BBC Joy?

[nonomaybe]

I suspect the BBC are already scouring the details of Top of the Range everything in Russia having done their bit to sink the English bid(?). It wouldn't have done to have the Competition in England as they couldn't treat so many to a taxpayer funded jolly as they will in Russia.

Just what we need, a sixth thread about it!

All we're missing, is one in Cyrillic ...

The bid was lost, long before Monday's Panorama programme.

To make a bit of an effort on the last couple of days of a four year process, is not good enough.

Gromit – I totally agree.

Just so as not to disappoint Naz:

Хозяевами Кубка Мира будет Россия а нет Англия.

I have made a spelling mistake in the above. 100 Brownie points for the first person to spot it.

So we musn't have documentaries about(obvious) corruption,in case that causes us to lose a bid(actually from that corruption)you certainly have a funny way of looking at the world.
Of course footie fans can explain anything away to support their beloved game.
