2022 World Cup Discussion

[lust overlord]

My feelings exactly. Usually the season is gone, no footie for weeks so look forward to the WC. I'm getting zero feeling for this bollocks.

FIFA eh, fucking bellends

All the money they earn and they fuck it up.

Yeah I'm the same too.

I'm hoping once the matches start,my interest level will increase enough to actually watch the matches.

Right now,if my missus wanted to watch a shitty soap opera which clashed with a big game,I'd let her watch it on the big telly ;)

Landed at 6am Qatar time ( 3am English time). Doha Airport had me thinking of the Mike Bassett film with every nation represented but minus the scenes. Many more Welsh than English on my Manchester flight but dozen or so from Equador,Canadians and yanks. Off England iran tomorrow followed by USA v
Wales as only 8 miles separates the stadia. Got a game a day France v Australia on Tuesday may see my Haaland or Oil club t-shirt donned in the ground.

There’s a follow up to my warning link about the Apps you might/will have to install on your phones to get into Qatar:

Germany says nein to Qatari World Cup spyware, err, apps

Norway, France also sound data privacy alarms

www.theregister.com

Germany, France and Norway all warning of serious privacy invasive ‘features’.

Advice: take a burner phone

Edit: I’d be very interested to know from the BMers who have gone, whether they’ve had to install the apps or not?

Why would Norway be warning of anything? They'd have to qualify first.

We have a WC in November, in a medieval country with no stadiums what could possibly be wrong with that ?

It's not in Oz is it. ;)

 

[SWP's back]

Wouldn't surprise me if there are a few players who are and feel uncomfortable going. "Injured" covers that base.

It would absolutely massively astound me if any gay players feigned injury to avoid going.

 

[urban genie]

Injured or criminal record?

they say injured but as he has form for sex tapes, nocing about with ribery and being a bit of a genral bellend maybe he is better off at home

I think Bill is confusing the cricket T20 World Cup finals:-)
