Before the votes for hosting rights FIFA delegates were instructed not to take the issue of racism into account. So what was the point in that campaign they ran for years?

If someone offered to pay for my flights, hotel and tickets I'd still tell them no thanks.
Good luck to the England fans - I think it will be carnage.....

Well, sport is manipulated by politicians everywhere. the problem is Putin will have the police join in and there will be no protection for innocent supporters and he will make it look like every other country's fault and not the Russians as some have said there thugs are looking for blood and they don't care who's

Will Israel qualify? I hope not. Germany will,Jesus, African teams, please God no, england, are the Ukraine in the mix? It will be like the seventies film "the warriors"
They were terrifying in the last WC, now they have home advantage.

I wouldn't safer to watch on tv and you just know Putin will turn it political He turned it political last year. We now know that government officials were involved in organising a paramilitary hooligan force,a mixture of ex military, current police, and well known hardened thugs, all sober and on steroids, to go around beating drunken English fans. Then their media reported on great victories against the english. All countries and governments do barbaric things, but the Russians take it to new levels and seem to glorify it. The Marseille incident is a million pages down near the bottom of their rap sheet of course. I won't be watching the next two world cups. Fifa corruption etc..international football stinks and I put up with premier league corruption only because of stoke

Doesn't matter how much Stan Collymore bangs on about how amazing Russia is, people will die next year and Putin will probably go out of his way to hide it
Tin foil hat on but i'm expecting many many "Have you seen this man?" posts on facebook shortly after it's all finished

I don't think there would be a lot of trouble. That would damage Russia's reputation so I'm pretty sure that Putin would tell the hooligans to behave....or alternatively work in the mines in Siberia for the next 20 years.

Have you read `The Ugly Game` By Jonathen Calvert and Heidi Blake the Times Journos that unmasked Blatter and Fifa ? Not that our own FA are (in my opinion) any better
