Whilst we are getting all underwhelmed by Woy's brief summer jaunt to Poland and the Ukraine, did you know that UEFA's deadline for applications to host the Euro 2020 Finals ends in 12 days on 15 May 2012?

As it stands only Turkey has applied and unless anyone else puts in a last-minute e-Bay style bid in the final few hours, Turkey will win without contest.

Whenever the FA wants to host anything, it seems that the world and his wife want to get in on the act.

More to the point why not just have Scotland, N. Ireland, Wales and Faroe Islands ... Actually started this as a joke but more I think about it ...

So someone from the Scottish and Georgian Football Associations must have spotted my thread about this and jumped in with their proposed bids on deadline day. By The Power of Pistonheads!

So we've got either Turkey, Georgia or an incestuous menage a trois of Scotland/Wales/Ireland to choose from. England would have walked it.
