Qatar World Cup Is A Symbol Of Everything Wrong With The Game

FAKE fans drinking fake beer at a fake World Cup. You’d wonder what the point of the tournament in the desert is beyond putting millions in certain pockets.

It all looks like a pretty miserable experience, from the fans who are being shoved into portacabins in the craic-free zones to the players who do not seem to be delighted about having to play in a place like that in November.

FIFA, who you can’t accuse of being morally bankrupt because that would raise the question of whether they had some morals to lose, have their shabby little show and the suits will be comfy in their champagne-filled, twenty thousand dollar VIP boxes.
