Sep Blatter hoped that Fifa would today ratify moving the 2022 World Cup, which will take place in Qatar, to the (i.e. Europe’s) winter months, however, that looks unlikely to happen. Fifa are split on the matter while Uefa president, Michel Platini, is keener to focus today’s meeting on the working conditions of migrant workers based in Qatar.
Right now Fifa have no grounds to withdraw the award of the World Cup hosting rights from Qatar, the award was made in full knowledge of the country’s climate. The treatment of migrant workers could change this. Fifa can insist that World Cup preparations do not expose workers to undue risk or inappropriate conditions. If Qatar cannot deliver within acceptable working practices the basis for legal grounds to withdraw the award has been established.
I wouldn’t book tickets for Qatar just yet.
The most enduring frustration from Tuesday night is for Charlie Mulgrew. Playing in his fourth choice position, which would never really be a choice Charlie would make, he did exactly what was asked of him against Iniesta and Xavi. His chance on 73 minutes could just as easily have bounced inside the post, which would have bestowed appropriate appreciation for the effort one of our own has put into his career.
Bring on the Ajax.
I’m curious as to who gave the £2.5m personal guarantee to lend Rangers International money, noted in their accounts this week. This is as big a financial commitment anyone has made to the Newco in some time.

If ye wanna be the Best in Any Sport..
Ye must be willing tae Sacrifice..and Suffer a wee bit tae.. and Pit aff a loata things, fur the Future..
Like..
No Being able tae Sport any of they . Tattooed Badges of Ignorance..
or
Going out Oan the Ran Dan.. Two, Three..or Four Times a Week.. Drinking and Wenching tae the Early hoors in the Glesca Fleshpots.
Nae Smoking Eether.. and It goes withoot saying but .,, Ah wull Say it Anyway..
None o they Funny Cigarettes,, or Sniffing any of that Whit Pooder.
Noo, Ah am no Accusing any o oor Present Celtic Lads of Daeing Any o these things..
Ah am Just Laying doon the Law.
Ye must get Serious.. Damn Serious.
Noo, Ah dinna need any convincing , aboot how serious Barca’s Approach tae the Game is..
It is there fur awe tae See.
Howevahhhhhhh..
Ah am afraid Ah simply dae not get the same Impression,when Ah Consider how serious,in their Approach tae the Sport, is this Celtic Team.

Qatar 2022?
Yes makes a lot of sense. A country with a rich football heritage!
One of the members of the FIFA Executive Comittee who voted for Qatar was Platini.
Shortly thereafter the Qataris purchased PSG.
Coincidence?
Naw!
Lovely people – the Qatari rulers, and Platini.
HH!!
