The Gnomes Of Zurich

Now we know. Russia will host the 2018 World Cup while Qatar have won the right to do likewise four years later when the tournament will take place in an Arab country for the first time. These decisions were announced in Switzerland today after a feverishly anticipated meeting amongst FIFA's Executive Committee members. We at Highly Questionable? love football and so have taken the World Cup as the theme of today's quiz, although sadly there can be no question that FIFA itself is about as lovable as bubonic plague.
