What are the odds of the bid and what happens if it wins? Certainly more pressure on building projects.

Well someone from the organising committee contacted us for advertising so it was hard for me to miss it.

World Indoor Athletics championships were held here in March last year and it was a forgettable event. I don't think everyone living in Qatar was aware that it is taking place.

Let's see how the outdoor version goes if they get it.

Reminds me of the old saying.....Do not take more than what you can eat on your plate.
