Couldn't organised a piss up in a brewery and they have the cheek to have a pop at us over Brexit.

Might as well give us the whole tournament now, we're only missing a quarter final.

 


Optimistic as ever

To be fair, Wembley is hosting 10 games out of 39, so far from the whole tournament.

But Wembley is by far the highest capacity stadium out of those selected, so it's not a surprise if they want to maximise income.

It might also better our chances of getting a World Cup in my lifetime, but I'm not holding my breath (for obvious reasons; I wouldn't be here to witness it if it did come about).

I think the format is rubbish and the semis and final will be at wembley

To not have the unique atmosphere that a host country brings to a tournament, it will missing something. These international tournaments can be boring as it is but this will be dull as ditch water

For years I thought it was dish water.

Yeah but they're getting €55 billion from the UK. Do really think they care about a couple of footbal matches?

More than 25% of the matches of a tournament that was going to be European wide. Add in the fact that another 20% of the games will be in the British Isles and that another 10% of the games are in Asia and I don't really think they've achieved their goals.

Thirded. I think Platini hoped there would be more kickbacks (than usual) with so many potential bidders.

Save us a fortune in the long run. Do you really think we care about what they care about?

How did Austria do?

How do you manage to keep your head firmly buried in the sand while also sticking your fingers in your ears and whistling? Amazing talent, keep it up while the rest of Europe moves on.

You couldn't argue against my statement then.

We are net contributors, so we will be better off financially in next to no time.
