Europe and North America not allowed to bid along with Africa . South America nit got the stadiums apart from Brasil who have had it recently . Prob reluctant for Australia and NZ to have it has it clashes with AFL who refuse to move in their matches .China human rights . Saudis can throw as much money at it as they like. FIFA is just as corrupt as it was when they said they where gonna clean up their act .
South America couldn't bid for 2034 either due to having 3 matches in 2030 so it had to be Asia or Oceania.
You’d enjoy it more with a big pile of cash next to you though even if it’s just to buy more weed and to upgrade from Dairy Milk to Lindor.
Yeah that’ll come into it for sure. No time zone is perfect but Saudi is three hours ahead of us and six or so ahead of South America so works quite well for matches that I guess will be played late local time and better for China than having it in Europe for the earlier kick-offs anyway.
