    The World Cup Finals; in Qatar? What a terrible idea. Does FIFA have no shame? The list of corruption scandals in FIFA is as long as your arm; and they’re the ones that have come to light.

    The Qatari finals will have to be moved to winter time, causing massive disruption to the European football schedules, on account of the 50 degree heat in the Qatari summer. Didn’t they think of this before they voted for them?

    I really don’t think there is any point countries like England, Germany, Australia, The Netherlands etc, making bids in the future, as without bribes and corruption a bidding country has no chance of winning.
