out. If USA won, there was a texting campaign to have games in Philly (we didn't get any in '94 since we only had the shitty Vet to have them in). All for naught.

    Leatherman: don't mistake our bitterness for 2018 - it makes perfect sense for Russia to host a World Cup. But Qatar is just asinine.

    Sorry guys for your 2022 bid, but you had WC not so long ago.. but Qatar seems strange for me too.. Oz would be better

    Our host cities would be Moscow, St. Peter., Kazan, Yaroslavl, Sochi, Kaliningrad, Rostov, Yekatirenburg, Nizhny Novgorod, Saransk, Samara.. all of them are situated in the european part of the country

    Some Qatar facts:

    Population; 1,696,563
    3 New stadiums are to be built for the competition and then they will DISMANTLE the upper tiers of the stadiums and then and donate them to 'developing' countries :lol:

    Average day time high temperature is 40C :shock:

    I don't think it would have a difference to be honest. I think it was already decided by then. We've had some shitty media coverage that hasn't helped, the whole Lord whatshisface and that panorama thing. English media sucks donkey balls and I blame it on them :evil:
