Should never have been awarded, but it's probably too late for anyone to boycott it now, unfortunately.

I personally don't feel comfortable with the World Cup being in Qatar for three key reasons.

1. Their Human rights issues
2. The horrible weather that will seriously be bad for players health playing in those conditions
3. Sepp Blatter

Well, the World Cup is my favourite sporting event so I don't want it cancelled.

It feels a bit weird at the moment having it in the winter.

there are a lot of players and teams who don't like the idea of Qatar. If someone decides to take a stand then it could all collapse very quickly. I previously would have said that nothing could stop it happening, but we live in such strange times these days that literally anything could happen

Wow, now I'm glad Italy is not playing.
It sounds awful

I've thought hard on this question.

I hate the idea it is being held in this Nation.
I do feel for all the players and fans who look forward to this event.

However I came down on the side of yes to cancelling it.
It much more than likely won't be however.
