Tokyo please although wouldn't mind Madrid either, not Istanbul though mainly for safety reasons by then there could be to much conflict going on in that part of the world that there would be problems hosting in there anyway

Turkey is a very large country It's about 10x the size of England Evan if that does happen It would be very rare

Tokyo is a bit too soulless for sporting events.

Istanbul is the most exciting city of the three and is in a country with a booming economy so seems a good choice, only pitfall of course is the recent rioting... but we had that in London didn't we

Tokyo as it'd give me an incentive to go.. although if I didn't go the time difference would piss me off. Madrid would be nice.

Reckon North America is getting 2024,
