    It was Colombia who had to cancel holding it because they couldn't meet FIFA's requirements not Brazil.

    Had a close escape last night entering the Bin Ali stadium for England v Wales. You have to get through airport security style checks. So my bag went through in the tray and at the other end the police and stewards looked concerned. On unzipping my bag the first thing that was staring us in the...

    South Korea v Ghana - Mon 28th Nov, 13:00 | Group E | World Cup 2022

    Thoroughly enjoyable match and the South Koreans were noisy all game and at the far end from me the Ghanaians were in loud party mode. This game gave me some concerns on a safety level afterwards. Out of the 8 games and 5 stadiums I've visited this one Education City struggled to cope with the...

    South Korea v Ghana - Mon 28th Nov, 13:00 | Group E | World Cup 2022

    Well done MCFC1993 you've put a lot of time and effort Into these world cup threads good on you. On my way to this via a KFC at the nearby Mall of Qatar. One of the easier tickets to get maybe because Anthony Taylor is reffing (only joking). My lad is a ref and thinks he's currently our 2nd best...

    Tunisia v Australia - Sat 26th Nov, 10:00 | Group D | World Cup 2022

    Had a good time today being at this one. Atmosphere and passion in spades and although nothing got too out of hand the potential for it to boil over outside was very much nipped in the bud by the law.

    Croatia v Canada - Sun 27th Nov, 16:00 | Group E | World Cup 2022

    Will be going to this and I attended the Canada v Belgium game and was very impressed with the way they played a pleasure to watch. Glad I get to attend all Canada's group games. They look like they have a good English manager who knows what he's doing.

    Tunisia v Australia - Sat 26th Nov, 10:00 | Group D | World Cup 2022

    Just back from USA game, was on front row right behind the unused net. Off to this game at Al Janoub and it's lovely stadium because it's sky blue everywhere inside and out. Was in Al Janoub the other night when Mbappe starred for France. Look for someone on the front row with Oil Club t-shirt on.

    Originally up until last month we were told we needed the Etheraz app as we would have to do a covid test prior to entering Qatar, however the said test and proof of negativity was dropped so no need for Etheraz app. The Hayaa card is mandatory and without it you aren't allowed in the country...

    It was a mental 2 weeks spent in Sardinia, it was like the ride we've had with City so many ups and definitely downs all crammed into a fortnight and I don't mean just the football. Then we moved on to Rimini for the David Platt Bologna game against Belgium. Rose and Crown Rimini enough said....
