I have been watching the post mortem regarding England's failed bid and I saw the build up last night. If you listened to the pundits and so-called experts the thing was in the bag. Self praise filled the air and Ladbrokes had England at 8/13 red hot favourites to win the bid. Early today David Cameron called it "too close to call", a real tight race.

Fast forward and we find out that, out of 22 votes, England secured only TWO!!

Tonight's "pundit" opined that "England must be doing this wrong" after earlier having praised the "Hollywood slickness" that the bid had been conducted with.

Must have been a "bid of two halves" and not taking advantage of "situations early doors" eh Ron?
