    Are England FIFA bid whoever team the biggest sore losers the world has seen?

    I'm sure there is more important news going on the world and I would like to hear about it. For example my neighbours cat skidded on the ice this morning it was somewhat amusing.

    Do Jocks ever miss an opportunity to rub salt into a wound despite being a small and insignificant minority?
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

        So you admit it is a wound?

          Too closely related?

          The national bid cost the Football Association £15m but councils had to help fund bids to the FA if they wanted to host matches in their area.

          The two highest spending authorities were Sunderland and Bristol at £421,584 and £363,000 respectively.
          Here's the big local news: Santa boot camp!

          A Father Christmas workshop is being held in a shopping centre in Cheshire, after it found parents were complaining about the standard of Santas.

          Training will include Santa's Code of Practice, how to look the part and how to deal with upset children.

          They were criticised for not looking or sounding right by 40% of parents questioned.

              Hey, that's not fair:

              I heard the Scottish & Welsh national teams have agreed to let themselves be knocked out in the first round of qualifying, in support of England being turned down.

                Of course, if FIFA had said from the start that they wouldn't consider the best prepared and most profitable country with the most compelling bid then we wouldn't have bothered trying.

                  To some people maybe, I'm not one of them.

                  I'm thoroughly glad England didn't get it.

                    Why do you say that? Genuinely interested BTW.
