The kits were crazy awesome then. Everything looks so bland now.

2030 will be the 100th anniversary of the 1st World Cup in Uruguay, and since they're bidding you'd have to think they'll be favorites. Maybe England can do a combined bid with Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and maybe even Ireland?

It could be Scotland most solid chance to qualify for a WC, that's for sure.

Good news for the Netherlands and Italy!
Sorry, I could not resist...
Back to the topic: as much as I would have liked to see Morocco as a host, a World Cup of that scale is way too much for them - even for more developed football nations this is getting out of hand. Combined hosting will be the norm and the only way to deal with 48 teams and their fans.

Canada, Mexico, and the US had all publicly considered bidding for the tournament separately, so at least this way everyone wins.

Only one of the teams competing in the world cup can win. You want them all to win?
