Gotta say that I feel that the English party were over confident. To me they just look like bad losers. Don't get me wrong, I'm annoyed that we haven't got it too but they should just get over it. The FIFA delegates wanted a World Cup where it hasn't been staged yet. Panorama had nothing to do with it.

It makes sense for Blatter and the FIFA, not for the sport. They are basically selling World Cups, ebay-style.

What even goes into decision process for choosing the location for the World Cup? Admittedly I don't really know shit about Soccer, but it seems pretty obvious that there are MUCH larger markets that would certainly be interested.

I've calmed down a bit but if the rumours are true that a Fifa executive has phoned the FA this morning to say that basically we got knocked out in the first round because of the media, i thought this was supposed to be about football and the best place to hold it not about spitting dummies out and taking revenge.
