Well I agree with Remy. The press coverage of this on Friday was pretty embarrassing, in my opinion. Toys out the pram stuff.

If winning a World Cup bid was all about how good it was 'technically' - i.e stadiums and infrastructure - why did South Africa win 2010, and why is Brazil getting 2014?

Sometimes when you hear our media, especially before World Cup tournaments, it is if they think that England is the only place in the world that football is played to any serious standard at all.
