The Celtic countries backed the French bid as opposed to the English one to hold the tournament. As a consequence of this stitch up they get a home game apiece, whereas England get sweet bugger all.
 
Ah ok, cheers! Seems a bit weird, but then again it is rugby! Do you think if we back Brazil or someone like that for the next WC we'll get a home game at Wembley?!?!

:rolleyes:
