England‘s WAGs have reportedly been provided an official list of DOs and DONTs ahead of the Qatar World Cup.
With the tournament just over a month away, the players’ partners have been provided with a rulebook on what’s allowed and what could earn them a £6,000 fine and a year in jail.
The list serves as a reminder to the England WAGs that they are ‘not above the law’ in the strict Gulf State.

They’ll be prohibited from doing a number of things in public and during the call to prayer
According to the Sun, one of the key points stressed is that they should ‘dress modestly’ when in public and at games, and were also reminded that public displays of affection would not be tolerated.
They’ve been reminded on the country’s strict policy on littering, which 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 not careful.
This isn’t the first time that the England WAGs have been warned about the strict rules in Qatar that they should be aware of.
At a meeting before England’s 3-3 draw with Germany last month, FA chiefs said: ‘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.’

This is the luxurious setting where the England’s partners will stay in Qatar for the World Cup
Last month it was revealed that partners of the England players have booked in at Banana Island, a luxury spot 25 minutes by boat from the Doha seafront, according to the place’s sales director.
Those with children have their eyes on the biggest chalets which sleep five. Benefits include a helipad, should they prefer that to the motor launch, with white leather seats, complimentary dates and cold flannels.
Those £6,000-a-night chalets, built on stilts which sit in the Arabian Sea, won’t offer total escape from hoi polloi.
Five-star Souq Al Wakra hotel will be where the England squad will reside for the tournament
Anyone can catch the boat and pay £100 to enjoy the resort’s pool and beach. But with a cinema, a surf pool with a wave machine and scuba diving courses, it all rather contributes to the sense that England’s partners are well ahead of the rest when it comes to the accommodation quest for Group B.
Meanwhile, the five-star Souq Al Wakra hotel will be where the England squad will reside for the tournament, which begins on November 21.
The beachfront complex, where rooms can cost up to £300-a-night, was selected by manager Gareth Southgate after assessments of team bases prepared by the Qatar authorities for the 32 participating nations at the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
Southgate was attracted to the ideal location of the hotel complex, which has 101 rooms, because it is close to the stadiums in use in the tournament and by the beach.
Fans can choose between hotel rooms, villas and apartments, tents and cruise ships docked in the city. However, rooms are beyond the budget of many supporters.
In Doha, a rudimentary metal cabin will cost a minimum of £176 per night. While Booking.com’s prices for a 7-night stay in Doha during the World Cup are around $5000.
Additionally, The Mail on Sunday recently reported that a number of hotels in Doha have decided not to screen games, having been told they will have to pay host broadcaster BeIN Sports around 100,000 Qatari riyals (£24,000) for every restaurant or bar which shows them.
The cost of making games available in rooms remains unclear, though hoteliers describe those fees to be unviable, too, with no flat rate per establishment. The costs are also thought to be affecting proprietors of rented villas and apartments.
