ooh congrats, you win the right to have hundreds of dunken men coming and piddling up against your houses, chanting things that all sound like a pair of work boots going round a washing machine (the words all merge in together tbh it all sounds like wuuuuuuuuuuu waaaaaaaay wooooooooh) and either telling people they love them they're their bessss mates they are or they 'ate em and they're gonna rip their eyes out, basssars!!

I bet you are really looking forward to that :D

What possible reason is there for the world cup going to Qatar other than money?

yeah but like 55C over there- thats seriously hot

(remember how warm 30C is over here - well, almost double that)

(damn, I wish it was 30 over here now, rather than -9)

So tierk, is football big in Qatar?


You would be hard pushed to find anywhere nowadays that football isnt big. Sports are not hugely popular here but we do love to put on a show and one thing i know for sure people will be entertained when the time comes.

We were also at a cross roads in terms of the development plans for the country and this will seriously speed up development of Brand Qatar.

I clocked 63 degrees this summer gone (54 in the shade) :D All the staduims will be cooled. If they can build a ski slop in the UAE i am sure we can fix the heating problems.

That will go down well over there :cheers:


Its part of the bid that they will be opening up on this issue amongest others.

It will also bring the human rights issues to the forefront as the country will be under the microscope.

I will also be sure to have seats at the Final and not some shitty seats in the nose bleed section either - if, i might add, if i am alive.

Anyway i am off out, time to celebrate!! :D

TBH I think anyone would be able to host a better tournament than England. The Olympics will be a laughing stock & a national embarassment. England is the home of football hooliganism...could you imagine the world's football community turning up here, with happy international world supporters coming here for pre-match drinks to get their heads kicked in by drunken Arsenal / West Ham / Millwall fans.

I reckon it's the Olympic goons that screwed our chances - FIFA looked at our 2012 twatty pink logo and thought "Fook that - we're not putting our brand name to those tasteless tosspots."

Fair play on Qatar - I'm sure if you figured out all the games, the entire population of Qatar could be fit into the stadiums!!

Arsenal fans? you having a laugh, we're too busy sat in our living rooms to be hooligans. English hooliganism is far better than most other nations tbh, england's cleaned it's act up soo much after getting chucked outta european cups. Looks at the polish leagues ffs.

Its going to be a piss poor World Cup there, not because of infrastructure problems or the host countries ability to host it (pay attention Russia) but because you can not play football in temperatures over 40c. The games will all be very slow, boring affairs which will do nothing for the supporters watching and the sponsors paying.

They will most likely build large indoor arenas that are cooled down, hopefully with corner posts made out of gold, Qatar style :p

You seem to have no grasp on the reality of English football, do you work at FIFA?

I really couldn't give a flying fuck if we get the world cup or not,
seriously guys, we have finally resigned ourselves that we won't win in this century, so some balloonheads got a bit excited about just hosting it and then were reminded by a short sharp slap of reality that that wasn't going to happen either.

We got one vote..one freakin vote and probably just someone made a mistake.

We got two votes, but don't let that stop your rant.
