Is that why it's delayed? Or is the (possible) 3rd voting round scheduled for later this day anyway?

 

[Neall]

to be honest, i don't think we will get it :/

 

[Nick.]

Qatar have won it have they, think FIFA have got that spot on, would be great to see it there

Yes he was indeed. Better than Becks telling about his grandfather being dead :S

totally disagree, i think for a person like Becks to stand up and present like that was admirable. Its not his comfort zone AT ALL, he did exceptionally well considering he's "thick"!

And i think the Grandad story, was to add a personal, heart felt, emotional touch to the bid.

No one could have done any more, if we don't manage to get the bid, its all our fault anyway XD





our = Blues fans...

Yeah i know. It was a nice story and i know where he's coming from. Just at the time when i heard i sort of 'wished' Holland would have such an emotional message

totally agree!! the amount of grief we've had from it though is ridiculous and Im sick of it, every paper except the daily star has connected last night to the bid.
We should be judged totally separate to a minority of thugs, every country has them, most countries far worse than ours.

Why is it always late... these things never seem to stay on time :$

On SSN they are showing you the England Video and its epic fantastic backing music and they are asking Arsene, Harry Roberto and Sir Alex
what they think of England

 

[ravenie]

Sep Blatter will do something...hypocritical I reckon.

 

[DMF]

Announcement imminent. People in the auditorium being asked to take their seats.. it's about to happen!

 

[ravenie]

Apparently England went out in first stage of voting.

 

[CtPauley]

unconfirmed reports that england have been knocked out in the first round :'(

 

[ravenie]

Unconfirmed atm.
