if they put as much into it as they are doing with Sochi olympics , it should be a grand affiar , but then I think Qatar
will do it best to put on a good show also ...
I might consider Qatar. If I am still fit and healthy .. :lol:

Apparentley we lost it because of our close proximity to a nation of feck wits, Scotland !Scotland is rejoicing tonight.
It has just been confirmed that thousands of Scotland's Doctor's Surgeries have been accepted to carry out the removal of Inferiority Complexes .
The spokesman said "'This will take hundreds of years "
Probably no longer than it took to remove English bayonets from their
arm-pit holes.

So close yet so far away !!!!!!

Only 2 votes and 1 was from Engerland :lol: :lol:

In the beginning, the lord god almighty, sitting on his throne on high, turned to his mate, the Archangel Gabriel, and said "Gabby, today I'm going to create Scotland.
 
I will make it a country of dark beautiful mountains, purple glens and rich green forests.  I will give it clear, swift flowing rivers and I will fill them with salmon.  The land shall be lush and fertile, on which the people shall grow barley to brew into an amber nectar that will be much sought after the world over. Underneath the land I shall lay rich seams of coal.
 
In the waters around the shores there will be an abundance of fish and beneath the sea bed there will be cast deposits of oil and gas."
 
"Excuse me Sire", interrupted the Archangel Gabriel,  "Don't you think you are being a bit too generous to these Scots"?
 
"Sh*t no", replied the Lord,  "wait till you see the neighbours I'm giving them"!!!


British by birth, Scottish by the grace of God

I hear that Scotland are bidding to hold the 2026 World Cup.
It's the only way they'll get to play in one.

Outside the normal Scotland – Engerland banter, I am actually sorry Engerland didn't win. Surely it couldn't have done the country any harm and may have contributed to the economy.
BUT I think this is a bit pathetic:-
Quote

“London Mayor Boris Johnson has revoked FIFA's free hotel rooms at the city's exclusive Dorchester hotel during the 2012 Olympic Games.

FIFA president Sepp Blatter and his team had been in line to benefit from the rooms during the two-week sporting extravaganza in the city.
However following the controversy of the 2018 World Cup vote, which saw England knocked out at the first-round stage with just two of a possible 22 votes from the FIFA executive committee, Johnson has decided that they should not receive the freebie.”

England and the soccer fraternity are not the best roll models at the moment and not likely to get the World Cup for some years to come Russia 2018 and Qatar 2022....you'll be an old man by then Gary :lol: :lol: :lol:
