Beren Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Oh it's too perfect. The FA are as bent as a £15 note. They have no leg to stand on to accuse FIFA, even if they are flagrantly and unashamedly bad. This is beautiful. The FA can go fuck itself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorJ_01 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Think I may not watch the 2022 world cup. It's a sham. Can't watch it with the knowledge that desperate workers have died to make it happen. It's totally against what the world cup is meant to be about - a coming together of nations. FIFA make me sick.

It would be refreshing if no company made a bid for the rights to show it. The whole concept of the Qatar world cup is the end of it all as far as I'm concerned. A tiny country with no heritage, no stadiums, an oppressive climate and a shocking human rights record. It should be the last world cup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ameritoon Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Unsurprisingly, anything damning about current FIFA members wasn't released: http://www.si.com/soccer/planet-futbol/2014/11/12/fifa-garcia-report-2022-world-cup-qatar-russia-corruption Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanSkÃrare Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 This further decreases my interest. Step by step everything likeable about football seems to be eradicated and replaced by egotistical, greedy, predictable shit. It's a shame because football has so much influence and potential to do good. The fight for human rights could really be a big part of their agenda. Instead they're getting behind regimes inciting the exact opposite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Alyosha Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I really, fervently wish we'd just walk away. I mean, clearly the ramifications would be enormous and far-reaching, but it would be a fantastic gesture . Its a lose-lose proposition for both sides as far as profits are concerned, so that's never going to happen. However, it might end up becoming a good thing for the fans. It would be better for UEFA to walk away. They'd take the Champions League with them so all the big clubs would follow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 why the fuck doesn't he just leak the full report, he fucking wrote it why appeal to FIFA to appeal the whitewashing of his report by fucking FIFA His report won't come out with anything in anyway, he done it on behalf of FIFA, not an outside body. All he is doing is saying there is stuff in there that he can't disclose which would show that he done his job correctly and impartially in order to still come across as professional as he can be. A private report investigating possible corruption carried out and paid for by the company/organisation accused of corruption concludes that there was no corruption. Thats like the Cookie monster making a report on what the best food is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 It's too shameless to even get annoyed about, it's just hilarious "OK, that guy's done that independent review. You can't see the report but it basically says the Russia and Qatar bids were fine and dandy and the real bad guys are the people who said they were corrupt. Especially England, they're the most corrupt out of everyone" "Uh, had on, that's not what I said at all." "Shut up. " Honestly wouldn't be surprised if it's announced this guy has committed suicide by shooting himself four times in the back of the head, leaving a note saying he couldn't live with the lies he told about his own report.
