UK Womens World Cup 2035 bid

[Leicesterpool]

No surprise theres a bid done a fab job with the euros and you think now a lot of bigger stadiums will want to be involved. So no trips to Rotherham etc.. 

 

Big question like euro 2028, why a UK bid? England has enough stadiums.

Hope so, it was a little embarrassing using places like man city's academy ground (much to the dislike of the icelandic team).

 

Hope it captures the publics imagination like it did in Australia/NZ.

Because FIFA & UEFA don’t like England

I don't think thats true, they love having joint bids.

You just know Milton Keynes will be listed we'll likely be overlooked

Leicester will get overlooked because its crowds for women football average about 5k/6k. The club has never even put their weight behind having a game where they aim to break records etc like so many others have.

Good idea if it's a true uk bid and not just lots of English venues plus Hampden, Millennium and Windsor Park.

Murrayfield would be a better venue considering edinburgh is the real capital of Scotland. Plus Hampden is a dump in need of a mega face lift.

I'd do Ibrox, Tyncastle or Easter Road and one of the new stadiums touted for Aberdeen or Dundee.  

 

Cardiff and Swansea, or Wrexham dependant on their upwards trajectory. 

 

We are stuck with Hampden in its current guise for a long time. No cash. 

[Leicesterpool]

Wrexham wouldn't surprise with the Hollywood connection 

[Dr Marco]

Deptford, Catford, Watford, Digberth, Mansfield
Ahh, anywhere in Albion

Give you all one guess which is the only club on the shortlist of 35 stadiums who have said they aren’t interested in hosting.

Surely not us considering we've hosted a couple internationals already.
