TalkSport is the only broadcaster brave enough to give their real opinions on this World Cup. The coverage in England is ridiculously bad.
And this is why many countries in the world hate English and American propaganda
Absolutely.
And all three pundits here.
Keown on the stadium alcohol ban being a good thing (possible reason why Scotland have banned alcohol in stadiums for 42yrs+)
Simon on how qatar was part of the British empire till the 70`s and how footballers haven't a clue what they're virtue signalling about (otherwise wouldn't they highlight slave labor style conditions used to manufacture england football kits?)
And souness in calling out fifa sponsors - Coca-Cola just by themselves cause misery to millions by taking over water supplies in 3rd world african countries)
@@tsmay4598 I'm assuming they'll jump on the bandwagon on an ukraine world cup 2030. Ukraine where gay marriage is illegal, lgbt community is regularly persecuted, all opposition political parties are banned, all non-state media is banned and migrants from russia in kherson have been murdered on mass since 2014 :)
Well done talk sports!
@@tsmay4598 Why not research each and every point I've made and present evidence on the contrary (mainstream media propaganda puff pieces don't count)

I don’t think people who live in a county who’s kids don’t know if they are boys or girls, have grand parents in care homes, spend more time with a dog than their own mothers should ever speak about somebody else’s culture . ❤
Facts
The British public have been cancelled. Absolutely shocking that the BBC 'censored' the opening ceremony of a World Cup.
The BBC that covered up Jimmy Saville. Yeah I'll listen to them on morality.
The Biased Broadcasting Corporation
BBC is pure propaganda on all fronts. Just like RT Today etc.
The Islamophobic collaboration
@@wezza1984 😂😂😂😂
Bbc is disgusting for not showing the opening ceremony. The disrespect is outrageous and im with simon on this one. How dare they try to teach the whole world about morals?!
I’m afraid that sums up the decline in standards of the BBC.
While they allowed young girls to be abused, vile channel that should be banned all around the world
It was awful, i wish nobody had shown it
They’ll tell you what you think and be happy
R u daft in the head? This isn't politics when its resulted from football! If migrant workers were dying over there NOT because of building stadiums for a world cup, fair enough, but these workers died building stadiums for a world cup! How on gods green earth can we seperate it from the football, when it resulted from football??? Forget the gay and womens rights and beer etc, THOUSANDS of people have died from decisions made by Fifa and Qatar, DIRECTLY!
It was one of the best opening ceremony ever. Sorry some people in UK 🇬🇧 didn't see it thanks to BBC. Shame BBC.
Thank you guys,reading alot of your comments, i am really touched.Being a british born muslim,its so nice that there are people out there who are honest.
Agreed .. the general hypocrisy is beyond ridiculous and the double standards are disgraceful. They don’t acknowledge the even greater human rights issues in the lands they support or fear. ( not condoning any)
IN FACT !! Why don’t UK media etc see their own GOVERNMENT is contravening Human Rights with their blatantly racist polity to send non white refugees to Rwanda
I’ve got really sick of reading the holier than thou Guardian articles especially the German v Japan one. Interestingly enough the author turned off the btl comments section.
Me too! British born Bangladeshi 🇧🇩

It's ludicrous to preach to other countries for profiting from appalling worker conditions when we're happy to buy clothes, electronics, and other goods made in exactly the same conditions as long as they're in other countries - and how dare they not show the opening ceremony while espousing the importance of free speech!
Not to forget the billions of gas coming from the middle east over thousands if not millions of workers corps …
Good point.
That’s an easy way to look at it. Actually we are the ones that invaded Iraq to steal oil. Killing over a million children in the main part of conflict. Then we talk about workers rights? Ludicrous.
Your doing it right now. You're making excuses to ignore the obvious, just so can watch the games without a guilty conscience.
I'll gladly pass on watching this world cup. Gotta hold true to some principles.
Hypocrisy at its finest
I say qatar has done a fabulous job I've thoroughly enjoyed it love watching fans from around the world sad the opening ceremony was not shown
The funny thing about this is no one can actually remember ever watching and opening ceremony of the World Cup. The opening ceremonies we remember the Olympics because that’s what they are about, but by the BBC not showing the opening ceremony, it’s brought attention to the opening ceremony of the football World Cup itself.
I’m with Simon, I wanted to watch the opening ceremony, why should the BBC deny me that opportunity?
just watch it on youtube mate you're already on the website it's very easy
Cancel the license.
What the BBC ensured that the British public doesn't hear by cutting the opening ceremony: "We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another." ~ Qur'an (Surah Al Hujurat)
It's like they are deciding what you can and can't watch just like how China says that to Uyghurs, Turkic nations, Tibetians etc. Just like Simon in video said about Ozil and lets' put Benzema,Mbape,Pogba,Mane etc. When they score goals for their respected teams they are "LEGENDS OF THE TEAM" when they don't score goals they are Arabs, dutty Mozlems... etc etc... Just hypocrisy ..
@@Enforcedcraftnot the Uyghurs again… 🥱🥱you are perfectly brainwashed by the MSM.
FINALLY! Simon is a legend.... how arrogant are we that we think we can tell another country how they should live their lives!! The UK doesn't mind these countries buying up our football teams, property , half of London but now they want to virtual signal.
100%
I also hate it when war torn countries Olympic players are banned because they are Representing their countries Every Sportsman and women should be able to compete politics shouldn't come into it 🌻🌏
Simon is the goat I like how he understands that every country in the world is different and should be approached with a level of respect and decency. Football is a game played across the world in different nations and cultures. But the game we all love is still the same.
World Cup is usually a time and chance too embrace and enjoy different cultures, so the BBC deciding to not show the opening ceremony was so disappointing and quite frankly pathetic from them.
If UK ever host the WC, I hope Qatar will also not screen opening ceremony
I agree with this 100%. Tired of this self righteousness. If you don't like what's going on so much then why are England taking part in it?
exactly
pound notes mate
England cant say no to the middle east... especially when they bank role thr country
The UK is literally selling off London to Qatar they own 63,000 acres of land in the U.K., and they’re here bashing them at the same time it’s hilarious. They own the shard, Canary Wharf, big stakeholders in Sainsbury’s, Heathrow, British airways, they own harrods, etc… and 20% of oil comes from there too. Very baffling, the hypocrisy is through the roof
@@wxvy3177 for real for a country which is literally practically owned by Qatar they are rly going off with these double standards
OMG. The way I was pissed off yesterday because of the propaganda pushing of the BBC. I was thinking I can't be the only one. Then I come across this. Thank you for voicing what I reckon the majority were thinking. Round of applause Simon. I don't usually agree with most of what you say but this was spot on.
Normally I hate the BBC's virtue signalling, but this time I was pleased to be honest. Whatever the rights and wrongs of it, I don't see why a country like Qatar should be on our screen using the opening ceremony as a massive advertorial for them.
@@jamesjarrett52 I understand what you're saying but it's a world cup opening ceremony, why not show it and give people the option to chose whether they want to watch it or not. Why make the decision for us. I'm also a firm believer in my house, my rules. Taking a morale high ground like you're a perfect person based on your own personal beliefs is outright ignorant and hypocritical.
Gary Linekar is bad
you ain't the only one mate it was outragous. i thought i was watching an episode of panorama ffs. it didn't feel like the opening of a world cup. woke gary lineker and the woke bbc doing what they do best. virtue signal .
@@jamesjarrett52 but it's ok for the BBC to celebrate the Eurovision song contest in Israel with no mention of the daily oppression of occupied Palestinians
Was bloody livid that the BBC didn’t show the opening ceremony! Instead we get a lesson on morals from Gary Lineker & others! Hmm could have refused to go if they were that bothered, refused the pay too! I pay a license fee and they have no right to NOT show it!
Totally agree when he said sport is what we use to escape from all this nonsense and its true I hear about this crap at work at family events when I go out with friends I and billions of others just want an escape I can't even watch the news anymore because to be honest it isn't news
I worked in Qatar and I can tell you the country's people were great they went out of their way to make me feel welcome. On my first day in the country I was deposited in a company house and I ran out of cigarettes, I had no local currency and when I went looking for a currency converter to buy some. A local who was washing his car politely informed me that they would all be closed as it was the Sabbath. He then presented me with £25 worth of local money to get my cigarettes, I don't think that gesture would happen in many places. And yes I paid him back 2 days later, and I've been off the smokes for 13 years..
Sabbath? you mean it was Friday?
@@CSGOMatches i think he means Jummah, Friday prayer.. pretty sure Shabbath is a Jewish thing, or am I wrong?
Good for you, mate. Tony Blair didn't bomb my house so he's fine by me.
@@sacred1827 Don't be such a Karen, Go to Qatar and see the real Qatar instead of being a sheep.
@@CSGOMatches he mean Saturday, in Arabic sabath is Saturday,Friday is a jumat.
They should all just wear armbands saying, "I support the latest thing"
the fact they so easily pulled out of wearing them should tell you everything, yet instead the social media addicts are angry at Qatar. honestly the world is so stupid nowadays
🤭😃😃 well said jjtotheb
support respect for others and other's faith than being an ass to the whole country
lol i wish i could like your comment 110 times
They brag Freedom of opinion and expression Then they impose their moral decay on the world Whoever regards the West as a democracy is mistaken in believing that they are still dictators but in an advanced form
Thank you Simon for speaking the truth.
Roiigght. Like assuming these football players dont understand or can explain what they believe in and onoy giving silence on the topics? Thats a little presumptious and condenscending for my taste. Just another pundit crying about other men's careers and how he didnt get enough icing on his cake when it comes the game of football.
The only person in the media I've come across who has said one of the most important facts - Qatar was part of the british empire till the 70's.
So criticising their rules by nature is criticising the part we've played in shaping theirs
Apart from the "BBC is funded by the taxpayer" bit, yes he is telling the truth.
The BBC is funded by license payers (a choice to be had there) and by sales of their productions to non BBC outlets. There is no choice for the majority of us when it comes to taxation.
@@georgerubypoppy1063 of course the BBC is funded by taxpayer money. It is state media outlet the mouthpiece for the government. How is not taxpayer money.
The bigots truth yeah?
The opening was so beautiful!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Huge respect for talksports to go against the grain.
I'm not always in agreement with Simon, but on everything he said 100% agree, specially on the bbc not showing the opening that's wrong, who made that choice for us who wanted to see it
I don’t understand, I literally watched it on the bbc with that Korean kid singing and that Arab ghost thing they had.
@@johnthompson457 maybe bbc international? Or maybe bbc in different parts of UK are showing different? Or maybe they don't show from the start? Or are you suggesting Simon is talking nonesense? Who's right here?

This is about football. Not about social issues
BBC missed the best FIFA opening ceremony ever, Go Qatar✊🏻
Lots of respect for Simon.
The opening ceremony was the only reason I got my wife to agree to watch the 1st game. Its always a spectacle
BBC is funded by public taxes. You have a right to question them on that and for ruining experice of millions after they paid public money to broadcast it only to take it down.
Thank you Simon for speaking for the majority. Keep politics out of football like the legendary old days
I am now so grateful these type of people were not around when my country hosted the tournament in 1994 and all my friends and I had some of the best times of our lives!
@@dondappapumpumslappa8051 there needs to be a separate new sport dedicated for all virtue signalling. So we can be like look if you have a problem you wanna express go play that sport over there where you can spend hours talking politics and play a game for a few minutes 👉 they let you cover both arms with armbands and you can kneel whenever you feel like it even in the middle of a game. KEEP FOOTBALL PURE
@@stephenmason9527 you watch football every four years 😂
@@docdre2729 I watch games every day, because I was allowed to grow a love and enjoyment for the game that wasn't intentionally hindered by political bickering and grandstanding.
Are you upset by Remembrance Day tributes at football games and the playing of the national anthem at cup finals? Or is it only the politics you don't like that should stay out of football?
The opening ceremony was so amazing, they welcomed every one so nicly, katar introduced them selve thire culture and the religion, the were so jenerouse to shar with every one, the provided things to make poeple comftable as posible, no fight, no drunk poeple, no disrespect, welcome as thires,
In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act. Right on the money Simon 👌

Did they pay you to say this
@@RESPECTpine_ppleONpizza good question
lol 😂 fake fans. All Bangladesh people wearing England or German kits.
FINALLLLYYYY!!! Thank you Simon!! Let those countries manage their own affairs. The West has been ridiculous! Why not focus on giving Afghanistan their money to feed their people or being accountable for what they did to Iraq after they found nothing that they said was there? All these are recent things that the West has done.
East is East and west is West .
Two cultures are too different to exist alongside each other. The ceremony and the organization is the best ever. Thanks Qatar 🇶🇦
Well said Simon, no place for politics in sport.
Totally agree with Simon for a change. BBC screwed up big time clowns
This is a world cup not UK or western cup so the world is a full of diverse people in terms of culture &norms it's a shame to see how the media is behaves
You r right , these western media and countries are just hypocrite.
I agree. If only that same mindset was kept when the shoe is on the other foot though.
No one said it was the UK cup. Do you think its right people can be arrested for being themselves? Its fucking disgrace it was ever awarded to Qatar.
@@-j308 What the hell are you even talking about?
@@esinach respect their culture, but they don't respect ours when they're in the west. Simple conclusion to make nobheqd
Totally agree shouldn't force people to go along with any narrative
How do I watch the full ceremony??
This is a guy that doesn’t care what people think and speaks the truth the rest are all being told what to say and how to think
So if someone doesn’t have the same opinion as you they are indoctrinated and you are a free mind?
No it wasn't
@@jamesleon4883 Hmm that's generally how the BBC pundits are behaving over there , they like to make out they are the free , brave souls ... by wearing armbands and T shirts which espouse pointless virtue signalling . Nope the real brave ones are the Iran team as they could face serious consequences for what they did and they aren't doing it for likes on social media or a thumbs up , and as for the BBC refusing to show the opening ceremony... Well they should stop pretending to be neutral or impartial .
Thank You Simon and TalkSport. It is the reason why I fancy the non-European teams for this World Cup.
Sober English fans are the sweetest I made a lot of friends unlike in the euro people were looking to fight and trash talk and chaotic
I've never really listened to Tallsport prior to hearing Jordan by chance. He is a total breath of fresh air, common sense and no pc bull. He's spot on here and he's the reason I listen and subscribe.
"At what pace and by who's standards ? By the standards of the west are you outta your mind , this is a mulism country"
Couldn't agree more with him . 👏
Earned a fan Talksport. Thank god a channel has finally had the balls to say exactly what I've been saying and actually getting into heated arguments about, this whole time. Word for word what Simon said, is the way I think. Couldn't have communicated it better myself. The sheer arrogance of our countries leading agenda pushers and a lot of the citizens, is quickly sadly pushing me out of love with the country. I just do not agree with the way ideologies are being forced upon us and I'm not willing to sit back and keep my mouth shut. Qatar is a wonderful place to live, I've been assured this repeatedly by friends who've lived there for years. They work hard, have their beliefs, stuck by them and aren't so weak to be ruled over by the excruciating amount of bullsh*t narratives pushed by our leaders and media.
I'm afraid, at 31 years old, my time in this country is close to coming to an end. The ideologies do not suit me anymore.
I feel you.
The good news is, the next world cup is gonna be in the usa. I'm sure the bbc will have no reason whatsoever to boycott the opening ceremony and talk to amnesty international in their f'ing studio.
Good on ya fella 👍🏾👏🏾
Pls!
My daughter is 17 years old, can you tell her the truth about Qatar and the fake news in the media, she has changed her mind because she has been watching fake news from the media.
Thing is they're not wrong about what they're saying. They should treat workers, women, people who are gay transgender etc better but we are wrong for trying to force them when we had a similar record of mistreating the same people until quite recently. We should encourage these countries to change but at their own pace like we did
@@rhyschadwick3269 they're not wrong by our standards and beliefs. That's the thing. I agree they aren't wrong about treating people better... but yeah as I said, by our standards. Who says we know better.

Speaking the right thing on right time needs alot of courage.
You guys have it all .
Suddenly they realised people on the other side of the world see thing differently.
That alcohol comment from Martin, man alive 😂
That’s exactly what I thought… Martin digs out poor Jim literally out of nowhere!!!
@@QZDog123 It was fair to do so, given how much he's pushing the gay stuff. Qatar can point to the UK and say our alcohol use is far worse than their gay oppression. Far more people die from alcohol use than gays are killed in Qatar.
Unbelievable 🤦♂️😂
@@cockoffgewgle4993 there's a big difference between denying someone the right to live freely as themselves and the right to drink alcohol, by the way Qatar only decided to ban alcohol a day before the world cup began when tickets already sold you not find that suspicious? If they said no alcohol last year for example I guarantee you very few people would of went
@@ggmm6182 they banned it inside the stadiums you can have it at your hotel or restaurants. Grow up and understand alcohol isn’t a good thing and Respect different cultures that choose to accept that instead of deny the fact that alcohol literally destroys people. Don’t talk Especially if they are giving your country billions of pounds while your country is in a cost of living crisis. And ESPECIALLY if your countrys history is colonialism and wars and oppression. And ESPECIALLY ESPECIALLY if England and America and the west are responsible for more deaths in the Middle East than every Qatari that’s ever existed. And if you want to compare the right to be gay to the right to drink. You can be gay in qatar just like you can drink in qatar. You just don’t do it in public and premote it and act like it’s good to be a drunk. It’s not ok to walk around half naked or be promiscuous in public. Be gay behind closed doors but in public have some respect for the country and culture your in. It makes me so ashamed to see how ignorant people are. We were fine with Russia hosting. They have been responsible for like 50milion deaths in the last 100 years. The hypocrisy is so disgusting
Fantastic Simon. Thanks so much for speaking about this and thanks to talksport for giving him a platform.
A 7 minute video and all I came away with was:
What did Souness call Budweiser. 🤣🤣
Then you weren't listening pal.
He must have been talking about the Czech stuff coz that's exactly how that's pronounced
I had got my 4 year old daughter excited to see the opening ceremony, told her there would be singing, dancing, fireworks etc…..well, you know what we got instead. SHAME on you BBC and all the pundits involved in that hour of absolute drivel….should those debates be had, questions asked and concerns raised, YES, but not on this platform….save it for the news programs and talk shows
Finally a media outlet being positive about the World Cup
Big up Simon....The west is in no position to lecture anyone on morals
Absolutely disgraceful not showing the opening ceremony!

Rich Middle Eastern ordinary citizen has 2 to 3 cars with bigger houses, a better salary, and healthcare. They have modern cities, great infrastructure, no crime, and are very peaceful to live in because the people are disciplined. I think they are the real rich countries on the planet. Their government takes care of their citizen well, they have a bigger salary than foreigners and most of them are working in the government what more can you ask for.
Except they did show it (via the Red Button, the BBC website and on the iPlayer).
It was also the first time they had ever shown a World Cup Opening Ceremony live in it's entirety.
This is why Simon jordan is currently the best radio pundit out there

Agreed. They are bunch of hypocrites with agendas.

With all the negative press, this world cup has opened people eyes to the reality. May we all stand for and speak the truth even if it is against us.
I have a new found respect for Simon and co and Jim too, after watching this clip.
The BBC and Gary Lineker made me cancel my tv licence.
Thank God for CZcams’s same-day PL highlights. Makes MotD redundant.
Jimmy saville is pretty responsible for that too. I don’t pay for pee dos
Simon is spot on
The West is nothing more than virtue signallers. Ali threw his gold medal in the river and went to prison for his beliefs.
England won't take a fine or a booking for the stand they promised to make.
Sports shouldn't get involved in politics
Respect to Simon 👍
Except they DID show the opening ceremony on the BBC Sport website, IPlayer and interactive red button, people were ACTUALLY informed of this before it began and directed where to go. They were unable to show it on the main channels because of the last-minute moving of the opening day as it was brought forward and schedules were set months ago. if anyone is to blame, blame the organisers and FIFA.
Broadcasters are actually under no obligation to show it, not all are actually shown, in full so this is a non-story and anyone causing a fuss is distracting from the real issues which the BBC covered on Sunday in the opening coverage and won praise
Simon is just different love this man

@@Red-Eyez420gaming hence the term exploitation...exploiting other countries cheap child slave labor = lose the moral highroad and virtue signaling. Simple equation mate.
@@Rook.Kaiser that's still on the country's government. China is someone else's fault too? We exploit chinese sweat shops? No..
@@Red-Eyez420gaming not really sometimes its on the private sectors..if you want to go by your logic then there is no gov on earth are clean enough to host the world cup because humans rights issues exist everywhere...
"This world cup is going to be remembered for nothing but politics in the sport"
That didnt age well did it Graham?
It's very sad that the BBC keeps the British subjects (people) I'll informed about other cultures and values.
We are nations and families on this planet to know one another and find beauty in our differences.
At last Simon who says what most people are thinking
Those English fan will experience something in this world cup ,that will never ever happen again, go and enjoy , BBC shame on you ! They even tried some crap about English fans waiting hours to get in a and zoomed on empty seats 1 hrs before game kick off , that's the case in every stadium , but then never mention the full crowd when the game started,
Over recent days, every sports show / sports youtuber was talking about this. Any public caller who suggested that the show should focus on football was berated by the hosts. This is mad!
Pure sensible talk ❤
