[Football] England Band In Qatar

[Frutos]

Disgusting if true:

England fans paid to be ‘spies’ at World Cup

A group of 40 England fans are being paid by Qatar to attend the World Cup, with instructions to deliver positive messages about the experience, sing certain so

Crikey - that is rancid

 

[Commander]

I'd happily pay for that 'band' to stay away from the World Cup. Does anybody other than the people in it actually like them?

 

[Happy Exile]

Now I have to decide if I'm more appalled at the behaviour of the band or the thought of Harry Kane lifting the trophy if England win.

 

[sparkie]

I can't wait for this disgrace of a tournament to be overwith and forgotten.

Looking forward to the Euros and also the PL restarting on Boxing Day.

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

Fuckin hell, I didn’t think I could despise that band any more.

 

[Acker79]

I think the article has been/will be updated, but a follow up tweet noted other members of the band are included in the group of people being paid by Qatar, too.

Sickening.

I hope all right-minded England supporters make their feelings known to the band for accepting Qatari blood money.

Oh! FIFA have told us we have to "focus on the football". We mustn't be worrying our pretty little heads about stuff like this

Fifa writes to all 32 teams competing at the controversial World Cup in Qatar to tell them the time has come to "focus on the football".

Bollocks to it all.
This world cup is dead to me

I hate that England band. There are quite a few negatives associated with the England away day experience and they are without a doubt the the absolute worst of them.

Don't care about the England band at matches in the slightest, it's never bothered me. But this really does bother me, the fact that Qatar/FIFA are paying people to make out everything is wonderful at this disgusting tournament. It's not only completely fake but those individuals who have taken the money are vile and complicit.

I imagine it’s been the same for other countries fans, it would be great if they all launched into civil disobedience as soon as the cameras get on them, then hotfoot it out of the stadium and onto planes back to wherever they have come from, sadly won’t happen though.

For the period of this revolting tournament, I shall be filling my boots with Non-League football around our wonderful county, and perhaps even further afield with the mighty Worthing FC.

This bothers me, and the England band should be binned off for being paid shills for Qatar. On a related note, by god they're awful. The literal soundtrack to England's failure

Roll up, roll up.... souls for sale.... going cheap.

 

[Dave the hatosaurus]

Just glad I had already made up my mind not to watch any of this absolute sham of a tournament .

 

[Muzzman]

Urgh… I have a very bad feeling England might win this thing just to spite me. Would be typical for them to pick up a title so tainted.

The worst of it is that Qatar is going to let them in - bloody racket.
