seen to stadiums we've got a new stadium but bush aires he's now getting to a stage where you can have some very very good stadiums i mean i went to dress yesterday and i'll tell you are there is a touch stick stadium there and i just wish that england got the kind of one look they've got it's the wall way up to the garden as the fountains the carparks the stadium itself fine. trash to her just over six years to go to russia host of two thousand and eighteen world com it's going to take a lot of hard work to get the country ready however the government and top officials are already making strange ahead of branch oldham and it's pretty bumpy if we don't see. staying in russia and second bottom tom have been relegated after seven years in the top flight following a one will defeat it clearly as a better off which sealed their fate with two games to go on and on bobby orr netted the only goal after just six minutes after rising at the far post. and also
