    Rotten to the core.

    We need to leave and set-up a new world body. The British Register of International BallSports Events. or BRIBE for short.

    It can work like that "Voted Product of the year" thing they quote on adverts.
    England can be crowned Football champions of the world (England division)

    Wait, you mean Qatar 2022 wasn't won legitimately?!?

    Say it isn't so.

    If by legitimately you mean with substantial bungs and back handers, then yes...yes it was.

    Qatar will probably still keep the World Cup - FIFA have already cleared them of corruption.

    Ah, perfect - glad we cleared that up.

    I was worried for a moment there.

    Again, perfect - the corrupt organization which took the bribes made the award in the first place has said its all above board.

    That's obviously that. Should be good enough for anyone.

    It was mentioned on the radio news that FIFA are very nervous about having any external organisations investigate because if it led to a court case after cancellation could lead to Qatar asserting that "...we paid these bribes in good faith..."

    Would be a shame if Qatar didn’t just the World Cup because all those indentured srevants who died building their white elephant showpiece stadiums would have been in vain.
