Mulberry = no world cup?

by willz_royal » 22 Oct 2009 22:31

24 expensive bags have been sent to the wives of each of the selectors of the world cup host nation.

Ridiculous. Dont know if this is the done thing, but this will surely backfire and lose us the bid?


rubbish.

easily within the rules. send them the best of British, they love it, even Jack Warner might be swayed by a Burberry raincoat for when he's sat at the Walkers watching Iran v Serbia

There was an episode of Panorama a couple of years back that exposed certain aspects of the voting system. It discovered that when we last bid for the World Cup The FA didn't go to the same "lengths" that the other bids went to in securing the finals.
