    Really small thing, but really appreciate your use of the word "Football". Even as an American, it would have been easy for you to refrence it as soccer, so on behalf of everyone, thank you!

      Why does anyone even care?
      I'm not from the US, and I do use the term football, but also soccer sometimes. It seems like a petty and insignificant thing to care about.
      I'm pretty sure you don't refer to every single thing the same way that the natives who popularised the thing refer to it, but rather use the same terms other people around you use.

      But that's the problem is that we insinuate the way that things are ran there as being bad. But it's simply not our battle to fight corruption and dirty money is how these companies have always ran despite transparency that we want or however much we push them the fans of this sport are simply that fans have never had any power in the structure with which FIFA or any governing body in the world of soccer is managed you can complain all you want and set bladder and the rest of the oil tariffs will sit back and laugh because it's the way things will continue to be done. Because quite frankly that's the only way they've ever been done..

    Johnny, your promotion in this video is a scam. Other RUclipsrs and sleuths have found that buying a 1x1 foot of land in Scotland does not make you a lord. You can't own a small plot of an estate and be a lord. Only the owner of the entire estate can have that title. In fact, Scottish courts have already ruled on this and the Established Titles company is simply lying. The Leagle Eagle made a video about it today.
    I like your videos, but if you want people to take your channel and information seriously, please vet your sponsors. It could make others question the authenticity of your channel.

      It's not entirely fair to frame it like this. Johnny does say "you're considered a lord" which is different to saying that you're royal. It's like buying a doctorate's title and then you're considered a doctor of astrology and you can call yourself that as there are no legal protections on these titles. Also if you think about it for more than two seconds it would be very stupid for every homeowner in Scotland to be a royal so it's not that horrible imo. Probably still more on the scammy side but not really harmful imo.

      If you can't make your point with accurate information that also uses supported conclusions you are no better.
      Tom makes a perfectly fine argument for the problem with that particular Harris video and it has nothing to do with money. Guess what people can do things that are bad, wrong, and harmful and fully believe what they did was right, and beneficial.
      Evidence consistent with a proposition is not evidence for a proposition.
      Yes I have my problems with Johnny Harris.
      But at the end of the day, Harris simply may not know that established titles is a scam. The fact that you almost certainly have thought of that possibility and dismissed it and instead are assuming that Harris is being malicious and taking their money knowing its a scam makes you worse than anything Harris has done.
      I will take a genuinely misinformed person who believes wrong things even if they are spreading propaganda because they are misinformed. Over someone who assumes another human is being malicious without actual proof of corruption.
      I hope that you honestly hadn't considered Harris could just be ignorant. If thats the case I also hope that you stop and think. 'What other conclusions have I jumped to based on not thinking of an alternative'. After all just because you can't come up with another answer doesn't make it ok to assume the one answer you could think of is correct.

    Also the biggest reason why Qatar spend so much money (200M+) is because they didn’t have any of the infrastructure to host. Surely the number will drop back down significantly for the 2026 WC hosted in North America where stadiums and hotels already exist.

On the other hand tho.. credit suisse got a cash injection by the Qatar investment authority in exchange of shares. As a swiss i never heard about this until a few weeks ago when I was researching the topic. I always thought they were both bailed out by the government, and most of the people i talked to were also convinced of the same.

    Interesting how South Korea and Japan submitted their own bids for the 2022 World Cup. Because they did the exact same thing for the 2002 World Cup. The reason they ended up co-hosting in 2002? Well Mexico was the only other nation besides them that wanted to host, but FIFA said them hosting was a long shot, so it was between South Korea and Japan. South Korea entered the race in response to Japan doing so as a political rivalry. South Korea and Japan were going all out on an expensive PR blitz to try to outdo each other. While then FIFA boss João Havelange supported a Japanese bid, the UEFA and AFC sought to come up with a better solution.
    To avoid conflict, they approached the two nations and said the 2002 World Cup would ONLY happen IF they shared it. So reluctantly, they both agreed (FIFA even suggested North Korea should host some matches as part of reunification talks; but that was ruled out). But like with other World Cups, the 2002 one doesn't come without controversy, as South Korea cheated their way to the semi-finals as they got the referees on their side.

      The World finally saw Qatar for what they are, Cheats living under a facade of "peace" and "hospitality" for media to cover up the vile people they are. Everything that gets exposed is now being justified by pointing the finger away just like you have done. Sports and sporting sponsors have now realized how restrictive it is to host anything in The middle East and will rule out any other major events in the future as it will impact sponsors and revenue to the sport. Whether the backlash of media or western media is accurate or not it is still the major media that speaks to the world and affects the view of how the world will look at Qatar.

    Hi Johnny, Could you please remove the link for Established Titles from this video, As we all know that it is a SCAM and they are being investigated by Advertising Standards Authority in the UK. Or at least put a disclaimer next to the link.

    As always, great script and editing. Couldn't help noticing those quotation marks around the 1930's "World Cup". I would say it was more international than a local game called "World Series" 🤣
    Amazing work considering the complexity of the subject. As a brazilian, we are kind of familiarized with Fifa's "work ethic".

      I think because the first World Cup only had 13 nations in 1930, so it wasn't very broad at first.
      I would push back against your World Series comment because pretty much the best baseball players on Earth all compete in MLB, which includes over 1,000 players from 25 countries.

China always wins the table tennis world championships, but it's still open to the rest of the world. Of course these sports are less popular than football, but I would never try to make that silly argument haha.
