Hope they do, but I won't hold my breath waiting.
Surely too much lack of face all around for that to happen. What they could do is ensure the games are all covered and air-conditioned ;-)

Anyway they have Brazilian protests to cope with first.
No they will not move it.

I am not bothered that the Games are to be held in a muslim country. Or an Arab one. But I think FIAs rules should stipulate that the World Cup should be held in a democratic Country.

We should not be supporting despotic regimes and absolute monarchs.
somebody should point Blatter to this and other similar pages

http://www.weatheronline.co.uk/reports/climate/Qatar.htm

Or maybe they need a younger man who knows about the internet already
"We should not be supporting despotic regimes and absolute monarchs."

Like FIFA you mean? *boom-tish*

I agree however.
Well I suppose holding it in a Muslim country may stop the drunken fighting, but I wonder if the reason they are behind is because they are so busy building extra Jails and gathering stones for the adulterers.

It won't be moved. Hell will freeze over before Blatter would go that far.
Quote:
''FIFA has moved quickly to clarify Blatter's comments, claiming the 78-year-old was merely stated it was impractical to organise a summer World Cup in Qatar due to the searing heat''.
''The time of year that the tournament will take place has yet to be formally decided but Blatter added that there was a high probability that the tournament would take place during the winter.''

I cannot see it being cancelled, but in hindsight FIFA have made a big mistake in awarding Qatar the WC.
The USA, Australia, South Korea and Japan, were all better candidates to host the Tournament.
What will happen to League matches if the tournament occurs in winter?
Good point DaisyNonna !
There might have to be a mid-Season break, if not the Premier League will have to carry on regardless.
it is conventional to show this clip whenever the name Blatter is mentioned

//What will happen to League matches if the tournament occurs in winter? //

currently less than one third of premiership players would be eligible for England call-up. notwithstanding the Qatar tournament is 8 years away, I wouldn't expect the proportion to change. The premier league will hardly notice.
Qatar shouldn't have got it but now that it has I think it might not be so bad. There wil be a winter break for the PL and a Christmas World Cup means a welcome antidote to the usual Noel nonsense. And Qatar being so small means at łeast it will be easier for visiting fans to get to different games.
