>saudi arabia is the only valid bid for the '34 WC thanks to the continent rule
>a stadium on top of the line (yes that line) is an official entry in their bid
I wonder how they'll cope around this
most of the stadiums they included in their bid don't even exist yet and they're all retarded megalomaniac petrodollar white elephants

>>149723461 (OP)
i keep hearing saudi is actually broke
that their welfare state is about to collapse but they are planning this so it might be good if they pull it off

>>149723547
some of these stadiums (that don't exist yet) will be used officially for the '27 Asia cup so we'll see if they're serious or not

>>149723581
a grim timeline with only 2 years left
and in the winter too again
expect rigging to end all rigging

>>149723461 (OP)
Looking at the designs of the stadiums they want to build, I wonder how anybody could even consider for a second that these projects are legit. FIFA doesn't have to consider this, they don't give a shit and just want bribes - they got them, so they're out
Qatar already pulled off a major scam with their 2022 stadium designs, but it looks like the Saudis will try their hardest to make them look serious and reliable
That country basically has an infinite money glitch, but they still don't seem to reach a lot apart from these shady megalomaniac projects

>>149723547
saudi arabia doesnt hand out money to its regular citzens for nothing, you are thinking of (some of) the emirates
saudi arabia is actually a quite developed state with a proper middle class and welfare in the form of social security like unemplayment benefits, public health system, etc
i think it was dubai that fucked up their finances with their overambitious/retarded building projects

>>149723803
Lmao

I have a lot of saudis in my uni course
they are fucking useless morons to a man, constantly late, constantly sleeping in class, talking, asking dumb fucking questions
funnily enough one of them had an argument with some white guy in the class who must have insulted them somehow and the saudi started saying "we are not dumb, we are not dumb, we are the best in saudi, we are the smartest in saudi"

Yeah buddy that's what scares me that you might be.

They're the same in unis here, they make the average Egyptoid look like Einstein

They are actually building a shit ton of projects right now and have already finished huge complexes and cities. And yes, they are heavily relying on western expertise. The stadiums will get built.

China is also about to collapse. Just two more weeks.

We deserve to host a World Cup
It would be so good

How much did Conmebol got for this? Literal they sold it to fucking Saudi Arabia for one single fucking match in Argentina.

>>149725356
Can't play in December, sorry.

>>149725356
you literally would have if not for the retarded levels of corruption in fifa

I recommend browsing through the regions tabs of this website to see some of the ludicrous megaprojects our Saudi pals are cooking up

>>149725356
Not sure how great it would be, but you definitely deserve a shot. Unfortunately for you, your time zones are terrible for Europe, and you share your confederation with various nations FIFA likes to deepthroat. Anything else about you is very promising: the sports culture, the infrastructure, even the weather in June/July, I assume

Reminder that Australia was bullied into abandoning their bid 'for the good of the federation'.

dead sport

>>149725356
You would have won the rights to host it in 2022 if it wasn't for Qatar bribery

>>149723461 (OP)
And if they continue the continental rotation rule, 2038 can't be in Europe, Africa, South America and Asia
Where are they gonna host it? USA again?

Ding ding ding ding
You guessed it

why would you play in summer (in australia) for a winter sport like football? It is actually retarded to play the WC in the the summer in the Northern Hemisphere due to the heat so should play in Dec (winter) for the Northern hemisphere and June/July (winter) in the southern hemisphere
