Indeed. The whole thing is a circus, supposedly our bid has improved on the back of David Cameron, Beckham, Seb ****ing Coe and Prince William shaking a few hands. It is ridiculous. Perhaps Wills has tried to get some votes by showing some snaps of the future princess's boobies that he has on his phone.
I would like to think we could host a decent WC here, at least the games would sell out and getting from one ground to the next should only take a few hours. I went to Moscow once, hated the place, can't imagine it being a great place for fans, plus it is obscenely expensive.
The Aussies would probably do a decent job. With America having had it relatively recently I can't imagine that having it there is fair.
In summary, **** FIFA and **** the snow for my train journey to Edinburgh taking over six hours.
