I'd also be knocking on for 50 so don't wanna think about it 😀 Side note I see it looks like a bid for a 5 nation UK hosted Euros in 2028 will have no opposition bid.

The 2030 bid was a joint one with Egypt and Oddly enough Greece but it's not happening now as SA are doing the Asia cup in 2027 Current active joint bids are Argentina, and some other nearby countries ( but not Brazil) And Spain, Portugal and Morocco, then there was a suggestion Ukraine would get involved with some group games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolton limbering up for their first crack at the World Champions League. Flying matchday buses, calls to sign bionic Zach Clough. I had a feeling Spain might be trying to bid for a tournament before long, once Barcelona and Real Madrid's grounds are finished they'll have a decent spread of really high quality modern stadiums to use around the country. Now a Spain Portgual jointly hosted tournament I could get onboard with! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a fan of tournaments spread all over but there's so many teams in them now that it can't be easy for one country to afford to host.

jeep Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 2030 WC is going to South America, Uruguay (100 years since 1st WC there), Argentina, Paraguay & possibly Chile. 2034 in Spain & Portugal would be superb!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Feelgood Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 China will put the squeeze on all those nations in their debt at some stage. The Austraila/NZ thing some women are giving a go at will always be an option given being any cop at the sport has been irrelevant since the time they let the Yanks buy it. Plus, a multi-nation one across Central Africa, sponsored by the Wagner Group must be an option one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
