They don't choose just anywhere, they have candidate associations who apply for the finals.
And their argument for that is.. They want to spread the game across all the federations
Fine if it was just a TV sport or it was most likely an Azerbaijani /Armenian /Georgian or Eastern Turkish team was likely to be the finalist.. But its not just a TV sport and their decision this year to put the final 7 hours away from the next nearest city to the actual city itself and the travel problems currently raging would somehow make them stop and fucking think for a minute
Football without fans is nothing.. Baku will be their first real test of that.. The c*nts
And yes I might be a little testy this evening.. Hoping my flight takes off and lands tomorrow
