Fucking great idea. Alienate almost every other country in the continent with Brexit and then bid for a World Cup that will need votes to win.

They could build a football ground with temporary seating designed to be converted into a world class athletics park with reduced capacity owned by the council after the competition is completed.Galway is a great city. Dreadful ‘rugby’ stadium but Connacht have a tiny support. A ground of the suggested size would be ludicrous.
Don't be silly.They could build a football ground with temporary seating designed to be converted into a world class athletics park with reduced capacity owned by the council after the competition is completed.
Antarctica.What happened to the rotation, to different continents, of the World Cup?
Is it still there?
If so, which continent should it be held in?
Going for the 2028 Euros instead now.

Beautiful terrace thereAs far as I know, there's only 2 stadiums capable of holding big games in Ireland, and one of them is dependent on the gaa.
Croke Park and The Aviva.
Even at that Croke Park might have problems with Hill 16, unless they put in temporary seating.

It would be great, we have most of the infrastructure in place. There's a reason why we are getting more finals (CL /Euros) we make huge money and have everything readyI wouldn’t trust this country to run a bath, let alone a World Cup.
They have a gaa stadium already and connacht rugby are redeveloping their grounds so it would be a massive waste of moneyWhat would they use it for afterwards? Galway says no thanks.

And that turned out well. Superb facilities but an absolute library of a stadium.Well, they did play there previously when the Aviva was being rebuilt, but yeah I get your point
There was soccer played at croke park. Plenty of internationals played there when the aviva was being builtThere will be riots if a football is ever kicked at Croke Park. FFS everyone was up in arms when they played rugby there because its too "English".
There are plenty of other stadia available. None however with a daily bus service.
