I still can't believe the balls on them. How the £#%&! did they think they'd get away with it?

But awarding the World Cup to Qatar was a move in the direction of royally taking the piss. A statement that the whole procedure is bent and nobody could challenge it. Step too far.

And the one before that to those straight as an arrow £#%&!ing Russians

It was coming, they'd been hiding in plain sight for a long time. Over-reached themselves this time though, the silly £#%&!ers.

Bellers is ok, isn't his work all World Cup based?

Really?

Once the prison sentences start getting handed out, i doubt whoever is in charge will think it'll be worth the risk of being so dementedly stupid. Looks like The Feds, combined with some brilliant investigative journalists have got this nailed for now.
