So Fifa president Gianni Infantino likes the idea of more than one country hosting the world cup ? So come on the FA,s of England,Northern Ireland,Scotland and Wales give it a go. :drink:

We haven't got anywhere near enough bribe money to get a World Cup any time soon.

I thought the joint Japan/South Korea World Cup worked quite well, although I'd hope it'd be on the same landmass if they did it again.

I don't think it's a dreadful idea- Japan & South Korea was brilliant and it's generally been fine in the Euro's. I think there's a very limited amount of countries that are capable of hosting a world cup solo without almost bankrupting their nation. What I'm not keen on is this becoming a method used by shit teams in order to qualify for tournaments. A shit host nation team is never good for a tournament.

They've made it so big now that it probably just needs to rotate around the federations or there will only be a few countries capable of hosting it anyway.

Like all "elite" football, it's just eating itself now and I find myself losing interest in the big competitions.

Islamic Caliphate and Iraq.

Not sure whicch country would headline the final. A few public beheadings at half time to entertain the crowds.
