Very weird. I kind of wanted the World Cup but was fairly aloof about it until last night. Now I'm glued to the news for every last clue and gagging for it.

Impressed by the presentation, although I think most of the voters will already have made up their minds

Last nights Brummie twats will have no influence at all. Remember Spain / Portugal have serious racialism form and the Russians appear to have copped out already as Putin no show.

Perhaps I should add that both Spain and Portugal are technically about to go bust financially which should put their bid to bed.

Russia has serious racialism issues too I believe

I heard our pitch on the radio & it sounded very slick & professional. I think we could get it (if the FIFA crooks haven't already 'sold it' to the Ruskies). Game on then (ish).

Can anyone help me - BBc website says I can watch the presentations via the red button on TV... but the red button is only pulling up various news menus... am I being a spaz?

ps Thought it was a terrible shame that Becks & co. didn't include the word 'passion' a lot more though...

a very good presentation, but i would say the only down side that the 3 films should have had 3 different bit of music not the same one in all 3, but lets hope its coming home

It was a very good presenation, and, yes, it did make me feel rather proud - quite unexpectedly. Very difficult to compare it, as I didn't hear most of the other presentations, and what I heard of the Spanish one, was obviusly not in English, so doesn't come across so well to me in translation.

My reservations are that, I would be very surprised if the officials have not already made up their minds, on their first bid and the second - I mean, they've been looking at these bids for months, if not years, so they would have formed an opinion well before a 1/2 speech, however good it was. Secondly, I always felt that politically, we seemed to be underdogs for it too - so it may not have mattered a jot what we said today.

I may have missed it, but did we mention at all in the presentation that we invented the game ?

Hats off to Eddie, though - a super job.

Likewise. That's the only time I've supported Cameron. He spoke well to be fair, I suppose a background in PR does that to you.
