it is a joke that they were awarded the tournament in the first place, or perhaps nobody thought if it might be difficult to hold a sports event in one of the hottest places on the planet during its hottest months

Not really bothered as Wales won't make a World Cup anyway. Its a good thing for us if we're still in the Premier League then as all the top teams players go away and play whilst our lesser players are refreshed and ready for the second half of the season after the break. That trip to Qatar is going to be exhausting for some players and theres no way they'll be going straight back into PL games unless of course their side performs badly and gets knocked out early.

Fifa say no decision has been made regarding 2022 world cup.
They'll make a decision after the brazil world cup.
They'll make a decision after the brazil world cup.

of course we might be one of the big sides ourselves in 8 years time.

Let's just hope Wales doesn't repeat Norway's "golden age". (1992-99)
Enjoy the best players you've ever had in a national squad all at once all perfectly synchronized with the best generation of France, Brazil, Croatia and one of the best for Italy... And meet two of those teams early in the world cup... (But hey we beat one, and the other beat us 1-0 with an offside goal! Brazil and Italy respectively)
Let's hope Wales start rocking a golden generation just as Spain and Germany die down a little bit and France/ England are still crap
