    No way Qatar keeps it for 2022, right?? U.S., England, or Australia could easily host it. Stadiums and infrastructure are already place. And thousands of people won't fucking die because of it like in Qatar.

    I don't think so. Russia shouldn't keep it either, but Russians are crazy so I don't think they will be stripped. Qatar on the other hand, they are completely fucked, especially since they can't host it in the summer.

    I don't know. People forget Blatter wanted the U.S., platini voted and wanted Qatar and won, and he could very likely be the next president

    Regardless, who becomes the next president will be pretty telling. Curious to see if things actually change or if it is more of the same nonsense

    Me thinks major sponsors had to have stepped forward and threatened to drop FIFA, and that is why he stepped down. Coke and Visa were probably waiting to see how the elections turned out and then dropped the hammer on Monday.

    That's another reason Qatar is in trouble. Coke and Visa don't want to be associated with thousands of dead people and slave labor ... even though most of the sponsors infrastructure probably involves modern day slave labor in some form.

    As much as I wish this were true, it will never happen. There are too many anti-England nuts with influence in Fifa, even after the Nut-in-Chief is removed.

    So Blatter may not be going anywhere?
