I'm sorry but no way would I travel to Russia 2018. First of all, the whole bidding process was corrupt.
Secondly, I don't really want my passport and Wallet nicked by corrupt officials.
And thirdly, even though I'm pretty 'handy', I don't really enjoy being beaten with poles and chairs whilst the government proclaims that I'm an English thug who deserves it.

However, after my rant I may fill in your survey - in the interests of academic integrity.

Red and Blue Army!

My sentiments exactly. Those Russians at the Euros were out of line. As were the comments from the Russian politicians who basically refused to condemn their actions. Imagine what it'll be like in Russia. No thanks

Some of his guys are on the way round right now

Red and Blue Army!

I have been avoiding (as far as possible) coverage of the Olympics - nothing at all to do with the athletes, though. The IOC is just FIFA with different letters, and its whole system is corrupt to its core. More than that, the games end up being an extraordinary windfall for local officials and their favourite contractors, while the local (poor) population gets royally screwed.

The next summer Olympics is in Dubai. The winter games are going back Beijing in 2022. Seriously, the Olympics needs a single, purpose-built venue (one each for summer and winter). The only reason to move it around the world is to keep the tsunami of under-the-table cash flowing.

I say this because it's going to be the same for the next two World Cups. I cannot countenance supporting - by my viewership - the corruption and death that is swirling around these two events. I certainly will not be attending either for the same reason and also due to the significant personal risk. The dangers in Russia are well understood, but no one knows what will happen in 2022 when the world comes to party in a country where the fun police like to beat the s*** out of drunks, punish-rape promiscuous women, execute gays and lop the limbs off alleged miscreants.

Cities are getting wise to the IOC. One of the reasons the winter games is in Beijing in 2022 is because the only two bids were from China and Kazakhstan (China won 44 to 40). Norway, Sweden, Poland and Ukraine all considered bidding, and then peaced-the-f*** out. My hope is that the same happens with FIFA and the World Cup, because I won't be watching until it's cleaned up and can be viewed without having to abandon moral decency.

Also, England are s*** so why bother?

We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football.

I think that the world should boycott the 2018 world cup because the Russians are bombing the feck out of hospitals, orphanages and homes in Syria.

It's a disgrace what's happening there and no-one will get involved because they're scared of the Russians.

Tokyo.

You couldn't seriously have one permanent host for each games, that would be ridiculous.

No one's under any illusions that Rio couldn't afford either the World Cup or Olympics, that they'll massively lose money or that they lost lives trying to achieve it.

No one will be surprised by the death count in Qatar by the time the 2022 world cup rolls around too.

Russia couldn't care about the costs, for them both events are about prestige and being shown on the world stage.

Sydney, London and Beijing were fine. Athens and Rio could never afford them to start with.

Optimistic as ever
