Well at the rate we are going we will all end up spending every summer on the island of Britain - London 2012, Glasgow 2014 (Commonwealth Games), England 2015 (Rugby WC), England 2018 football WC…
Can we expect a Winter Olympics bid … because of climate change, of course?

Seriously in this country football being dessert after a main course of the olympics? Football isn’t a sport any more it’s a religion.
If the world cup came to the UK it would undoubtedly be the main course after having the olympics as a starter.

England must have learned a bit about winning a bid process from the Olympics, so presumably they won’t make the big hash of it that they did for 2006. Still, I think they’re going to have a fight on their hands. Australia in particular might be tough opponents.
