Is there still a continent rotation system for the world cup? every second world cup seems to be in europe(90, 98, 06, 18), with it being rotated inbetween. Ok i know that last one & next one are outside europe - but does this mean the England would have an opportunity to bid for 2026 worldcup?

I thought they would always have the chance to bid for future World Cups but wonder if they'll bother after the latest fiasco with World Cup bids. Interesting that Sepp Blatter was meeting with Robert Mugabe yesterday -- wonder what those two have in common???

If you were in the league last year it should add you automatically once you've put together a team. If not, I'll ask Emma for the invite code.

nah not really, I just take it as a bit of fun. I was in the top 3 at one time last year in the work league. ended up about 12. Not bad considering I forgot to make transfers :oops:

you don't need to know anything about football to do a team. It is all a bit of fun.
:) i'll redo my team tomorrow fingers crossed for not jinxing the players this year. Am actually tempted not to put any Liverpool player in just in case, but a team without Stevie mmm...
