#england2018 taking their seats, not a lot of smiles

SlickRic · 02-12-2010 4:17pm

i do love the way 'Arry can't get his club name right.

Tottenham Hotspur not 'Hotspurs'.

Mr.Nice Guy · 02-12-2010 4:18pm

If confirmed I can see tomorrow's papers with people in the region crying under a headline of:

'While My Qatar Gently Weeps'

No, I hope it's not Qatar. If it is I'd love to hear the explanation.

That's easy.

not a chance, surely?

whose pkelso?

J. Marston · 02-12-2010 4:19pm

Imagine the media reaction if England don't get it. The Daily Mail will be throwing all sorts of theories out there about those pesky foreigners

.
Hopefully they do get it though, at least we'll be close.
England 2/1 on now.

Xavi6 · 02-12-2010 4:20pm

How the fuck could England go out in the first round?

(rhetorical question as I know how)

Gerty · 02-12-2010 4:20pm

Paul Kelso, he's there. Works for the telgraph. Sly seem confident, but what else would they be?

jaykay74 · 02-12-2010 4:21pm

On twitter all the english journos seems to think England out 1st round.

We've had it confirmed by @ashlingoc that #england2018 went out in the 1st round
less than 20 seconds ago via web

iMuse · 02-12-2010 4:21pm

Alot of people saying Eng went out in first round now, I think russia will win it

Vinta81 · 02-12-2010 4:22pm

Rumours England went out after 1st round. FML if true.

bonerm · 02-12-2010 4:23pm

If Qatar can win with such a rubbish bid then we should put in a bit for 2026? Maybe 8-10 Stadia in Dublin and an 80,000 indoor ground in Athlone for the final.

(we can use our IMF cash for the bribe of course.)

Really?

You don't have the government sponsored broadcaster show a programme about bribery in FIFA and expect to get away with it...

Mr.Nice Guy · 02-12-2010 4:23pm

Showing the pictures from Zurich and the English look pretty glum.

efb · 02-12-2010 4:23pm

Go Russia!!!

SlickRic · 02-12-2010 4:23pm

as much as i'd like England to get it, the reaction on Sky to them not getting it would probably be of fúcking epic proportions.

ha, Sky now reporting they haven't made it past the 1st round.

a real fúcking joke if true.

if true, should we be surprised?

money and corruption is so so rife it's frightening.

ShaneU · 02-12-2010 4:23pm

Looks like England didn't grease enough palms

bloody hell. that feckin crook jack warner mustn't have backed them

J. Marston · 02-12-2010 4:24pm

Nooooo, England would have reasonably timed games!

efb · 02-12-2010 4:24pm

Scenes in Brummie land didn't help!

mike65 · 02-12-2010 4:24pm

I'm listening to bbc 5 live and Gabby Marcotti just said Spanish radio says Russia has won (he was looking at twitter)

fillmore jive · 02-12-2010 4:25pm

spain-portugal might sneak it

IvySlayer · 02-12-2010 4:25pm

Sky News are very sad now

I can understand Russia getting it.

For Qatar to get it, Aus/USA should walk out in disgust.

jaykay74 · 02-12-2010 4:25pm

Rio with an alternative viewpoint, unless he has been smoking the good stuff again

rioferdy5

I hope the rumours I'm hearing we HAVE NOT won the bid are false....my toes are crossed for good news...I'm sooooooo nervous here!!

JerryHandbag · 02-12-2010 4:26pm

Prince William looks depressed. Not looking good

efb · 02-12-2010 4:26pm

Россия – священная наша держава,
Россия – любимая наша страна.
Могучая воля, великая слава –
Твоё достоянье на все времена!
Припев:
Славься, Отечество наше свободное,
Братских народов союз вековой,
Предками данная мудрость народная!
Славься, страна! Мы гордимся тобой!
От южных морей до полярного края
Раскинулись наши леса и поля.
Одна ты на свете! Одна ты такая –
Хранимая Богом родная земля!
Припев
Широкий простор для мечты и для жизни
Грядущие нам открывают года.
Нам силу даёт наша верность Отчизне.
Так было, так есть и так будет всегда!
Припев

Jimmy Iovine · 02-12-2010 4:27pm

Well at least Sky will get to enjoy Qatar possibly winning the bid seeing as they're sponsored by Qatar Airways. Stupid if it's true

mike65 · 02-12-2010 4:27pm

leehughes21 RT @Julian_Ass: #FIFA VOTE LEAK: Russia 34%, England 25%, Spain/Portugal 25%, One Direction 15%, Others 1%... More soon...

3hn2givr7mx1sc · 02-12-2010 4:27pm

SSN have unconfirmed - Russia + Qatar. Fúck sake.

Russia have it. Just intercepted a message with some tin foil and a big mac.

J. Marston · 02-12-2010 4:28pm

Unconfirmed Reports, Russia 2018 and Qatar 2022 :rolleyes:

SlickRic · 02-12-2010 4:28pm

i do love Sky Sports, of all stations, trying to play down the 'unconfirmed reports'.

adamski8 · 02-12-2010 4:28pm

russia qatar! PERFECT LOVING IT. PLEASE BE TRUE

Mr.Nice Guy · 02-12-2010 4:28pm

I do think the scenes last night were a kick in the teeth for the English delegation. Here we go.

Russian mafia + FIFA = makes sense!

Breaking news: Unconfirmed reports are unreliable- SSN ROFLMAO!!!!

Radharc na Sleibhte · 02-12-2010 4:30pm

Lol at ssn.
Well done Panorama!!!!

5starpool · 02-12-2010 4:31pm

Ridiculous. Is the WC going to be held in a prepared, non crazy country ever again?

Vinta81 · 02-12-2010 4:31pm

Gut feeling we didn't get it

Actual depression.

Mr.Nice Guy · 02-12-2010 4:31pm

Am I missing out by watching this on BBC? They're saying England haven't got through.

mike65 · 02-12-2010 4:31pm

Press Association reporting it now. Makes the whole "drum roll" presentation look damned foolish

jaykay74 · 02-12-2010 4:31pm
