So he'd have been OK with apartheid South Africa hosting the 1982 World Cup?

If people would actually attend I'm sure he would be okay with North Korea hosting the world Cup.

This is the reason I hate football. Its organisations cause huge human suffering across the world because their bribes are more important. They lavish footballers with ungodly sums of money, quite a lot of them then turn out to be rapists. Then the fans cause endless destruction with rioting, not even because their team lost half the time, just because its expected of football fans now so hey why not?

I mean he was bullied for having red hair, so he totally understands what black and brown people went through in apartheid South Africa.
