oldtype Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 KFA have hinted that they might be back in for the 2022 World Cup if it's stripped from Qatar. Unsure how much of a chance we'd have. We were 3rd behind the US by a single vote last time so I suppose it's not impossible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubaricho Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 We'll get it if it goes anywhere else. Mainly due to the fact that it is our own FBI doing most of the investigation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan_Taylor Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 If it goes to a re-vote surely Qatar couldn't be involved? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 If it goes to a re-vote surely Qatar couldn't be involved? Probably. Maybe they'd even allow new bids. Maybe the UAE can get it instead Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 If it goes to a re-vote surely Qatar couldn't be involved? don't be silly, Blatter will have a revote to make himself look good and get reelected then magically it will still go to Qatar because of "the quality of their bribes bid" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 The thing is with the whole 'respect a country's culture'. It applies under ordinary circumstances, but when you're INVITING the entire world in for a month, when there were shit loads of alternatives and you have zero football history and then you ask them not to do things that are entirely normal to everywhere else in the world, you're taking the fucking piss.

Yeah 'respect a country's culture' generally means learn a few words of the local language and try not to act like a cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Even if it wasn't things that were totally impractical, it would be okay. But no drinking...at a World fucking Cup and cover your skin....in 45 degree heat, it's specifically annoying. They're just coming out as annoying as fuck in general in this whole thing, it'll be a complete fucking disaster. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 There's probably only like 100 odd countries which love football where it isn't 50 degrees in June so it's an obvious choice to pick one that doesn't and it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Can it really go to a re- vote? I mean by the time people prepare bids, get the backing from their countries again, make the bids, then have a vote then you will pretty much need to be getting ground construction going straight away.

That's the latest figure Qatar would look to claim off FIFA. I'd love nothing more tbh, if it killed FIFA and a new governing body formed, a one answerable to its public.

Honestly don't think Qatar has a chance at claiming money back if it is proven beyond doubt that they bought the WC. "Oh, our fraud was seen through? Well they better pay us our money back."

Hanshithispantz Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 It was just an all around mental decision, and because of that so fucking obvious to anyone that it was bought. It makes about as much sense as hosting a fucking rave in Birkenau. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure FIFA want to take that chance. All this came out right at the start, cash for votes, with bin hammed as well, they did nothing then and they'll do nowt now. Everyone has been paid, all too scared to be outed for their crimes to stand up and force this through. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty confident most of the European countries with a major league could probably be ready to host it with a years notice. It would probably go to France, Platini is in with Blatters and France are building/regenerating stadiums for the Euro's. Then again would Europe get it so soon after Russia (assuming Russia will still retain 2018)? Only the USA could really host it without needing to build new stadia outside of Europe, that is if FIFA will allow the use of American football stadiums.
