Seems legit. To be fair I would take these guys over the cretins at the euro final

I wonder if they’ll do stuff like choreographed Mexican waves, Poznans, tifos or their own England band

I cannot believe the areas near the big screens are not under shade. It’s literally the first and most important thing you would write on the requirements list.

If we lose the England band to a fatal bout of heatstroke this whole shitshow will have been worth it though.

The early doom and gloom vibes remind me of the London 2012 Olympics. Until Britain started winning some events.
Will be interesting to see the mood if England progress and actually win this (lol). Fuck it, I want to see it happen just to be proven right. C'mon England!

The doom and gloom isn't about the football itself though, it's the shit show around it.

Yeah I don't really care about the S O C C E R. But this is still fascinating in a Fyre Fest kind of way (though way more deadly and disturbing), so I'm paying attention despite my lack of interest in the sports.

It would be quite funny if England won the most pointless Word Cup in history.

Paying 3K for an upscale refugee camp looks like a bargain.

Wow, that's pretty atrocious. And they're still building stuff at the same time. Jeez.

I want to say right now that this HD broadcast is the worst I've ever seen, looks worse than old SDTV.
Edit: switched to the 4K broadcast and it's vaguely acceptable now.

Some England fans reportedly arrested for singing "get your face out for the boys" to a waitress.

It would be quite funny if England won the most pointless Word Cup in history. As much as all the criticism around it is justified, how is the tournament itself in any way pointless? Whoever wins it won't give a flying fuck around the controversy, or time of year it's being played. Their names will go down in history and that's all that matters.

Didn't expect to see a Ros Atkins report on the World Cup lead in on the BBC.

Fair play to the bbc, they are going to town on the Qatar regime etc. and fifa too. The hard right wing are going to be having fits of rage

Rai here is being much more accomodating. They are saying things like "yeah, the situation isn't all that great, but this World Cup could be a catalyst for changing things". They also seem to stay very generic and unwilling to mention what exactly are the issues that need to be improved.

Equador makes Sash a fortune whenever they qualfy for a world cup.

A lot of that Qatar team looks decidedly non Middle Eastern…
