Good read.
I have a friend who lives in Dubai but travels to Qatar frequently. He believes there is zero chance Qatar meets even half of FIFA's requirements by 2022. He says that many of his Qatari counterparts still believe they can do anything because of the gas price spike, but that they don't realize those profits are almost entirely dead.
It is a true shame that the WC is still slated to be there. FIFA needs to get their shite together, or a massive bribing scandal needs to break to divert this trainwreck.

There have already been bribing scandals. The problem is that there is no oversight for this sort of thing but FIFA policing itself. And we know how well that's been working...

If shite hits the fan really close to the World Cup, they could just hand it to the United States, knowing we are fully prepared.
