Thread: So the US, Canada and Mexico get the 2026 World Cup.

  1. #1

    So the US, Canada and Mexico get the 2026 World Cup.

    That's Mexico's third bite of the cherry since 1970 and the US's second since 1994.

    Looks like it'll be a while before we have a World Cup in a country that actually has a major football culture again. I'll be nearly 60 by that time, if I'm spared.

    And Canada utterly despises football, from those I've known (present company excepted). And three teams who don't have to qualify.

    At least a WC in a proper football country starts tomorrow.

    Exactly, they try too hard these days. The Russians have sort of gone with a wolf suffering from glaucoma

    Seems a strange decision not to go with a bear, tbh. Or a double-headed eagle if they wanted to go proper retro.

    I was just thinking that, even a Siberian Tiger. Don't really think of Russia and Wolves
