England Conducts World Cup Feasibility Study...A Nation Yawns

For some reason only known to themselves, the British government have taken it upon themselves to launch a feasibility study into the possibility of bidding for the 2018 World Cup Finals. I know, I could barely contain my indifference either.

However, remembering what Tony Blair (y' know the chap - the future-ex-Prime-Minister) said on BBC's Football Focus -that such a bid would have to come from the F.A - this feasibility study, led by Gordon Brown (y'know the chap - the hoping-to-be- ex-Chancellor-hoping-to-be-Prime-Minister), looks more like political maneouvering than a genuine attempt to stir up interest in a bid.

Ho hum.
