Precisely the reason they are bidding together. If all three bid separately and you had one bid from Africa, you would risk vote splitting and allowing Africa to win.

LDOG 2,199 Posted April 10, 2017 #114 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Mexico is getting the shaft here. I also read that USA will host 60 games and the other two just 10 each. And QFs onwards all in the USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2014 teams mourned about traveling to Manaus, because it was so far away, i can only imagine what it will be if they had to play in Canada and next in Mexico. That would be a joy. Just like with the Olympics, it seems open bidding is a thing of the past and it doesn't matter who brings the best platform, everything is a calculated scheme. They should make the mandatory rotation official, we are more or less using it for years now. And i was so happy for a canadian bid, now.. And the US will have the Olympics, they should bug out of this.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real reason behind is that all 3 football federations want to cash their part in US dollars, so they will accept this idiot plan Federer91 and intoronto 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
