Qatar World Cup
Qatar World Cup, Football fans might boycott the 2022 World Cup in Qatar if beer is not going to be made widely available, says the Premier League chairman Sir Dave Richards.
The middle Eastern country severely restricts the consumption of alcohol however this is likely not to go down well with football fans, for whom a pint and watching the beautiful game go hand in hand.
“In our country and in Germany, we have a culture. We call it ‘We would like to go for a pint’ and that pint is a pint of beer. It is out culture as much as your culture is not drinking,” Richards said at the International Sport Security Conference in Doha.
“If you don’t do something about it you are burying your head in the sand. You might be better off saying ‘don’t come’” he added.
The Qatar championships already courted controversy, firstly over the tournament being awarded to them in the first place which caused much surprise around the world, and secondly for FIFA president Sepp Blater comments about the country’s intolerance of homoS-EX-uality, about which he said that the football fans should ‘refrain from S-EX-ual activity’ while attending the tournament.
