Thin end of the wedge ??

God forbid,

Brian , I thought you'd started a discussion on Golf 😁😁. 

No. I think it’s all to do with holding the World Cup in Dubai. I can’t recall the whys and wherefore, but it was planned a few years ago when Dubai won the bribery (my apologies), the bid, to host it.☹️

I'd never do that, Trellis - I just putter along happily

As for the World Cup, TTDA  - Think it might just be an excuse but we'll only find out in a further years time, when the next load of fixtures is published.

{ Thinks  , Might have to start a WCexit campaign  }

Thank god money doesnt talk where sport is concerned ?

Only at your convenience Brian .🚽😀.

Thrrrrrpt

The Dubai World Cup is going to run from Nov into Dec. Slap bang in the middle of most European league fixtures. It’s really well thought out by FIFA.🤬

Interesting........Michel Platini has been arrested. Daren’t say more. It Qatar World Cup, not Dubai by the way, apologies for my mistake.

All Forgiven TTDA, I won't rub sand into the wounds
