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)
And sleeping in shipping containers?
Sounds more like detainment than a world cup....
"Hose the smell of cheap imported labour out of there and paint over the blood! We have guests coming!"

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

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?

@canefan not sure the Qatari cellars are chilly enough for him.

I accidentally just saw some of the opening ceremony... the Qatari President, or Prince, or Head Executioner, or some shit - giving the welcome speech.
FFS... the interpreter was interpreting on the fly, and making agoddamnallah-damned hash of it. How difficult is it to prepare a pre-interpreted version for somebody to read confidently? Or at least provide a copy of the speech ahead of time, so at least SOME prep could be done. -
So we're up against the Seppos in the morning huh?
What are our chances?
Regardless, at least we'll win the anthem... (mixing a couple of translations together as follows...)
My hen laid a haddock on top of a tree,
Glad barks and centurions throw dogs in the sea,
My guru asked Elvis and brandished Dan’s flan,
Don’s muddy bog’s blocked up with sand.
Whales, whales,
Bloody great fishes are whales
They live in the sea; we eat them for tea
By sprink-a-ling salt on their tailsAnd we've got dragons ... they've got, red tinged fireworks?
