    I see they have the spurs Stadium down on the map for London I wonder does this mean that they would provide som funding for our Stadium(As they had the 2012 Logo up to so I'm guessing it's the 2012 stadium)

    Excellent promo video from England imo

    You'd be forgiven for mistaking it for Sky's latest Super Sunday ad.

    True but its the English premier league, very clever video imo, suppose they are showing the popularity of football in England around the world.

    Fair play to Beckham.....he's not said "at the end of the day" once yet.

    Gerrard said United with so much hate :D

    I'd say he went through some amount of soap washing out his mouth after that. :p

    Was a fairly impressive presentation though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,692 ✭✭✭✭OPENROAD


    Excellent presentation imo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,153 ✭✭✭everdead.ie


    Ya I think they did do an excellent presentation it will be intresting to see Russia's presentation and how many votes England get overall, spain and Portugal are lucky that they have South America who they get on really well with while England don't have that


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,543 ✭✭✭JerryHandbag


    This is the first time they've chosen the next 2 hosts isnt it? 2022 is a long way off!
    I think if would be very odd if Japan or Korea got to host it since they only hosted it recently. Australia obvious choice for that one I wouldve thought. As for 2018, I dont say it often but.....COME ON ENGLAND!:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,673 ✭✭✭s_carnage


    So what time are they expecting the results at??


  • Registered Users Posts: 998 ✭✭✭Kingdom


    Russia, Holland/Belgium, Iberia, England in that order would be my preference.

    As for the 2022, just for the craic, I'd love to see Qatar get it, just for the many puzzled looks.
    However I'd hope for Australia, USA, Qatar, Jap/Kor.

    jesus sky sports are hilarious, just describing their bid as the best and unbeatable. saying russia had a bad week with wikileaks. eh hello how about the english media accusing 3 of the commitee for corruption think thats a worse week!

    it was an excellent bid, what do you want them to say? if we were to put in a bid, would we not say the same? of course we would
    they can say their bid is excellent, thats fine. but saying russia now have no chance at beating them to it is ridiculus. just the incredible bias is funny. The second lad on it actually said the only problem is that their bid is so good that they might give it to russia cause they need it more :pac:

    Bill Clinton did a magnificent job for the US with his speech. I think they have 2022 locked up.

    I hope England gets the 2018 one.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,913 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    From Twitter -
    Russia should have gambled and shown the Blues v Villa violence from last night. Then cut to a shot of Wills in a Villa scarf.

    :pac:

    I'd love England to get it, hope to move back before 2018. It just makes sense to bring Football back there :p Our prestion was as they said very slick.

    Have to say the Russian bid isn't half bad though.
