What the guy said about carbon neutrality was spot on. This World Cup is only carbon neutral because Qatar are offsetting their production of carbon emissions. Offsetting is basically kicking the can down the road and doesn't work in real terms.

And offsetting has been proved in some cases to be a pile of crap - some of the companies behind offsetting have been found to be lacking in delivering on what has been promised. We should be concentrating on reducing carbon, not offsetting.

That's exactly what will happen with Qatar, which is what the bloke on the BBC was alluding to.

Qatar is a terrible place to hold a World Cup, wrong time of year, not a footballing country, just wrong but money talks. You can get a beer in the stadium, if you have the money and go corporate, hypocrisy.

Meanwhile back in the BBC PL coverage…

18 stories highlighted

United:9
Liverpool:3
Chelsea (Cahill retires):1
Wolves (lopetegu) :1
Brentford (tovey betting):1
General: 3

I can only presume united are top of the league, Liverpool 2nd…

It just seems the BBC are recruiting more hatred in this country towards the Middle East.
It will probably be at boiling point just in time for the Premier league restart with City and Newcastle being in the line of fire from media and fans alike.

That's the method in their madness. Set the anti Arab agenda then push it and work it for it is worth. By the end of the tournament anything remotely Arab / Muslim is bad. Therefore ourselves and Newcastle are bad and demonised by the average numbskull 'football fan'. We can win all we like on the pitch but the BBC and the MSM are making damn sure we don't win off the pitch - and doing a pretty good job at it if we are honest.

Marcus had to be mentioned.

Taken from the BBC Webpage after the final whistle..........notice the omission.

1. RESULT: England 6-2 Iran - Jude Bellingham, Bukayo Saka (2), Raheem Sterling and substitute Marcus Rashford put England in control.
2. Iran reduce deficit in second half before being awarded penalty by VAR
3. Iran keeper Beiranvand taken off after head injury in first half

It's so obvious the redtops are in control at our national broadcaster.

The World Cup reporting is hysterical. Good time for the Government. Keep the cost of living and the economical collapse out of the headlines. Instead let’s all argue over beer!

football should have nothing to do with politics.

The narrative and agenda is set. Now we all have to listen and watch it play out.

Main point is that Qatar should not have had a World Cup. Similarly, Mansour should not have purchased City. Proceed now to finding any negative angle and ram it down peoples throats until it becomes media law. It’s all going to be ok though as America has it next. The greatest human rights country the world has ever seen.

History is littered with unspeakable inhuman acts. Today is no different. Russian is a perfect example of this. It will never end. We have all been conditioned to think and act in a certain way depending on the country we were born into. The script is set. Nothing more than a different form of religion. #Brainwashing

Our media tell us that Russians are being brainwashed by state controlled media there. Unfortunately it has crept into our own media. I think there are many who have not noticed it. The real power in this country lies with the media moguls not the politicians.

I noticed there was no mention of Grealish on their homepage after the match.

Least they tweeted about his celebration.

Doesn’t sell clicks I’m afraid, especially when there’s a boycott of our club.
