I said it was mad when it ws first announced and that In the end we'd have to do it, it seems increasingly likely that the 2022 tournement will be in UK.

Put a roof over them, remove the seating, get some refrigerating units, and they'll have the best skiing in the middle east.

Memorials to the fallen?

Eddie, that turns out to be serious misreporting

I was rather pleased when our bid failed. The total fiasco of Euro 96 proved that the FA are not yet up to holding another major tournament. Until the English FA are reformed, or preferrably totally replaced, then the World Cup should not return to these shores.

Can u explain how Euro 96 was a fiasco Gromit?
I recall issues with ticketing but when are there not?
England IMO should be ready to step in in 2018 never mind 2022, biut nonetheless it was idiotic of John Whittingdale, however well intentioned, to shoot his mouth of like this. Almost certainly guaranteeing that England will be overlooked

Yeah how was it a fiasco gromit? Your anti British bile rises to the surface once more. We have impeccably organised all the great sports events of the world only an anti British commentator of your level could possibly conclude otherwise.

Tora, we weren't in the bidding for 2022.
