It'd be a real shame if Iran lobbed a missile at a stadium by accident wouldn't it. Who the **** is going to a hot, sandy potential warzone?

Qatar and Iran are allies against Saudi Arabia, so probably not likely

Yeah, so Saudi Arabia will just have one of it's many terrorist proxies plant some limpet mines around the stadia then.

Surely for those 1,400+ immigrant workers who have died building the damn things we should continue with their use as intended and trial/punish both of the parties involved separately.

If they keep it in qatar I hope all or at least some of the team's would boycott the event.

Hope they change the location and time of year it's going to be then now. Having it in Qatar is stupid.

It will go ahead in Qatar and no one will boycott it because the western nations are weak and the rest understand that's how the world works

Those that are found guilty of the corruption charges should be made to realise those deaths are on their hands. As should every single attendee.

Have they as yet never bothered to find anything to indict Septic Blatter?

There seems to be a lot of corruption on all sides. I think they got chosen for political reasons, and now it's being taken away for political reasons.
