snakehips 0 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I see Sepp Blatter expects the Qatar world cup to be moved to the winter time. Hmmm, I'm not sure if this is good or bad, apart from it being slap bang in the middle of everyone's seasons. I suppose it will give a few folk the chance of some winter sunshine. Thoughts?

Monkeys Fist 38911 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 It's mental. If they have a break in the league, are the players at the WC then expected to go straight back into playing? With a months break, the league will finish a month later than usual, do we then start the next season on time, or delay that to give time for transfers and pre-season? It's mental.

Imagine the mongs and retards at every game if one player did something wrong in a game that curtailed Engurland's hopes!! Remember what the trolls were like when Beckham got sent off by that muppet Nielsen in France '98? It would be far worse if the winter wc happened as the 'evil trator' returned to playing for his club side so soon after the offence. Booooooooooo.

Mac-Toon 1 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 It'll suit other nations far greater than ours. Those who have winter breaks and those who are used to sunnier climes. What's the average temperature in Nov/Dec in Qatar. I bet it's still far hotter than it ever is here. The whole process and the decision to hold it in a country so strict and undeveloped is a joke. FIFA are a disgrace but then, aren't all large sporting organisations? Ye can barely have a sup if you went to Qatar and the place will be soo packed it'll be a farce. We'll have Brooklyn Beckham and Kai Rooney bossin' midfield and Almunias offspring in nets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm, I'm not sure if this is good or bad, apart from it being slap bang in the middle of everyone's seasons. I suppose it will give a few folk the chance of some winter sunshine. Thoughts? I can genuinely see some of the Worlds leading nations giving this a miss. Maybe organise their own tournement in the summer. The fact it puts players at risk in the heat would probably see some European countries at least dissuading their players from going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTF 6198 Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Oh, and the obviously critically important Qatar were just beaten 2-0 in the AFC Asian Cup..... by Football powerhouses Uzbekistan. The most annoying part? Relative to Qatar they actually are powerhouses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26550 Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 You might've thought that this would be the sort of thing they might take into consideration during the bid process. I'd love the PL turn round and tell them that they'll refuse to release their players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've got plans for that though and the money to pull it off - they've got a team of coaches going around scouting out the 3rd world and offering promising kids and their families the chance to move to Qatar so by the time the world cup comes around they'll be able to play for them.

Phil 6 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Platini says they can play the games in different countries throughout the Arabian Gulf. Looks like the bungs were traceable as they are royally bending over. I'm waiting for the news there are considering using wider goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
