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.

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.
