Is this gonna be like when F1 had a race in Saudi literally the day after there was a missile strike a few miles from the track?

A couple nhl games just got cancelled because the arena in Nashville got flooded due to a city water main break. This stuff regularly happens everywhere. There’s enough to laugh at without being paranoid over fires. I don’t think there’s been much evidence of actual shoddy construction in the Qatari stadiums right? Like they’re fit for purpose, just horribly managed and built using slave labour.

Not to take away from the serious issue but I can never get over how loving decadently fancy athlete locker rooms are these days. Not as disgusting a use of money as when college football locker rooms are like this but still. Just put some goddamn lockers and closets, not a loving spaceship pod.

With messages like these, they should be made to change outside in the desert.

I mean to be fair it is still a locker and bench on a basic level, I don't know even in the most decked out football locker room that I've seen anything hugely over the top. Though it is always fun watching stadium tours and seeing the extremely big difference between home and away facilities. I remember watching a tour of Anfield one time and the guy straight up said they want visiting teams to feel unwelcome.

The away locker room at Iowa's football stadium has one toilet and one urinal. It's also painted a dull pink to "calm" the visitors.

Missile strikes and water main breaks definitely seem like comparable situations, yes

Nothing they have there is particularly expensive. It’s a relatively simple design with average materials, so unless you’re intentionally trying to make something lovely I’m not sure why you would do less.

Petition to call that one guy “Al-Sucka”

One of the Portuguese weekly papers has an exclusive claiming that Qatar will blacklist Portugal as soon as the WC is over because our President pissed off everyone by ignoring calls for him to not attend the Cup in person and criticising Qatar's human rights abuses once he was actually in Qatar.
