    They'll have to keep the people with guns away from any middle east teams.

    How come USA and Mexico have both been allowed to host the tournament twice since England last did?
    Germany too!
    That's not really fair is it!

    Of course we know the reason why, but still.....

    Canada will have 3 host cities - Toronto, Montreal and Edmonton.

    It looks as though both Canada and Mexico will get 10 games apiece, with the remaining 60 games being hosted in the USA.

    Is there a new rule about giving it to corrupt dictatorships or something?
    Theresa May will be pleased.

    '82 and Zico's goal, a kid at school dislocated his shoulder trying to do it, how we all laughed.

    financially it makes sense for FIFA, USA 1994 is the most attended WC in History with an average gate of just under 70,000.
    That's a lot of ticket and merchandise $$
