norfolkchance1 0 Posted December 10, 2010 The strange thing about that report is the fact that Pep Guardiola was an ambassador for the Qatar 2022 bid, when Spain had a bid for the World Cup in 2018.Surely that must make him some kind of traitor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You never know with these things...[/quote]According to the papers, Qatar and Spain/Portugal WERE involved in a vote swapping agreement.Also, there is no doubt Pep picked up a hefty sum for endorsing the Qatar bid, as did the FIFA committe members who voted for it.
