Qatar 2022

[AdviceDog]

Agree with you about Russia and the Ukraine, still can't believe that's all been forgotten about. They shouldn't have had the world Cup either, that was corrupt as was Qatar. I won't get started on China. I would say though that before it was 'were just sportsman, we don't get involved in politics' but now they do get involved in things like that, this is why this is different for me this time and why we should boycott it. As BFP says it'll be **** anyway.

Just a point of interest for you crazyfists. When I was out in Donetsk for Euro 2012 (great country by the way), I discovered that it is actually offensive to call it 'The Ukraine', because the use of 'the' dates back to the Soviet Union times and indicates that it is 'The Ukrainian part of Russia'. Which bristled them in 2012 and probably all the more so today!
