Apparently 6500 workers have died building the stadiums, workers have shitty conditions and some of them are not getting paid.
Why is this acceptable?

When GF died and the months of BLM started, the world was not large enough.
Why havent I seen a single football player mentioning this? Where are the boycotts? These lives don't matter?
Rest in Peace SE13 :(

They’re Muslim lives I’d guess, we all know no one gives a f**k about them unfortunately. Said it before, maybe things will change in the future once black people feel equal but all these people who are out marching about equality are such hypocrites, they don’t give a f**k when it doesn’t suit them. People still have some stigma that Muslim = terrorist imo.

Same with the Uighur’s in China, hardly any media coverage and hardly any of your influencers, who were so loud about BLM, saying or doing anything about it.

Only one difference...

This is nothing unusual and hasn't just come about with the Qatar WC.

I worked in the ME and saw migrant workers (mostly from the Indian subcontinent) out in the blazing heat doing construction work every day. If one of them dies they put it down to heart failure or some other thing.

They treat these people like slaves all over the ME. Have done for many decades. Dubai was built on the back of these people.

Not sure if i agree buddy. I think it has more to do with money than anything else to be honest. And the fact that if teams wouldnt go, it would affect their players carreer. Which is only so f***ing hypocrite of the players.

When BLM happend, a football talkshow here in the netherlands was being critized of the goals of the BLM movement. Wijnaldum and van dijk were apparently so angry they urged everyone to boycott the tv show. Yet, next year they willbe the one cheering in stadiums that is built on human lives.

Any player going to qatar becomes part of the problem and has blood on their hands tbh.

I did not know this.

I was only aware that a few workers had died during construction. I was thinking of maybe 5 workers at most, which is alreadt f***ing sad.

But 6500?!?! I stillcan not believe it. Maybe i am naive, but surely the worldcup in qatar must and will be boycotted?!

One British expat I knew in Bahrain had an Indian guy working for him full time at his home doing cleaning, gardening and just about anything else. This guy would have parties at the weekend and the Indian guy would work behind a small bar serving drinks. He lived in a little house on their property.

He approached the British guy one day and asked if he could have an advance on his salary so he could buy a sewing machine. His plan was to take rough bails of material from the market and edge them all off nicely so they could sell for more. Of course the merchants would pay him for that. The British guy just bought him the machine. The guy was working day and night to earn extra money.

He was apparently working to support an extended family back home that included his wife & kids and both sets of parents.

It's what a lot of those guys out there are doing. That's why they don't complain.

It really is disgusting that this WC is in Qatar - complete corruption.
How the tournament is not being boycotted by many nations is quite unbelievable, but at the very least England should be leading by example and pulling out of the tournament.

Of course it's there by corruption, it was Blatter's dirty crony committee who took the bribes for it.

All the more reason to put Bamford in.

He's been better than Watkins.
