Yeah....can't argue with that!

It's interesting to me that Andy Anson, our bid chief executive has blamed it on tactical voting.

He's said 'There were other votes we thought we were going to get that would have taken us way into the second round and beyond. Some of those didn't materialise, I don't know which ones. It would be nice to know because when people look you in the eye and promise you something you tend to hope they live up to their word but clearly that's not happened.'

I'm f**king astounded that no-one saw that coming. Surely we weren't that naive? Did they really believe the merits of the bid alone would swing it when they were dealing with the FIFA?

But it reeks of us getting done by Warner most of all.
