Underpants Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Joint bid from Mexico, USA and Canada beat Morocco. So much for FIFA's philosophy for sharing the love throughout the world. Since we got it Mexico have been involved in 3 WC, and the US twice. Can't see us getting it any time soon. My world cup host predictions 2030 - Uruguay (poss with Argentina). 100ish years since the first world cup. 2034 - African or Asian country. 2038 - African or Asian country. 2042 - Mexico. 2046 - European nation but it won't be us. 2050 - Joint bid from IS and Syria. 2054 - South America 2060 - Australia 2064 - Mexico. 2068 - Antarctica. 2072 - Mexico/Germany joint bid just to piss us off We will all be dead before England get it again.

Marc505 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Twenty Seventy Two?! They’ll have put rows A to C in Macron by then, 30k every game. BBC were discussing whether a single country could host a 48 team WC now, do you reckon we could? Maybe a UK World Cup. There’s always a lot of complaints when we don’t win hosting rights but can you imagine transport in the likes of Manchester on a WC weekend where there might be 4 or 5 games in the north west area. Painful! Anyway, always been a life ambition to travel around USA, I’ll do it in 8 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birch-chorley Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 We could handle a 48 team World Cup with our eyes closed It’s 4 games a day at the moment with 32 (busiest days) Even if that goes as high as 48 teams it’s a piece of piss holding 6 games of football in 1 day (not that it would get that bad with TV schedules) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Not many countries could handle 48 teams, so expect more continental bids and winners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summer will be a doddle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevieb Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Said to the Mrs last week it'd be Mexico USA and Canada. Its not a fucking joint bid from small neighbouring nations who can't handle it solely that, its a fucking continent. Expect wc2030 to be Africa.

Sweep Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 I might go to 2072. Anyone up for it? I'm busy for that one, I'm well up for 2076 which will be held on Moon Bases 1 & 2 though - only teams who can afford the space travel will qualify though - so it's straight into the Semi's Russia v USA China v The EU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
