2022 World Cup... gonna ruin the European Season

Gianni Infantino, the king of moral and human rights, ask for a truce during the world cup.

Yeah, and I ask FIFA to actually take a stand for human rights and to not be corrupt during the world cup.

Both are equally unlikely.

I'm sure we've all learnt from this experience and will take forward the knowledge we have gained from the event, now let's move on. (For fudgesake let it go and let me count my money)

Hahah "we all know the oppression of homosexuality is wrong but can we put that to one side so we can enjoy the World Cup, oh and if we can overlook the appalling human right conditions for workers too, it should make for a great carnival of sport"

It beggars belief. How often do you hear that football wants to be inclusive and that it's such a shame that no high profile gay players have come out when they are still playing. Yep, football is as much for gay people as anyone else.

So let's go and host our showpiece competition in a country where you can be put to death for just being gay.

It's absolutely mind boggling and utterly immoral. And that's before we even start on the corrupt way they got the tournament, the way women are treated and the amount of immigrant workers who were sacrificed at the alter of this grotesque event.

fudge off FIFA, you can keep it.
 
I know we are all different and enjoy varying experiences but being surrounds by football fans for more than 5 or 6 hours is my idea of hell and to base a holiday around it would make me suicidal.

as a man who likes a drink, there is nothing more hateful than large groups of drunk men singing
 
Looks safe.... No chance of anyone breaking in and steal peoples belongings there. Or worse, assaulting people in there. What a joke! I've heard they're close to €200 a night too!

But it's a country where anyone caught stealing still gets their hands cut off, so that's why there's no need for locks (or solid walls).
 
Beer could be banned from all eight World Cup stadiums in potential U-turn
  • Alcohol due to be available immediately outside match venues
  • Budweiser told to relocate stalls to less prominent locations
With just days to go until the World Cup begins, the Qatari hosts are reportedly pressuring Fifa to stop the sale of beer at the eight tournament stadiums in what would be an astonishing U-turn.

The sale of alcohol is strictly controlled in Qatar, but it is due to be available in the area immediately outside match venues and fan zones, as well as within hotels.

Budweiser is one of Fifa’s biggest sponsors but was told on Saturday to relocate stalls selling its product at stadiums to less prominent locations.

The Times reports that Qatar 2022 now wants to go even further and that discussions are ongoing between Fifa and Budweiser. A decision is expected on Friday but it is believed beer could be banned from all stadiums.

Budweiser remains one of Fifa’s key partners and if it is denied the opportunity to sell beer or to have any visibility at the World Cup matches, then football’s governing body would be in breach of a multi-million dollar contract.

Fifa and the Budweiser owner AB InBev have been approached for comment.

In response to the request to move its outlets, AB InBev told Sky News: “AB InBev was informed on 12 November and are working with Fifa to relocate the concession outlets to locations as directed. We are working with Fifa to bring the best possible experience to the fans. Our focus is on delivering the best possible consumer experience under the new circumstances.”

If the beer ban goes ahead, the only place supporters will be able to drink alcohol will be at a designated fan park, where Budweiser has already revealed a 500ml drink will cost fans the pretty price of £11.60.

A few hotel bars will typically charge around £12-£15 for a beer or glass of wine.
