The Saudies have promised to maintain a hands-off approach to visiting fans on the lash.

Be careful though, I mistakenly carried a single 'e' into 'Saudis' but somehow got away with it.

I believe Brighton fans are often subjected to homophobic chants.  Perhaps we're not as civilized on the terraces as we like to think.

Yes. So would everybody else. It is a ridiculous competition. I notice the football authorities are having difficulties now getting nations to offer to host it. Long may that continue.

As far as I know Saudi is still a dry country so no one on the lash.  Don't think football fans will be there long enough to brew their own as some expats used to do in the past.

So in the space of 12 years two awful regimes who hate gays and women, with no footballing history and no meaningful interest, host two world cups.

FIFA is a disgrace.

It won't happen of course but it woujr be great if certain countries took a stand and said "we aren't going".

As they did when FIDA tried to bring Russian teams back. Although I'm not sure where that's got to.

No country is perfect but there are good footballing reasons for not playing there aside from the political.

No way will they allow alcohol, unlike the Qararis.

Wasn't much the same thing asked about the Qatar World Cup?

I have doubts any World Cup will be happening in 2034 in the Middle East or anywhere
