not a chance Cardiff would host it

Even putting aside the shenanigans in London last year I'd have been surprised if it had won. I still think with it being the Centenary WC it'll go to the Uruguay/Argrentina/Paraguay/Chile bid. Even it goes to Europe Spain is long overdue a major tournament.

They were encouraged by UEFA to bid in return for dropping the WC bid. UEFA backing the Iberian bid for that

I'm pretty sure it was intended that England would indeed get the automatic spot, but the others (only contributing one or two stadia each), would have to qualify.


Pretty sure ourselves and the Scots would find away to f**k up qualifyiing even with 31 spots available LOL

Uefa have said to the fa that a joint bid for euro 2028 is nailed on to succeed. There won't even be a competition, it'll just be awarded to the home nations and Ireland. 


2030 will be a great location regardless if they avoid giving it to China or going back to the Middle East.


Spain and Portugal or Argentina, Uruguay, Chile and Paraguay Clap

England won’t be getting votes off anyone for a tournament for decades. Brexit and the Euro Final disaster have made sure of that.

Looks like a bid for 2028 Euros will be favoured over a World Cup bid.

Also talk of expanding Euros to 52 teams
Just fixed it for you Lass Shocked

Still be in a play-off.
