    Just saw this on the bottom line on ESPN and this article that proves it. Europe will be getting the WC in 2018 because FIFA is already negotiating with UEFA to give it to one of the euro bids. Looks like it will be :americafuckyeah: or the Aussies getting the WC in 2022. IMO England will be getting the 2018 bid.

    2018 was "supposed" to be CONCACAF's turn of the WC rotation, but UEFA cried and probably bribed Sepp.

    '02 - Asia
    '06 - Europe
    '10 - Africa
    '14 - South America
    '18 - :drumroll:

    I thought FIFA announced they were not doing the rotation anymore, I could be wrong. Or it could just be a fake announcement to go around their own rules and give the World Cup to UEFA before they were supposed to. :idk:

    Yep, they announced no more rotation after Brazil won the bid, but didn't completely go through with the rotation and give it to CONCACAF because UEFA had a shit fit that three straight WC's wouldn't be played in Europe.
