Is it possible that FIFA is the most corrupt sports organisation in the World?
 

Boo hoo.

Boo Hoo!? We dodged a big ****ing bullet there! http://www.discussworldissues.com/im...ons/icon14.gif

Oh, and Japan, Korea, and USA for being greedy enough to want to host another WC so shortly after having hosted one. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ons/icon13.gif

USA commentator complaining about FIFA corruption :

This bit was funny though:
Quatar ... Located at a huge distance from most of the fans who might want to go? I'm not sure he's thought that bit through.

The dumbest part of Qatar is that it will be totally unenjoyable for fans.

That and I'm sure players will drop dead and there wont be any ****ing replay for flopping.

That would make it the most exciting World Cup in history!

Some player was shot dead in '94. I want to say he was a Columbian called Escobar, but it may just be a drugs connection in my brain. The US hosted one anyway, so it's not unexpected.

And?

It's demonym is Colombian

Are you correcting a typo, or making a point?

Wow, it's like the Falklands all over again http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/biggrin.gif

No idea, that's why I was asking. THought I was missing a subtle point. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/smile.gif

If only people would stop being so good at investigating corruption in the UK. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/frown.gif

Please. That would have been an improvement.

There were two of them doing this, to be fair.

I was implying that with my "Maggie?" comment, but I think it got misunderstood. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/frown.gif

Hi, buddyhttp://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/smile.gif
Arshavin is finally starting to play well this season. This is good, as he's a player who can produce something out of nothing, when he can be bothered. Yeah, I've seen the game vs. Aston Villahttp://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/smile.gif
Was he ever accused of being lazy when he was at Zenit? Not sure about Zenit, but as for national team lately - yes.
