This kind of comment drives me crazy. We get one WC every four years. I've maybe got 5 or

6 more in my life time to enjoy and the last two venues, imposed on me by FIFA have been shocking.

I don't see why we should be deprived of seeing our team because of a disastrous decision made by others and I reserve my right to follow the event and to criticise Fifa and Qatar without being told I'm just virtual signalling.

If we can embarrass them, annoy them, 'disrespect' them in any way, I say, go for it.
