Player Valuation: £50m
How the hell have they won that bid?

Worst World Cup ever on its way. 50 degrees heat. I'll look forward to that then.

Oh and good luck buying a drink there.

It's like the city the size of Liverpool hosting it. Just nuts.
 

I'm sure their bid was impressive, but does FIFA want to give the worlds game ,which has been against intolerence, really want to give it to a country where Homosexuality is illegal? Hardly in the spirit of the game imo.
 

95% of Qatar is a desert. There are 1.7 million people living there. What exactly is the purpose of holding the tournamnet in Qatar?
 
Love it, from a canadian hockey blogger: DownGoesBrown Here's everything I know about Qatar as a soccer nation: They were the only team I could ever beat with Canada in FIFA '96.

I wanted it to be Korea or Japan, but I knew it was still too close to 2002, so I was really rooting for an American win. It would have been amazing in the US. A proper festival for all.

Jesus wept.

There is not a drop of water either. Who the hell is going to fly out there for the atmosphere in a place where you are sweating your balls off every minute of the day and can't get a beer.

I wonder if they are going to aircon the (outdoor) big screens they need to set up? :/

How much money have FIFA trousered from this?
 
They've never even played in a World Cup before.

Also I can't say I'm keen on supporting a country which outlaws homosexuality.

It's nothing but a cash drive for Fifa. Qatar are not going to have a thriving football nation following this World Cup. It's in the desert for christ sake.

It's just embarassing that these have got it. I would have thought Australia would have been perfect.
 
When is a World Cup, not a World cup....it's like the X factor or something....Arrive by water Taxi...? People just wanna see a ball get kicked don't they? I have a feeling if I start saving now....I may just afford a group stage game.....it's not about me though I guess
