[Head Topics] Stranded World Cup fans offered full refunds after housing didn't have toilets or wash basins

Stranded World Cup fans who hoped to stay in 'fan villages' are being offered full refunds by the Supreme Committee in charge of organizing the event, according to ESPN.

Those fans were left without acceptable accommodations after"fan village" sites were left without basic amenities, like toilets and wash basins. The"fan villages" were constructed to allow World Cup fans to attend the event cheaply. For $200 a night, fans believed they would be staying in a converted shipping container furnished with basic amenities. When those fans arrived, they discovered some of the sites were unfinished and still under construction.

#9  Qatar invited them, Aca Joe. And while some there stupidly hold on to outdated prejudices, Qatar’s rulers know that without Israel’s friendship Qatar will not survive what is coming.

#6  World cup/Rainbow people related..."If you want to express your views on the LGBT cause, do so in a society where it will be accepted. Don't come and insult an entire society. We will not change the religion for 28 days. If a fan raises a rainbow flag in a stadium and it is taken away, it will not be because we want to offend him, but to protect him. If we don't, another spectator could attack him. If you buy a ticket, it is to attend a football match and not to demonstrate" Qatar security chief Adullah Al Nasar.
