    This is good news for European football
    Always though he had a good sense of humour when doing various tournament draws

    Hard to believe that bad habits wont creep back, after all the media dies down. Gut feeling
    says there was probably a lot of others further down the chain of command on the take, who will
    expect the gravy train to continue in exchange for their support.

    Can't our stadium be redeveloped into 40k? Pretty sure that's what the deal was back in the 2018 bid. Or was that if we got the one at Ashton vale? Still though, if we wanted could always knock down the Ateyo and increase that, hope we do it anyway, just doesn't look right.

    FIFA intending to go to 2 country bids.

    Maybe we could go in with Scotland - add Hampden, Celtic Park and Ibrox to that list and it looks even more impressive

    Also Tottenham will have a new/redeveloped ground soon

    Emirates stadium
    Wembley
    Olympic stadium
    Twikenenham (Twickenham)
    Stanford Bridge (Stamford Bridge)

    Are all London, which great for our location but for the northern lot proves too much in overnight accommodation to stay in London.

    God son Park sounds interesting but Ell And Road sounds a bit grim <laugh>

    In fairness if it's classed as the English FA with Cardiff and Swansea in the league they could try and use the Principality stadium as well.

    Not without the ownership of the land/houses behind the Atyeo I suspect, and the permission to then demolish them and rebuild a massive stand at that end.
