the Times Matthew Syed did a feature today about all those double standards pointing out that the innnglish sweet fa was guilty of breach of the rules in it's lead up to the world cup vote then cried wolf when it didn't get it's way... so basically would we have said anything if we had been awarded the world cup..... as for our own bid ... cameron and prince william... vigorously supported our bid in spite of the breach of rules of our own sweet fa.... doesn't say a lot for our own leader's morals
corruption is nothing new in this country even with checks and ballances in place but perhaps it is a higher class of perpetrator that gets away with stuff.... so that's ok ....
there was said at the time of the wc vote to be loads of reasons not to support the bid of inngland which was though a technically good bid ... let's face it a self serving one... we do have a really unpleasant attitude when it comes to football exemplified by our media ... (not complaining about the panorama investigation or it's timing.. but hey instead of soul searching we is out to get the enemy out there... groan!) but hey they say they give us what we want to hear so who is actually to blame? and who cares
GOD BLESS!
Peace and Love,
