Once again, the leeches... sorry, the banks will benefit. The issue of revenue generation and sponsorship is irrelivent because of the huge costs Qatar will have to incur to build the infrastructure.

if liquor sale, hotel revenues, airline fares can be classified as football related then 52 percent over 12 years is a conservative estimate.

"..hosting the World Cup in Qatar will increase football related revenues across the Gulf by around $14bn, a rise of 52 percent over the next twelve years."

I find this interesting. How would this be achieved ?

Statutory warning-- World cup investments are subject to market risk. Past growth is not an indicative of future performance.

are people going on about something that is over a decade away?

Qatar will do great and they will be perfect hosts.

Look how they have grown in the last 10 years.

Let them get on with it.
