Russia! If only we had known they were looking for an oil rich yet poor country, an arctic wasteland with a useless transport system, a huge percentage of alcoholism and suicide in their population, institutional racism and a ramshackle infrastructure ripe for development and regeneration for the World Cup.

We could've put in a joint bid with Scotland.

It'll be interesting to see how the above competition goes in January, as it's being held in Qatar.
I checked out the stadiums on google route planner, and all of the 5 stadiums are within 20 km of each other, with the first and last stadium listed being only 5.3 km apart.
Bizzare how money talks.
What's even more surprising is "2007 AFC Asian Cup finals were held from July 7 to July 29, 2007. For the first time in its history, the competition was co-hosted by four nations: Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam." Each country being far larger than Qatar.

The only time I want to see Blatters face again, is through cross-hairs.
FIFA are rotten to the core.

Blatter reminds me of Sulliman, corrupt as they come.

Everyone hates England and sending a royal and an Etonian prime minister and Lord Coe, pure establishment which Becks is becoming part of would not have helped one bit.
