Russia RWC 2027

Russia appear to be putting together a serious challenge to Australia for the right to host the RWC 2017, following on from the recent success of Japan in the RWC 2019. France have been nominated for the RWC 2023.

France have been nominated for the RWC 2023.

Selected you mean? or it it now in doubt ?

Nominated, selected, still happening ( at present).

I hope they do not get it, they're corrupt and bigoted.

Wrong move in my opinion...smacks of deals and greased palms....so no doubt it with happen.....some Arab state or China after that.....?

I know things are still up in the air about Brexit, but those thoughts are a little unkind on France.

For me, I want to see a Celtic World Cup (Ireland, Wales, Scotland) long before going down the football route of taking corrupt money.

Also Argentina/Uruguay, Italy, Spain and USA/Canada would be far better for growing the game

Totally agree AG! I wouldn't let Russia anywhere near this

I hope they do not get it, they're corrupt and bigoted.

In fairness though, at least it is a major sport in France

What’s the beer like in Russia, l mean you’ve got to get the priorities right.
