limiting the US bid to one region of the country is ridiculous. if (and when) the US gets 2022, they’ll set up the world cup like the ncaa basketball tournament and have the groups located in one particular region in the country. i.e. west coast, south, northeast, midwest, southeast, southwest. travel between those cities would be considerably less expensive for fans, eliminating awful trips like seattle to miami or boston to los angeles. most knock-out stage game pairings are done before the tournament, so fans already know their options for those with enough time to make travel arrangements.

basically, if done correctly and similar to this approach, travel will not be an issue with the US bid.

Completely agree Nick, it would never happen but maybe if there was a NY, Philly, DC, NE joint bid, same with a SW bid with Dallas, Houston, Phoenix, etc.

As much as I would like to see the World Cup come back to the US, I really have to agree with the above sentiments in that it should be held in a smaller country. There just isn’t the atmosphere of hosting an event where it takes a good part of a day by plane to move from venue to venue – let alone the expense and the fatigue involved for both the fans and the teams. Maybe we can limit it to the Northeast/Midwest or West Coast/Southwest. In any event we need a better logo than the one stolen from the daycare center.

As an englishman, I’m desparate to see us get the World Cup again.

The bid team has made a careful decision not to talk about football coming home, and so far only one man has mentioned it.

Gordon Brown. Brilliant. He won’t even let us get on with our sport in peace now.

To the people moaning about the Australian one – it’s meant to quickly show you which country the bid is for – a bit hard to represent the modern, urban, dynamic cosmopolitan culture of Australia in a logo.

Anyway, it’s a logo for ef’s sake – the World Cup won’t be won by the quality of the bidding nations logo.

I’d say the Yanks will get 2018 and the Brits will get 2022 – we don’t have a hope really.

Agreed on our logo, it could be for anything really.
