................on a very male orientated forum the question of
[size=24]ENGLAND AND STAGING THE WORLD CUP [/size]
I am amazed!! :o :o :o :o :o
Is it because you are:
Bored of the prospect?
Don't care?
Think the Russions will win?
Fed up with football?
Are prepared to just see what happens?
Think it has nothing to do with English football?
Have better things to worry about?
I am Scottish or Welsh!!
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D :y
-
It's bent.....So the Russian's will win ::) ::) ;)
-
Football....(terribly sorry old boy, I am a little tired).
-
Added poll for a bit of fun!! ;D ;D ;D
-
In my case - I dont care. :-/
-
The truth will be known this afternoon apparently at about 1500-1530 ;) ;)
-
NFI!
-
NFI!
MTE!

Ticked the fed up with football option.
But will also add, with all the extra TV channels we have I wish they would sod off and leave normal TV viewing alone.

Thanks Aaron, that was a serious thread on the subject yesterday ;)
Today I thought there would be many of you voicing opinions, but myself I cannot be bothered with a serious thread anything about football, so I thought we would have some fun with the subject :D :D :D :D :D ;) ;)

Hmm. Makes me think. Is there another subject as dull as football?
We've done Oil to death - but it's still more entertaining.
"What car would you buy now they don't make Omegas" - Not in the same league IMHO.
Old jokes - a few make me chuckle still.

Fish & chips, now there's an interesting subject :y
-
just heard the England WC bid presentation - it was genuinely excellent :y
i dont think it'll make a blind bit of difference as the russian mafia have it in the bag (along with the head of the last guy to disappoint them) ;D ;D

I don't, we have none. Not seen one snowflake this winter.
If we do get snow, I make do with the rubber I've got on my wheels.
I just find that every thread about tyres boring. It's been done to death and boils done to personal preference in the end. Ones opinion on how good a set of tyres are, is based on their own driving experience and no two people drive the same. :y
-
England have gone from 2/1 2nd favourites to 8/11 on favourites, overtaking Russia - hmmm....maybe England will actually pull it off :-?
personally i'd love the WC "next door" in England, as long as Scotland don't qualify and humiliate themselves as usual ;D

Sorry BJ, I hope you do not think I belittled your great (serious) thread on this subject :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ Just wanted a bit of fun taking the subject from a different fun angle!! :D :D :D ;)

Rather than take any interest in this (as with all sport) I would rather pick at a scab.
As I'm presently sans scabs at the moment (my new hole has healed very nicely thank you) I'm rather at a loss. :(

ah yes...Dalglish, Jordan, McGrain, Macari, McQueen, Hartford all great players in 1978....unfortunately Peru were better tho ;D ;D

Lizzie, how on earth did you manage to omit the Irish from your poll. I'm sure it wasn't deliberate. ;)
-
In my case - I dont care. :-/

Well they are not on the mainland, and knew the Irish would not be interested! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;) ;)

i love football i played semi pro and to be honest i would love it if we hosted the cup but it would probably end up being flawed like 2012 i cant believe so many on here dont like footie :(
-
As with all forms of sport, it's a personal choice wether you love a particular sport or loathe it. I must admit that I'm a footie fan but I understand people having no interest in it. Now golf, snooker, darts, rugby and cricket I find as interesting as watching paint dry. ::)
-
dont want it here,its not about football anymore. all the govt are interested in is the revenue. too many come over here and dont go home so will cost us more in the end.
-
Love my football but couldnt give a two hoots if we staged it or not. As we know the England side will continue to show no pride in the shirt so whats the point in watching em.
Plus after last nights trouble has been shown around the world it will be the final nail in the coffin for us to stage it
-
I love football and I hope England get the World Cup, I just don't think they will..

I'd rather have root canal work done than watch footy on the telly >:(

England out in first round of votes :(
pretty shocking - easily the best bid :o
-
It was already such a done deal - big bags of used notes - that Putin couldnt even be arsed to turn up. ;) ::) ;D
Still.Im glad it isnt coming here, the over the top coverage would have been unbearable. :)

We will have to endure days of recriminations and post-mortems in Sky's gutter to gutter news coverage of it however.

Yes absolutely right Zulu, and everywhere you look and listen!! :P :P :P
Still perhaps it is the cross we have to bear for it quickly dying as a discussion point until 2018 :D :D :D :D ;) ;)

It's bad enough we're hosting the Olympics.. Russia is welcome to the World Pup ;)
I can probably book enough holiday to escape the Olympics and inevitable gridlock, but I could never book enough to escape the World Cup.. ;D

agreed, the whole thing stinks - apparently England got just 1 vote other than their own for what was a bid head and shoulders above everyone bar maybe Spain and Portugal. You know, the Russian World Cup will be a disaster, as for Qatar in 2022.... ;D ;D ;D
