Poland and Ukraine revealed today that they will lauch a joint bid to host the Euro2012

"The polish governament decided to accept the ukranian invitation to present a joint bid to host the 2012 euro cup, we will build 4 or 5 new stadiums" said the Marek Ziolkowski, polish ambassador in Kiev.

I would love to see EURO in poland. I have a bunch of friends from there.

I was under the impression that the next European Championship, jointly hosted by Austria & Switzerland in 2008, was to be the last jointly hosted championship.

Have UEFA changed their mind?

i think it was FIFA that said that.

They won't get it because Greece will :D

after the attendance in the Olympics, i don't think so.

I don't like the idea of joint nations hosting a tournament (:/), this would be great for Eastern Europe though if it did happen.

Holland/Belgium was the best jointly hosted EURO-tournament and there will be no better. And I'm not biased at all!

First country that comes up in my mind is Italy. Great stadiums, great weather, soccer crazy country.

The attendance of the Olympics has nothing to do with hosting the European Football Championship.

And secondly, did you even watch any of the IMPORTANT events? Because they were all packed. Or did you spend your time watching preliminary rounds of table tennis and baseball?

And you don't? (H) .......:(

have they lost their f**king minds? Poland soccer architecture is so retarded and I don't think it'll change in next 50 years. All what those jackasses are able to do is promise and spend our money.


Sorry I got nervous :crazyboy:

Poland and Ukraine are two big to host this tournament together...imagine travelling from Kiev to Poznan :crazyboy: And there would be mess because of EU/nonEU border.

And seriously I can hardly imagine Poland being capable of organizing Euro in 2012, not to mention Ukraine :rolleyes:

Seriously though, you guys make no sense. You can't honestly believe because people didn't want to go see preliminary events for crappy sports that they wont go to see top flight European soccer.

Now go start smoking.

of course!

Countries I would like to see bid:

Italy
Spain
Russia
Turkey
Czech Rep.
Greece
Vatican City?

LOL, wtf do the Olympics have to do with a Euro cup? First of all, the preliminaries were not packed in ANY Olympic event, so I wouldn't have expected that to change it with Greece. Besides, a lot of people did not want to go because they were scared of a terrorist attack. The world has changed since 9/11 and the Madrid bombing...

The Greek Olympics were named the best Olympics to date from MANY television stations, so don't give me that sh!t about Greece.

Does the Vatican even have a national football team?

no :rolleyes:
it was only a joke

It's not a nation anyway.

really :o
:crazyboy:

Poland and Ukraine, eh? I'm all for it. Eastern Europe is littered with nice women. Plus, once England are knocked out, I can pop along to Chernobyl.

Oh, one more thing. Greece doesn't have the money to host EURO2012. They'll be in debt because of the Olympics for the next 20 years or so.

I'm sure that Ukraine has more money than Greece right?
