I think 'The Jackal' didnae actually want to win it. Bertie says "This might be an extra argument for me to get my precious 'Bowl', we know it's off but if you let us on board you can blame for us it failing." The Irish press never believed 2008 was gonnie happen. Predicating success on a foreign coalition governement demonstrated lack of comittment in the first place. The Alpines are already building the stadia they need (Mmmm, smells of commercial guarantees to me). The economic argument about a solo bid could be pulled apart by ordinary punters. Anyway, the facts have always pointed to an early stitich-up. McConnell said that he would shoulder the responsibility if the bid failed, yet before swanning off to Johanesberg gave an interview to the Scotsman about how the joint bid may have been stitched up by the Alpines and Uefa some time ago. Basically, if the bid fails there will be any number of reasons for it and he'll get off the hook. I know like after the solo bid collapse that we all have to keep on demonstrating support. What i'd appreciate is a plan B from those who are involved in the TA hierarchy. How are we gonnie pick ourselves up if the joint bid fails? I'm not lookin to mix it - just wondering.
