Winner of NSCs worst ever thread title?

there's a tenuous link...

When the plans were shown in 2013 they were said to have been inspired by a traditional Arabian boat - but the images went viral with commentators suggesting the stadium looked more like a woman's private parts

I mean if you ignore all the other bad stuff going on around them when they were being built, those autobahns are lovely…

Continuing the porn analogly, you wouldn't catch me in any of THOSE either.

There’s a difference between not going there and your example of not being ‘caught’ going there, especially if we go back to the title of the thread!

Can’t wait ! Will be an interesting World Cup. Hopefully warmer than South Africa was too

Still in Brighton
I still can't decide whether to watch this debacle
a/ at all
b/ somehow without contributing to it financially or putting money into sponsors pockets (I've got a Hisense hob :down: )
c/ just shrug like a Newcastle fan and say it's nothing to do with me, I just want to enjoy watching football.

Me too. I love a bit of footy, but.....

And December, though.....not a lot else on......

I'll hold off for now.

Like a lot have said, this wc is unpalatable to say the least. No doubt I'll watch it though, particularly if we do well but have zero interest/excitement right now.
Funnily enough I was just reading something about it which made me check the dates. Think we are a dead cert to win it now. Turns out I've booked a flight to Dubai and will be in the air as the final is being played.

Oh well.

Would have liked to have seen some countries boycott it.

I've already decided I won't be watching a single minute of any of the matches.

At the end of my tether
We know all that is wrong about this World Cup . I too have less interest than I used to have . However, I agree with o/p that those stadiums look really nice. I suppose, for the money, they ought to be.

When the tournament comes I will watch some, out of a football interest rather than support of England. With several Albion players hoping to be there, I will watch them.
