The BBC was talking last night about our "failure" to win the rights to stage the World Cup and the need for an inquest to "determine what went wrong"- very much as if we were entitled to it and had had it snatched from under our noses. I think it's fairly obvious that what went wrong is that our bribes weren't big enough. 

Anyway, we'll be staging the next Olympics. How many international sporting events do we think we deserve?

I myself am thrilled to death that the World Cup will NOT be here and only wish they would deal with it and stop wasting my time whilst watching the news. It's NOT news any more, people.

I feel much the same. Fifa is corrupt, Britain is not the world's most popular country right now; deal with it.
