Yeah but they're broadcasting it so they're hypocrites... at least that's what I assume someone will reply to you saying

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

Forlan was awesome.
Leaving stupid Ronaldo saga behind I am all in WC mood. Lets goooooo!!!
Suarez becoming most wanted in the entire continent was hilarious too.
I think they have pitched it correctly.
It would have been worse if they ignored it.
What’s that weird clanging sound?
They’re probably still building the stadium.
Just feels odd atm

Think it’s a chair that’s dodgy
It needs to be covered but we’re 40 minutes away from KO and there’s zero football talk on the BBC.
I think after today I will get into it.
It might be deliberate. From tomorrow it will be full speed ahead.
If you are hoping for any insight on the Qatar or Ecuador teams from these pundits on BBC, you don't want more than 10 minutes of it!
Apparantly it’s only 40p per ride on the metro in Doha
That’s because the US is going to host and need their viewers to get into this competition.At some point they will bring up the bad points but it will at the studio by a non footballing analyst but wont go to far into it as they need to generate interest in the football ahead of their own World Cup. None of these play by play or football analysts will bring it up. Everything is just peachy.
Oh OK, I guess that's why he wore the glove? But if so, then why not just make them enter opposite sides?
That's me sold then. Fantastic it was awarded to Qatar!
It was the same on here and he hadn't even joined Liverpool yet
They are probably trying to get this stuff out of the way, to be fair, to avoid any flack.
Ridiculous. Do they think transport is a public service over there or something?
Finally we get to football.

Expected more from Casper the friendly ghost. Another sell-out.
yeah. Just the fact it's held in November, pundits looking miserable (understandable), the whole controversy around it all, just feels a bit 'meh' atm

Shearer was right when he said it was supposed to be in the summer with air conditioned stadiums and air conditioned fan parks and here we in November, every league disrupted in a country that is too small to host it.
Really? Unbelievable comment
Really? We're still talking politics and corruption on Irish TV.
Well they're unlikely to speak about the Irish squad going into the tournament..
Well he did pay handsomely for the tournament.The acoustics are terrible
What was that shirt signing thing?
Oh they're talking about England rather than the football?
Looks like they’ve got a rent-a-crowd section
So Saudis get it 2030?
We don't need to generate interest. We sell out 100,000 seat stadiums with outrageous ticket prices for pre-season friendlies for European clubs.. There will be no lack of interest in a North American world cup, regardless of what happens here.
Infantino sitting next to a bloke who ordered the assassination of a journalist. Standard.
Yeah this all makes me sick, but I have to watch because, you know, world cup football.
Looks like quite a few fans are still downing their Bud zeros before kick off. They're missing the action!
Snooker on bbc2.
wonder when we’ll see a Saudi WC
