First two players I searched for, Cherki and Nico, not there. Fuck that.

Edit:- Nevermind, found them. What a fucking awkward UI that is. Anyway here's my team.

Bit of an ad hoc team there. Not sure where you got them from. Never win anything.

Just checked, should have done that before asking really :-)

Mexico 86
US 94

Both get it again in 2026

No issue with been in Mexico.
They love football
Americans aren't interested in it.

Midfield is absolutely shite. Don't know what I'm thinking!

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Organised a sweepstake at work. Small office, so you could pick one to four teams. I was one of the last to pick. First pick, Argentina. Shit, everyone's going to think I've rigged this. Second pick, France. Fuck. Third pick, Portugal. Fourth pick, Ghana. Ridiculous.

Mexico 1970.

I didn't include Mexico as it's central America ........ but yeah, that was quite a good competition there back in 86, or at least it was until a chap named Maradona stuck his hand out !

Mexico is in North America.

This will be the 2nd time of hosting for the US i think .... the other time they hosted was 1994.

Crazy that they've had it twice in a little over twenty years, whereas England haven't had it in 60 years. FIFA really don't like us, do they?

Anybody doing or seen any interesting bets for the tournament?

Just finished watching the 2026 programme made by makers of W1A and 2012. Good satirical take on the potential for the most politically “correct” and instagrammable World Cup yet. *shudders

I'm not sure I'd class 32 years as a little over 20 years but agree with your point. England or the UK has a ready made stadia infrastructure to host the world cup and its a joke it hasn't had it in 60 years.
