Australia should give up. We don't have the money and infrastructure to compete with the rich bidders, and our timezone is inconvenient is for international viewers.
I reckon Aus will get it next time they give it a go.... will have worked out how to play the bribe game.

Yeh, Christ, then what would be left?

Diving, gamesmanship and watching England fail to live up to the hype again after scraping through qualification.

We have the money, just not the stupidity to be dick waving like the Arabs. We have learnt our lesson from the Olympics. Spending billions of $ on something that lasts a couple of weeks then rots away.

These big events never benefit the host country. Australia should save the money and invest in public transport infrastructure instead.

This World Cup bidding fiasco is becoming more and more like the Eurovision song contest voting fiasco (UK 'neeel poin') . . . it's a fiasco . . .
