World Cup 2022

Good luck to Australia for their 2022 World Cup bid...

I hope Frank Lowy can pull this off for Australia, it would be absolutely awesome...

[George S.]

If we win it will be good for oz.Remember the winner is siddee 2000 olympics?

[fyrOM]

I’m doubtful Australia will win. Their saying that Australia was assessed as the least profitable option sounds like a let me down gently action.

[sf.]

Unfortunately, we would need a miracle to take away the Cup from the US. Saint Mary MacKillop, do your magic. Or Prolet - he always has the appropriate ties.

...lol

Keep the faith sf, Frank Lowy is gonna bring it home...with or without Prolet's involvement...

Would be awesome if Australia won the bid

[Daniel the Great]

I hope Australia get it, and i hope by then that Macedonia is good enough to make it in the world cup.

[Bratot]

If Australia get it I'm comming there )

If not for our participation on the event than for sure to take the money that Prolet owes me.

Estimated 156 question x 50$ = 7 800 $ debt.

Enough to pay for the flight, the tickets for the WC and to drink up the rest with you

[julie]

awesome Bratot
Prolet has not asked many questions of you recently

FIFA, EU,UN all the same shit. corrupt bastards. Its not what you've done or what you know, its who you know and who is first to throw money at them.

I don't like Australia's chances at all. FIFA has no respect for Australian Football. Common sense says Australia should win the right.

USA have had it not long ago.
So has Japan, no big deal
Sth Korea......well do i need to tell you why not?
Qatar, only 1,000,000 population + terrorism factor.
Australia, one of the largest multicultural country in the world.
low risk of terrorism
proven big event capability.
Great climate.
By having it in our continent would truly make it a world game. The sport would explode in this country.

Unfortunately, it has nothing to do with what is the right thing to do or common sense. Just like the EU, its who ever sucks better.

(sorry Ladies for the foul language)

[Prolet]

Wow Skippy the Bush Kangaroo even Paul Hogan is there, fantastic promotional video.

Phoenix, I totally agree i think Australia is a realistic candidate and if they can get it, its going to be fantastic its like hosting 2 Olympic games the TV ratings will be through the roof.

Bratot, Tune into channel 513 they got live coverage there.

Well the logical thing to do is give the WC 2022 to Australia, but as Bill insinuated, it's all about the MONEY.

Another reason why i doubt they will pick Australia is the massive time difference between Australia and Europe, North America and South America, people in those continents would have to wake up early to watch the matches.

As Bill noted Australia is very much so the most multicultural country in the world, a lot of Macedonians, Italians, Grks, Chinese and many other people live in this country.

[Prolet]

Now is the best time, every candidate accept for Qatar and Australia has hosted the World Cup, If Australia doesnt win the bid now i cant see a better opportunity.

[Bill77]

Its also about all those free gifts and hotel rooms for the FIFA committee. And prostitutes that come with these Hotel rooms.

Its not much different from Korea or Japan even Qatar. No doubt they would use this as an excuse anyway. Well the time zone didn't seem to be a issue for the Sydney olympics.

It's now official on the 2018 and 2022 FIFA World Cups:

Russia will host the 2018 FIFA World Cup while Qatar will host the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
