wtf have they ever done for football :(
England the home of football , or the mighty spain&portugal nah lets take Mother Russia!
U.S.A an upcoming football nation, the world cup would surely secure the stability of growth of the game in U.S.A, same can be said for Japan and Austrailia. Nah lets take Qatar, they love football:|

Russia = $$
Fifa wants $$
( The premier league one of the most famous and recognised leagues in the world, doing so much work for charity and promoting the game, its a small country and with the introduction of high speed railways, travelling to each destination would be no problem. England has high quality stadiums and have the best infrastructure for football.) better?
And to be honest, saying England is 'home' to football is quite arrogant. It's kinda denigrating to say 'we deserve it'. You don't deserve anything. You already had a WC, the others except for Spain never had it. And who cares where a sport is invented? No one uses this argument about gulf or cycling or basketball or whatever.
It'll be at least 67 years between should England be succesful in 2030 - that's basically a lifetime. An article on the beeb had it right - it's almost as if FIFA want to keep England in the back pocket as cover in case these 'developing' nations don't pull it off.
See what money buys!!!
Russia is good for a number of reasons:
1) Secure the stability of growth of the game in ALL OFF Russia. Outside of Moscow football is not THAT popular and the WC could give it a serious boost.
2) Improving football-related infrastructure with a dozen new stadiums.
3) Improving the standard of life with massive improvements in roads, airports, etc.
4) Financial security. You just KNOW organising the WC will not bankrupt them like it will Spain & Portugal.
Edit: and just like Mizzi said, what the fuck do you care anyway? You'll all sit behind your tv at home anyway.
They wont admit who they were voting for originaly or who they changed their vote to.
Also Qatar is an Arab country and one of the most oil rich countries in the world after Iran and Saudi Arabia. Qatar is Irans closest ally which is developing nuclear power and is very rich in oil itself.
1. Pay FIFA officials to vote for an oil rich country.
2. get friendly with oil rich countries by giving them $billions to build a national rail network and improve all modes of transport for the WC.
3. Be the ones who get more of the oil in the future
4. Profit
Say what you want but trust me on this. In the future when oil starts running out you can bet your ass youl be hearing alot more about how US and UK are becoming more and more friendly with Qatar,Saudi Arabia and Iran. Saudia Arabia hosting the world cup in 2030 tbh.
I said to my dad that an oil rich country will get to host a world cup as a result of this bid. SUCCESS
Wouldnt such an event give their economy a huge impulse?
They WILL have to work on that, I'm expecting to see exhausted teams after travelling halfway through Russia between games.
Fyi, football should never be about politics or economics. This decision was purely because of that. Yet you keep supporting them just to feel better than the other people on CF.
Yes, there are a lot of things wrong in Russia. But they should be given the opportunity to prove themselves. And if there is one thing you can be sure of, is that everything will be working in time for 2018.
Also, there are a lot of misconceptions here and on other websites concerning Russia's bid. I'm merely rectifying those mistakes, sorry for helping truth prevail over lies.
Tell me, how will the Russian inhabitants benefit from this? Shouldn't the Russian government "prove themselves" by making the poor-rich gap smaller?
Your fascination is weird to say the least.
And this event will improve roads, rail network, airports. If you look at the state of them now, that will be a massive improvement in life for those who use it ;-p
Gap between rich and poor is enlarging everywhere, even in Belgium and England. Don't see how it matters.
Edit: How is it strange btw? I bet everybody has some country he likes for some reason. In my case it's Russia. The history, the culture, the landscape, I love it all.
See, we're not so different after all :-)
You also need proofs that you are staying in a hotel every night you're in Russia.
And for indonesia I also needed to send my flight ticket or my hotel booking, I just send them the flight ticket because I'm not going to stay in a hotel ^^
If you're gonna stay at 1 place it's not that difficult, but when I go to Russia I wanna go through many cities (big & small) and who's to say they have internet in Siberia? :o
Nobody is going to check if you actually stay in the hotel you booked :P
And well here we have several sites/companies that help you getting the visa, I used the service ANWB offers, I can just bring my stuff to the local ANWB office and they take care of the rest. (for just 10 euro extra) Think in belgium you can find the same services.
And if you really want to see a country you should just do it instead of whining :P Trip to russia might be expensive, but you can also get some bus trip for 150 euro to mosow (saw it in an advert some day ago).
But well I just saved a bit and paid 900 euro for my flight ticket, but it's worth it to visit one of the most beautiful countries in the world. (going in january, bye bye winter! :D)
Whatcha gonna do in Indonesia btw?
Goin alone or with a group?
I'm going alone, I'm going to meet a girl there (already chatting with her for more than a year and her aunt is working in the same place as me) and she is going to be my guide to the many cool places in and around Bandung, such as volcanic craters. And if the temples in yogyakarta are already open we'll go to see them too, but until new they are closed because of the volcanic ashes of the merapi volcano which was bursting a month ago.
good point :-) specially knowing fumble is a chelsea fan, who spent millions in 1 season few years back :DDDDD
It's often filled with the most boring football ever anyway.
Russia? I see already supporters travelling from Vladivostok, Petersburg etc to Moscow for every stage of the cup. Nice fuck up, FIFA
Here you go.
Also one aircompany has pledged to offer cheap flights inside Russia for all fans with a ticket.

let's me speak from my heart [x]
1 form of racism results in fines for the host $$$ for FIFA win!
All I want to say is that racism on the stadiums isn't that big problem in Poland nowadays. Actually biggest problem is with infrastructure. Not all roads, airports etc. will be ready until Euro 2012.
Time will tell. :D
Every country in Europe has problems with racism (in football).
and Qatar? LOL WCYD
Scroll up for the lols on my spam argument about Qatar getting it in 2022.
