The World Cup 2022 Thread

[Rafa Justice]

Due to working from home this is the first WC that I could watch every single minute of football since Italia 90.

[Harv]

I'll be watching every game I can because I love football and hate politics.

[SB]

Just not arsed with international football at the best of times but throw that in with where it's being held and I've no interest at all.

I hope the viewing figures for this WC are an all time low as if there's changes to be made it's by hitting the likes of FIFA in the pocket and the tv revenue money will be where it hurts the most!

That’s how I feel about it too. It’s hard for me to give a stuff about players that I strongly dislike succeeding even when they are in the same international team as our players.

If fans/players/respective FA's and media/sponsors really cared they would all boycott the world cup leaving Qatar with nothing but empty stadia....but this isn't a perfect world we live in... We are all hypocrites to some degree just trying to get on with our daily routines...

Every game on SBS.

I'll watch it because I like football. Doesn't mean I agree with the politics (felt the same about the WC in Russia). I'll mainly watch highlights and the odd live game.

World Cup 2022:
Awarding Qatar the tournament was a mistake, says former Fifa president Sepp Blatter now he has cashed the cheques

Yeah..hand the money back then you corrupt ****

Blatter has been saying the same for years. Think he voted US.

What is everyone doing regarding the WC? Will you be watching or boycotting or simply not arsed?

I don't like international football, and barely watch it but the WC is usually special. This time I really don't care partly because of the situation in Qatar, partly because of when it is and partly my apathy to international football, won't be able to boycott it as will be spending a couple of weeks with the in laws while it's on and they will be watching.

I won't be watching it.

[Norbs]

International football has no appeal to me. Just can't bring myself to support players like Kane, Walker and Pickford when I spend most of the time despising them

My plan, and I'm resolute about it at the minute, is to not watch. But I know how suggestible I am and with no other football on I'm well aware I'll be susceptible to being sucked in.

Like most here I couldn't care less about international football most of the time, but I do succumb to some extent to the hype of a tournament. My hype level at the minute is 0%. Literally zero. But it could change.

12 quid for a can of the worst beer on earth. **** me.

Ah wasn't aware, fair enough. He is, no doubt, still a cunt though

[Mark79]

I don’t intend to watch and I think it’ll be easy enough ignore the group stages since there’s only about 2 games that stand out.

My resilience may be tested once the knock out stages get going.

I hope it’s a really **** tournament.
