Neither will belgium

I don't see why people are calling Qatar names for this. They aren't the ones that proposed this idea. It's FIFA that did.

Like I've said, FIFA chased the money. Qatar and Russia should not have had a chance of winning the bid.

What in the blue hell are you basing that prediction on? Most of their team at that point will consist of players who are currently between the ages of 8 and 18. You've already mapped out their progression over the next 12 years?

There's only one team that we know for sure will play in the 2022 World Cup: Qatar.

Mohamed bin Hammam has stated publicly that holding it in the Winter would be a suitable solution. However, his primary position continues to be that Qatar can hold it in the summer and still make it comfortable for the players. You are correct that the main thrust for holding the tournament in the winter has come from Sepp Blatter.

As long as Qatar told the truth in their bid and they stick to what they told the bid committee, you can't begrudge Qatar. They wanted the World Cup, they made a bid and they won. As long as they stick to the bid, fair play to them.

Who you can begrude, however, is FIFA for acting like the risk assessments were important. The risk assessments obviously amount to jack shit. Qatar was assessed as the riskiest host but they still won. So obviously, risk minimization isn't FIFA's primary motivation anymore. They should have told the bidding nations that. I bet America's bid would have looked a lot different had we known. And as long as FIFA isn't going to be honest about their criteria, I think we should refrain from bidding all-together. It costs a lot of money to put a proposal together and we have much more important things to spend our money on these days.
