Horse Renoir 1 Posted May 29, 2015 The alternative was no better. What has a Jordanian prince of all people got to do with football? That organisation has the deaths of hundreds of slaves in Qatar on their hands, what sickens me is something only gets done after money related crimes are uncovered. Some very old rich men got a bit richer and apparently hundreds of deaths is an acceptable priceOur FA and any other countries inc sponsors are just as bad as they are for not pulling out. But they won''t too much money to be made... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wooster 134 Posted May 29, 2015 It is appalling that over 1,200 lives have been lost in building facilities in Qatar for what everyone knows is a ridiculous project that was only realised through inappropriate behaviour.UEFA should withdraw from FIFA (with UK participating countries support) and run a European competition with USA & Australian involvement. That would concentrate the minds of sponsors and hopefully detach them from FIFA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The sponsors except Gazprom will probably get out of their contracts if they can.Another source of money - the broadcasters will probably follow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
