RATE IT! Start Your Bidding

Olympics? Old news! I don't want them...do you want them? But I can tell you what I *do* want...the World Cup!

Bidding for the 2018 and 2022 tourneys begins tomorrow with countries in the northern hemisphere believed to have a distinct advantage.

The next two editions will kick off in the southern reaches of the globe. The 2010 World Cup is slated for South Africa, while Brazil has won the 2014 games. It's believed that FIFA will be more apt to prize the WC to countries above the equator to even out the playing field. England, Canada and the US are all rumoured to be keen. 

Decisions will be made over the next three years. Gosh, don't hurry on our account!
