Russia is a perfectly valid choice for a WC. Personally I'd have preferred England, but Russia will still put on a good show. But something is a bit up with this bid, Putin knew a few days before they were going to win the rights to host it.
Qatar's selection, however, is a fucking joke. No football history/culture, shit all population, one major city and airport, 50 degree temperature, basically ignoring most of FIFA's so called criteria. Lets see if they can really build all these stadiums with all this cooling technology. They cant air condition a whole counry though. This bid is clear corruption of the worst kind that only FIFA can be capable of. Money talks I guess. I hope all those cock sucking money grubbing ExCo members enjoy the millions of dollars in their Cayman Islands offshore accounts. Disgusting.
And no, I am not against a WC being held in the Middle East. Qatar is just about the worst choice for a location though.
FUCK FIFA, FUCK SEPTIC BLADDER AND FUCK MOHAMMED BIN HAMMAM.
Greedy leechfucks.
