This is some corrupt bullshit. Qatar media reporting they'd won it before FIFA members had come out from voting. Now this:

Twitter - Grant Wahl's twitter

Finally let in auditorium for announcement. FIFA ExCo voters done casting ballots, milling in front. Yfrog Photo : yfrog.com/3wu9x01j - Shared by grantwahl

Qatari delegation members getting handshakes & some hugs from FIFA voters. Hmmmmm....

For fling sake. If Qatar flinging win this an investigation needs to be held about how the Qatar media 'knew'.

Matt, how was the Australian presentation I missed it earlier.

It was okay, Lowry was very passionate. Had a cartoon Kangaroo though lol but it showed off all thats' beautiful in this country. Had like nothing about football though, just scenery which in reality most of it is hundreds and miles from where football would be played.

So not too bad, but not great like England or even Russia.

So tweaking nervous man.

Russia got 2018. Lol, some days I'm glad the ICC aren't quite as bent as FIFA.

Corrupt. Absolutely corrupt.

"I hope it's on both sides cause I don't know this..." Piss off Blatter. How obvious do you want to make it? Media knew both winners from up to thirty minutes before Blatter took the stage. THIRTY MINUTES. Furious.

Well FIFA have just killed football in this country. I'm indescribably heart-broken.

Well i'm pissed off. The ''unconfirmed'' results were correct. How is Russia better than us at hosting a world cup on football terms . Apparently Qatar got 2022 because the president of Asian Football wants to become FIFA president. Typical corrupt Fifa.

fearsome tweak off Sepp Blatter

Worked 9 till 6 today, then going out drinking for a mates birthday tonight and then walking home about 3 miles in the snow at about 2 or 3 am just to catch some of the cricket. Dedicated yet stupid cricketLAD.

FIFA, what a farce. What a waste of sleep too.

Still gutted. Boycotting it for sure, I think I'll go to European Championships instead.

That'll hurt their ticket sales.

That'll hurt their ticket sales.

Indeed.

Nah, I'm just really devastated. I had hoped to go to England for 2018, and have the 2022 here. Probably won't go to either now, but I'd love to go to a European Championships.

And trust me, I won't be the only one who was thinking about going to one of these World Cup's who wont be now.

Who doesn't want to go to Qatar for holiday

Qatar, what a joke!

I can understand Russia getting 2018 as they do have a very good following of fans, haven't hosted a world cup before and have decentish facilities.

Qatar though? Seriously tweaked up.
