COYW Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 It's going to give teams which don't have many international players a big advantage, as they will effectively be getting a winter break. Some of the other teams could also lose players to injury at a World Cup half way through the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter MickyD Posted March 1, 2015 Site Supporter Share Posted March 1, 2015 But a summer world cup does exactly the same. A player plays a season, then a close-season then a season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOWTUN BAKED Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I got off a plane in Qatar in December a few years back. Â With in seconds I felt like a bucket of water had been thrown over me. Piss wet through with sweat. Â No time of the year is a good time to be playing football out there. Â It was a farce when it was announced & the farce continues to escalate.

Â Â Fair dos, I've noticed that, stuff is hard to find these days, if you could remember a memorable phrase from a thread "hiding in the boot" or "heavy cummer with poor directional control" for example, you'd be apt to find any thread using Google, no longer the case now...

Site Supporter Spider Posted September 25, 2015 Site Supporter Share Posted September 25, 2015 It might actually make the World Cup vaguely interesting, because the last one was bobbins.

Â It's a can of worms, and that's before the slave labour, hundreds of worker deaths, corruption etc... In my opinion, the F.A should boycott it. Â Unless we win it, then it was a brilliant decision.
