World Cup 2022

I don't think hosting a World Cup in a totalitarian human-rights violating autocracy is really conducive to a "carnival" atmosphere. If anything, Souness and Keane merely reflect the prevailing brute masculinity of the place.
The human rights issues are well known around the world, we don’t need half-witted football pundits to reinforce how we should all feel. Can we not just enjoy the football now? Roy no-mates shouldn’t be anywhere near world cups. The most negative human on earth, and the guy couldn’t even be bothered to stay and play for his country in one. Useless coach as well.

We don't need a pretend, artificial "carnival" to take our minds off the reality, either. I'm enjoying the football for what it is. Why shouldn't I? I don't need a pundit to add some festivity. This World Cup is what it is. Too many would prefer to ignore the totalitarianism in plain view.

I'd have him hosting 'this morning', the numbers would be insane. Imagine his face as he casts the fluff aside and doles out hot ladels of realism to the unexpected masses. No treacle with Roy.

Hi Roy…….

Forget about carnival atmosphere etc, Roy would put a dampener on the cure for cancer.

You can always turn him off. I mean, I'm Irish and even I don't take him seriously. He's good for a ruckus and that's probably enough to make him employable given the happy-clappy back-slapping vibe of most English TV football panels.
 
What’s this ‘Forced Turnovers’ stat that appears on the screen?

Are they trying to rename tackles to ‘forced turnovers’?
 

Utter clown show from Qatar, everyone flying in for the Wales v England game just received an email saying “Entry Visa Cancelled”

Loads of people have missed games due to visas disappearing off their App and not been allowed to fly in.

Hopefully it will be sorted before Tuesday, but any claim that this shiz show ran smoothly for fans, is a lie.

Dream trip, my arse !

Yes, you can. They are not forcing you to watch the pre-game/half-time/post-game talk. Turn the TV on/over at kick off (put it on mute, if you also feel that the commentary is ruining you watching football), then turn the TV off/over when the full-time whistle goes.
