Poll: Should the 2022 World Cup draw be re-run?
As pressure grows for Qatar to be stripped of the right to host the 2022 World Cup amid claims of corruption in its successful bid, we want to know what Star readers think.
Pressure has been mounting for a re-run of the bidding process for the 2022 World Cup after claims emerged yesterday in the Sunday Times.
The bid committee denied any wrongdoing and said it would "take any steps necessary" to defend the process.
The Sunday Times said it had seen a cache of documents which exposed that Qatar's victory was sealed by a covert campaign by disgraced former football official Mohamed bin Hammam.

The Sunday Times said Hammam, a former Qatari vice president of Fifa, world football's governing body, used secret slush funds to make dozens of payments totalling more than five million dollars (£2.9m) to senior football officials to create a groundswell of support for Qatar's bid.
It said he used 10 slush funds controlled by his private company and cash handouts to make dozens of payments of up to 200,000 dollars (£120,000) into accounts controlled by the presidents of African football associations who held sway over how the continent's four executive members would vote.
