Rumours stating England never got passed 1st round of voting.....thats about right for England though isnt it ?
Not that I am bothered either way but I do wonder how much money this has all cost so far when it could all be decided at a meeting of those in charge for next to nothing.

and the Result is.........

















Russia :yikes:

What a joke! It will be like playing here! Money talks and cow poo walks!

Think if the money we have saved by not getting it. The country is on its knees as it is without hosting things like this. or stupid things like this: BBC News - Government launches £4.2m urban tree-planting plan

Scottley, I agree with you with the football thingy, but I like the tree planting scheme, £4.2m isn't that much compared how much gets wasted on other things... this worked really well in Berlin, swallowing up pollution, making people happier and calmer... anyhow, why shouldn't Russia get it? It said on the radio that they put a really good final presentation forward, that it had never before been held in an Eastern block country etc etc, so maybe we should be gracious losers...

England will never win this sort of event.. look at the eurovision.. started here but always political voting for each other, this Fifa is the same. all political voting for each other and totally wrong.. IMO..

One word FIX

 

[Colour Republic]

FIX

only just watched the Panorama, aside for the payments made I was more shocked at the condidtions being agreed

Visas and border control relaxed,
Tax havens

WHAT!!??? Here is a self styled body writing their own laws, and countries are bowing to them

the whole world is a fix

the whole world is a fix

Too right it is, agree absolutely. This will be good news at least for the Russian folk, they have had it tough for a long time....
