Soo... apparently the Qataris are paying migrant workers to spectate their games...

Qatar be like, money can buy football

It's comical but wrong forum.

They paid and transported Africans all the way from Africa, to cheer for them and fill the stadium for last Qatar-Iran game in June where we won 0-1. They are disgusting!

Worst thing is that they have tried to eliminate Iran by selling out to Uzbekistan, and they failed miserably. I hope they lose every game 0-8 when they host the World Cup 2022.

Lol, this isn't new...when I was a kid growing up in Dubai- I used to watch Al Ahli's games when Karimi used to play for them and half the stadium was migrant workers.

They pay them 50 dirhams and provide them snacks and transportation to and from the stadium.

I bet if FIFA finally cracks down on the number of foreigners wearing qatari jerseys, qatar will pay their women to sleep with famous soccer players in hopes of creating a decent player that is at least part qatari.

Anyone who follows Asian football knows this.

Why do dogs lick themselves? Because they can

On one hand we have Qatar, a small country which is putting a lot of money and (dirty) effort in promoting soccer in their country. On the other hand we have Iran whose government is doing everything to destroy the sport. Meanwhile we sit here and make fun of the Arabs, who btw beat us in every club level - with or without foreigners watching the games. Our most popular club is ranked 33rd in Asia.

As much as I don't like the arabs in general, I think we should look in the mirror sometimes.

When you are sitting on a shitty piece of land(eating bananas) that happens to hold the worlds third largest gas reserve, I guess even a monkey thinks about transforming into an ape! This is the story of Qataris. A little piece of land the world calls "country" that holds about 90,000 indigenous tribal Bedouins, and about 2 million foreign workers and lots and lots of penis shaped towers!

Upon arriving at the stadiums these workers had their passports confiscated so they could never leave the stadium thus ensuring all matches would have spectators for eternity.

Don't forget they are also hosting the handball world cup next month. In all fairness, when it comes to this, they ain't doing bad. Only the way they do it and get it done can still be debated..
