England got 2 votes for 2018

Breaking news on SSN. Can't believe this.

There's obviously some controversy behind this, i don't see how England came last with 2 votes. We had seemingly the best bid and were the favourites to win it throughout the entire bidding process.

Out of how many?

I wonder if there's ever going to be a time where we will host it again.

We went out in the first round of voting, it was all over in the second round.

What a fucking joke

disgraceful tbh

Out of 22 people. This is beyond beleif.

Jesus Christ

We never stood a chance against those fucking corrupt cunts at Fifa.

Oh well, the world ends in 2012. Wound on Russia.

Blatter is such a corrupt piece of shit, i hope he elbows his groin and bites his tongue at the same time.

Fixed. Always said it will be. It goes by which country can bribe the most judges rather than the best bid.

Sepp Blatter and all the people at FIFA.

I understand how you feel. I was shocked when Egypt got zero for 2010.

Shows how rigged the whole thing was in the end.

From being told we had the best overall bid, to getting 2 votes and Russia winning in a landslide.

I assume Putin will show up with some blank cheques for them to fill out.

One of them were English as well I think..

1 of the vote is from an English, so only 1 vote from an outsider......what a joke, bet they all agreed to go for Russia way beforehand.

Fucking hell, that is messed up.

I can answer that for you now. We are English, FIFA doesn't like us. We'll not host a World Cup in our lifetime unless something changes.

1703: So two people who
voted for Netherlands/Belgium in round one, switched allegiances to Russia in
round two even though Neth/Bel were still involved. I don't really understand
that.


1657: Full results of
2018 voting:

Round 1: England 2 votes, Netherlands/Belgium 4
votes, Spain/Portugal 7 votes and Russia 9 votes.
Round 2: Netherlands/Belgium 2 votes, Spain/Portugal 7
votes and Russia 12 votes (Russia obtain absolute majority)
Clearly messed up there when 2 members changed their votes in the 2nd round

I hate to agree with you, but it must be something to do with that. I just can't see where we went wrong.

Ridiculous.

England had a good bid. They should've had more than 2 votes.

Just more evidence the whole thing was rigged tbh

Why would you change your vote when they are still in the running? Makes no sense unless they were paid off or something....

That just makes it look like they wanted England to come last.

They wanted England to come last. The whole thing reeks of corruption.

You'd think if they were going to fix it they'd make it less obvious..

Why are the total votes in Round 1 = 22 and Round 2 = 21? Something isn't right.

Not very subtle, are they?
