Bacon of the Sea posted:In terms of money, stadia, ability not to kill footballers during a summer tournament and it being an emerging market who've not hosted it before, the following probably get on the list: A world cup in India would be the most beautifully unorganized mess ever OP

Crazy Ted posted:Defending Qatar this month – European Club Association head Karl Heinz-Rummenigge: "After visiting Qatar for our last general assembly we had a good feeling about a World Cup there." Also last week: German tax authorities fine Rummenigge a reported €250,000 for failing to declare two Rolexes received as gifts during the trip. this is becoming a parody of itself

vyelkin posted:If he hasn't completed his mission yet in 16 years, what makes him think he's qualified to complete it now? That is more time than Franklin Delano Roosevelt got as President of the United States, and most people would say he completed at least one of his missions. His mission is to collect all the money. It's never over.

Baldo di Gregorio posted:I'm hoping it goes to court tbh, it's so hosed up it defies comprehension but when you're Sepp and anyone on the FIFA executive committee I guess you can't help but think you can do absolutely whatever the gently caress you want. You don't even need to hide it, just be as corrupt as you want and escape all repercussions, forever I feel like the broadcasters will step in. Murdoch didn't pay three billion pounds for a winter break.

serious gaylord posted:They also didnt pay ridiculous sums for world cup rights to have it not be the centre attraction of the summer and instead compete with loads of other sport. Serious question: what other sports are in Asia? While the American market is obviously flooded with tons of others and we have rugby we all know the money is with the Asians. When's the cricket season for example? I guess the Japanese have base ball and the Chinese basketball right? Do they watch MLB, NFL, and NBA at close try what the watch football?
