TP27 Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Rumour is England were knocked out as first round All the rumours, if they turn out to be factually correct in the end, lead me to believe that the FIFA Bid process is flawed.

cheechy Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Unfortuantely it looks like the curse of "The world of football hates the English" has hit again. I'm a Scot and I have to say I'm pretty disappointed - I would have liked to have had the WC2018 in England. What's the point in trying to get the competition with best facilities. best commercial opportunities etc but not even get through the first round? Unbelievable.

Cuprabob Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Very sad about this as well as a Scot, I wanted to see all the hype of England playing at home and then not winning it. Qatar for 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Can someone give a realistic explanation, other than the obvious bribes, why Russia won? Qatar for 2022 then Oh the UK press will doubtless spout corruption, mafia etc. Maybe their overall bid was better? Or could that just be too realistic...?

TP27 Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Was it not a nightmare for Man U fans in Moscow, not so long ago ? That said, the suggestion was that South Africa would be a "risk" but their WC seems to have been a success! I'm wondering whether Russia played a blinder here...............they've clearly offered a bottomless pit of Funding too? Too much tittle tattle too before the Vote Announcement - all of which seem to have been true........? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheechy Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Makes a mockery of the whole bidding process - whats the point of bidding and spending millions of pounds on the bid when you've no chance? FIFA make my blood boil! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waylander Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Eliminated in the first round - 4th out of 4. Now we know why FIFA have decided to change their minds and to give the vote split in full later tonight - to get rid of the fishy smell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
