Bris Vegas Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Joint bids are the way to go. England should definitely do one with UK + ROI. It was stupid having just England, Germany, Spain, France and Italy hosting single WCs. Means for the younger generation it may take years to get another one. Europe is so small joint bids makes sense, and means three or four countries at once could be selected. They should have had a Spain, Portugal joint bid. France, Belgium and Holland. Germany, Poland and Czech. Italy, Switzerland and Austria. Makes much more sense and includes more countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is if we did it would still mostly be in England, not many stadiums in the other 4 that could be used. England could host it tomorrow.

England could host it tomorrow. Yeah, would be similar to the US. Depends on how many stadiums they use, but they could definitely use Celtic Park, Ibrox, Hampden, Millennium Stadium, The Aviva and a redeveloped Windsor. Then 10 from the England like Old Trafford, Etihad, Anfield, St James’ Park, Elland Road, Villa Park, Olympic Stadium, New White Hart Lane, Emirates and Wembley. The UK would need minimal work. A few redevelopments maybe or better transport, but it wouldn’t be difficult to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ariotofmyown Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Seems a bit rubbish to have it in US and Mexico again. If they really want to spread football around the globe, should have had joint India, Pakistan and Bangladesh World Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
