Galway mayor says World Cup stadium plan 'a non-runner'
The mayor of Galway has said a proposal to construct a stadium in the city is "a complete non-runner".
Yes. Great facilities but godawful as a spectator. And that was England vs. Ireland in the Six Nations.
Finances could seriously fuck the S. American and Moroccan bids though.
I think the cost of hosting major sporting events like the World Cup and the Olympics has got to the point where only dictatorships can justify it really... Which means England in 2030 will still be in running lol etc.!
I think FIFA are more interested in £$¥€ than sentiment.
I do agree but that bid will also have the whole of CONMEBOL and CONCACAF behind it, lot more countries to bribe from! Whereas I wouldn't say England are UEFA's favourites. The whole 'hundredth anniversary the WC comes back to where it started' thing will also get a lot of people to travel there IMO.
No idea
After the Euro 2020 final shitshow I'd say we had 0% chance anyway.
Back to back in Canada sounds good. For 2030 we can drop the Americans and that should make everyone happy!
If the Tories are corrupt as people say, maybe they can hand some brown envelopes around and this will actually happen
There 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.
:mourlmao:
Well, they did play there previously when the Aviva was being rebuilt, but yeah I get your point
England manager Gareth Southgate says it "would be an amazing experience for everyone" if the UK and Republic of Ireland won the right to host the 2030 World Cup. (Talksport)
I wouldn’t trust Johnson with organising anything to do with that after the clock up he made with awarding the Olympic stadium to West Ham and involving us or his lack of help with our stadium.
Will have 48 teams in it, so maybe.
Maybe they can ching for it
I wouldn’t trust this country to run a bath, let alone a World Cup.
