WELSH ON THIS BET..
Back ’em to beat USA
WHAT would an English football fan do if England won the World Cup?
Stop playing FIFA and go to bed. Though anything is possible in this “Madame Tussauds does football tournament” debacle. It looks real from a distance but up close it’s just a fake and glossy impersonation of a once-great competition.
Any fans rich enough to actually make the journey out there will be greeted with open arms – and closed minds.
Just don’t be gay, hold hands with anyone who’s not your wife, swear, drink alcohol anywhere you shouldn’t, or have any fun.
The fan zones look like footage taken from Guantanamo Bay.
And there you get to sip alcohol for a few allotted hours. Budweiser, £12 a pint. Why is Budweiser like making love in a canoe? It’s f ***ing close to water.
It’s enough to make anyone teetotal.
There are even fears the football on show may not be real.
Rumours suggest Ecuadorian players have been approached with bribes to lose the opening game to the hosts 1-0.
Unlikely I suppose, but then again if you’d told me 20 years ago that Qatar would be hosting the World Cup I’d have said you were bonkers.
The Welsh – not including the Prince of Wales – will be hoping for a strong start against the USA and I reckon they will win well.
WALES to beat USA: Betway – 2/1
