mg,tom dick n harry dont know this whole cherade(fifa)is corrupt so the goverment need 2 try 4 these events,that would have generated billions billions for our economy,its a shame when its so in your face now,the whole world is shambolic just now

I think it always has been, really, it's just that now with all the information technology news travels fast... in the previous generation not even everybody had a radio ... corruption is an old old thing, isn't it...

i cant understand how russia got the world cup. fifa have a kick racism out of football , then they choose 1 of the worst offenders for racism in football, its a joke and we know a fix ,blatter and platini cant stand us or is it jealousy of our premier league ,
alot of my pals have been to russia to watch footy in the past ,and say its 1 of the most intimidating places they have ever been
in my opinion we should boycott all fifa football tournaments they need us more than we need them, thats it rant over

I'm wondering how the hell we got the 2012 Olympics, obviously athletes are a lot less corrupt than those money grabbing FIFA lot. I do question Panorama tho' not about their investigations, but about the timing that the programme was broadcast, maximum negative impact for the England bid....nobody likes to be called a bribe taker even if it's true!

its a real pity england didnt get the world cup,and is in my mind no doubt a backlash from panoramas investigation


however it has highlighted for me in a huge way the sheer corruption which i beleive is there just by the way fifa have conducted themselves with the votes and have deliberately pushed aenglands bid to the side basically sticking 2 fingers up at them.

they have dug there own grave with that move imo and hope they get what they deserve
