TheTransferWindow Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Australia makes the most sense since they haven't had it, but I would love it to be USA again. Qatar makes no sense and it seems like Korea/Japan just had it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peever Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I have voted the US only because that way its much easier for me to go see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 US/Aus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponky Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I think it will be USA but I hope it will be Aus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Should be Oz, will be US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPower_14 Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I think the US will get it because of the dollars they can put into football, but they've had it relatively recently, it should be shared around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Unfortunately it will be Australia. I hope it's Qatar though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NulliSecundus Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Unfortunately it will be Australia. I hope it's Qatar though. Why? They have shit infrastructure? It will ALL have to be built from scratch and the only things tourists will be able to do is walk around shopping centres owing to the 50 degree temperatures outside. For me, there is only one choice in all of this - Australia. Don't get me wrong, I'd love an excuse to go to the States again but 1994 wasn't that long ago... Same with Japan. South Korea might not exist by 2022 so it's a bit premature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Id liek Qatar as well which would prove small countries can host World Cup but I expect Yanks or Japan to win it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shillzz Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 If Japan, Korea or USA get it and we dont get 2018, then there is something seriously, seriously wrong with FIFA. Infact, if any of these 3 nations get it then it will be a disgrace. Australia for me, by a distance. Qatar, cant buy it im afraid, and hiring Zidane isnt impressing me either.

South Korea might not exist by 2022 so it's a bit premature Why don't I want it to be Australia? Well, its currently 10am here in England. It's 9pm in Sydney. It's 8:30pm in Adelaide. It's 6pm in Perth. When the World Cup is on I like to gorge on football. I dont want to sleep through half the games. I dont want to have to get up at 7am to watch England play and I dont want the World Cup Final to kick off at lunchtime. Qatar can schedule games for European TV audiences very easily. And they may have some cool space age stadiums! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shillzz Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Really more the timezone issue. But the cool spage age stadiums should be pretty impressive as you say, much like they were in Japan & Korea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Silly question.....Why do these guys get 4 more years to prepare then we do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shillzz Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Think its probably to do with the way that the WC "Visits" different continents each time. i.e. it has to come to Europe in 2018, as it wont have been there for 12 years. After which, it then has to go to another continent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponky Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Obviously the time zone thing is all relative. Considering it's Worlc Cup and not the Euro championships it would be nice for countries in the Asian time zones - which represent massive numbers in terms of TV viewership of football - to have an opportunity to watch matches in their waking hours and even get the chance to travel less than 6 hours on a plane to watch a World Cup match. So fair's fair really. You guys can "gorge" on football for the next 11.5 years, and we'll take 6 weeks of gorging, and you lot can have it again for the next 12 years or so...
