This World Cup...Christ. The Blatter effect. Ridiculous ineptitude in officiating, borderline corrupt. Stadiums unfinished. Locals restless and being suppressed by the military. Empty seats galore. It's all fecking disgusting really. And we haven't even seen Manaus yet. The ultimate white elephant stadium that is only useful for the world cup. Yet it isn't even finished for it's singular purpose; and by all accounts the pitch is appalling.
