WORLD CUP: ENGLAND WAGS HANDED STRICT LIST OF DO’S AND DON’TS TO AVOID CRISIS IN QATAR
The wives and girlfrieds (WAGS) of England footballers have been issued a list of do’s and don’ts to avoid a World Cup crisis in Qatar.
With the tournament just over a month away, the players’ partners have been provided with a rulebook by the management of the Three Lions on what’s allowed and what could earn them a £6,000 fine and a year in jail.
The rules which were delivered at a secret presentation serves as a reminder to the England WAGs that they are ‘not above the law’ in the strict Gulf State.
According to reports, one of the key points stressed is that WAGS are expected to “dress modestly” in public and at stadiums and warned that public display of affection will “not be tolerated”.
They’ve also been told about the country’s strict policy on littering, it is illegal in Qatar and punishable with the aforementioned £6,000 fine and year in jail.
On top of that, they’ll be prohibited from drinking alcohol or swearing in public, as well as playing music, singing, shouting or generally acting ‘inappropriately’ during the call to prayer.
Selfies outside of official government buildings could also lead to police action if the wives and girlfriends are not careful.
The FA chiefs had also said earlier: ‘It is important to understand that you and your husband/partner are not above the law here.
‘Every order is in place to protect both yourselves and your partner/husband in any case of indiscretion. Fines and prosecution are commonplace.’
