What is it with the government, we have no chance of winning this unless we do something spectacular but with it being England, I doubt we can do anything. Too much Health and Safety and too much PC. Our government are just pathetic!!! Why would the Pm want England to get this, hes a Jock!!!

Belgium-Netherlands or Spain-Portugal will get it.

Certain people (Jack Warner certainly being one) have an agenda. They don't want England to host the World Cup, even though it's well past the time we did.

Long way to go yet in my eyes before we can be counted out, i would rely on Jack Warner's vote either, corruption is his middle name.

We won't be getting it anyway. Other countries can guarantee warm and sunny weather in the summer. Hell even South Africa can provide a decent climate in their winter!

Plus the handbags thing was no surprise. Rules quite clearly state we can't do it. So what do we do? Oh yeah, give a load out.

We've not had it for 43 years now, and in my personal opinion we won't be getting it for a few years yet.

Netherlands?, Me and Mr Casper would be in Ganja heaven lol.

The only thing i've seen is banners in Pompey saying vote for Portsmouth as a host city. Other than that, no advertising on tv or anything, its as if they don't want it!
