Well we all know they bought the world cup....
Qatar should not have getting it under any circumstances, the country is tiny with a small population and not enough places to meet FIFA'S criteria of 14 Grounds in 12 different cities with one city having, in Qatar most grounds will be close to Doha, there was even talk of some games going to neighboring countries...
In Qatar there is just over 2.1 million people, 1 team for every 67,000 people and 1 game for every 33,000 compared to Brazil whose population is 202 million, 1 team for every 6.2 million people and 1 match for every 3.1 million.
While I think it is good that areas have the chance to bid for a World Cup and it can give boost to these countries, I think the Qatari bid should never have won in the first place...
So what should be done about it, should it be taken from them, it has been mentioned Legal Action could be taking against FIFA and if that happens I could see it staying in the Asian Football Confederation either China or Australia somewhere like that or America, I would love to see us get it, but FIFA would not have that as they don't like consecutive tournaments on the same continent...
I have even heard someone say the 2018 bid should also be re-run as well, I could imagine the Russians being as bent as a nine bob note...
FIFA are nothing now, a big joke and hopefully Sepp Blather should stand down now, FIFA needs to take a long hard look at themselves, and regroup with a new set of rules
