    @dogmeat said in FIFA World Cup 2022 (men):

    You should all jump into KP's WC Tipping comp.

    Doesn't take a lot of effort and it does give meaningless games a bit more of a point

    I have Nederlands going out to Argies in the QF

    Injuries are already taking their toll on squads

    Message me if you want to take part - @dogmeat @Hooroo of TSF are already in.

    I'll follow the football just because it is a month with no football otherwise. Really hard to pick a winner given there are plenty of good teams that all have weaknesses and no idea how conditions will affect the games. Suspect a lot of the games will be very dull (I mean tactical)

    Most obvious bait and switch ever, they've re-banned beer in stadia, after earlier saying they'd allow it (when fans were booking trips)

    This great.

    While it seemed crazy back in 2010, a "where are they now" is still amazing to read.

    https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/oct/08/blatter-to-beckham-who-was-in-the-room-when-qatar-got-the-world-cup

    These ones the best:

    David Beckham … Then Ambassador for English bid. Declared himself “disgusted” by bidding process that saw Qatar awarded 2022 tournament. Now Ambassador for Qatar.

    Vladimir Putin … Then Russia’s prime minister. Now Invaded Crimea, used chemical weapons on British soil, started land war in Ukraine. Lauded nonetheless by Gianni Infantino who declared during a 2018 order of friendship ceremony at the Kremlin that the world was “in love” with Russia.

    "The world was "in love" with russia" 🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🙄

    Infantile embarrasses himself, but probably doesn't realise.

    https://www.news.com.au/sport/football/world-cup/fifa-boss-says-furore-over-fake-fans-at-qatar-world-cup-is-pure-racism/news-story/7df3ec8af13462897e4ea7f73c9a1caf
    He added: “Today I feel Qatari. Today I feel Arabic. Today I feel African. Today I feel gay. Today I feel disabled. Today I feel (like) a migrant worker."

    Kinda looks still alive to me.

    Infantino has regularly put his in his mouth in recent weeks. Muppet.

    If you're in NZ, this is a handy page on Sky's website with info about when and on which channel games are televised.
    Some games are live on Sky and/or Prime. Some delayed on Prime Plus, Pre-match, Post-match etc

    Funny. Hard to think how this tournament could be more of a joke.

    Saddest thing about this tournament for me is that World Rugby are 20-30 years behind FIFA and by 2050 will have joined them in the same corrupt, moral vacuum.

    Despite not being that interested here I am watching the opening match. Qatar look hopeless.

    How Qatari was the Qatar team? I see a Pedro Miguel from Portugal played but did they buy any Brazilians?
