What Bahrain bobolee 333 eh say is dat de island is mostly arid (desert).
The manama stadium is de only proper ground dey have and football on other grounds is like playing in a gravel pit.
Also dey though allow women out unless they are accompanied by their husbands or close family, so women would not be normally interested in football like ours are.
Also bars and clubs are normally expatriate and are strictly members only.
If you are caught talking to women who are not your family or are in the presence of their husbands or fathers, yuh run de risk of lock up.
Finally the Shiek decided early in their WCQ campaign that all games in manama stadium will be free to the public.
Ah have friends working there now and I spent some time working in Sharjah and Dubai.
By the way, Dubai is boss place unlike de rest .
The stadium in the pics is The bahrain national stadium, but, it's not the only proper ground, thew bahraini league is usually played on the other stadiums but the national matches are plyed on this ground which a capacity of around forty thaousand.
wahahahahahaha Â
where are all those facts from?? women here are free. this is bahrain not afghanistan for god's sake!!!!
there is minority of women who attend matches cause football is a man dominated sport, even old women on crutches attend some important matcxhes, and bahrain has it's womens' football team whish shows that women do have inteerest in football, we even have a woman rally driver.
lock up for talking to a woman???
hmmmmmm
i've talked to half of bahrain's woman population and have'nt seen a policeman locking me up!!!!
seriously guys i don't know where you all those wrong and strange facts about bahrain but don't believe evrything said about anything, you should make sure of those things before talking about them.
This sheik you're talking about is Sheik Salman Al Khalifa the president of the Bahrain football association and he has given orders to let bahrain fans get their tickets free to the matches which his association pays their prices to the FIFA.
peace
