who would've thought that playing the world largest soccer tournament in 115 degree temperatures would be a bad idea?
now we want to move the tournament to the middle of the league season?
Go frick yourself FIFA you corrupt piece of shite politicians.

You would think they would've figured out this could be an issue before awarding them the games. Way to use your brains FIFA

Why doesn't Qatar build their stadiums with retractable roofs?

Really Qatars "revolutionary" idea to have a bunch of air conditioned stadiums turned out to be alot easier said than done. Shocker.

The USA, Russia, China, Germany and Australia should just host everything. South America, Africa, and the Middle East should get their shite together before being allowed to host

it has become pretty clear what FIFA officials priorities are
1) Line pockets
...
20) grow the game

who do FIFA answer to? I mean what repercussions do they have for taking bribes? Losing their position to another scumbag? its not like they would have to pay back bribes. let's all sit and watch the money-go-round

PREDICTION: They will ask Qatar to move it to the winter. Qatar reject it. FIFA moves the WC to a different region.

This is a setup to fix a f'up. trust me.

Qatar doesn't give a shite when it is. The rest of the world does though. The FAs are going to have a fricking shite fit if FIFA tries to move it to the winter.

Too much money has already passed from Qatari hands into Blatter's pocket. The deal is done, tournament has to be held there, and unfortunately winter is the only viable option.

so rescheduling every major league season except for the MLS is the right choice?

Looks like if this happens all the leagues in Europe will have an extended winter break.
