Phil Holland: For the good of the game?

While FIFA's decision to abandon its policy of rotating the staging of the World Cup might be good news for a possible England bid for the 2018 event, it is a bitter blow for North and Central America.

On Sunday Wembley Stadium played host to the first-ever regular season NFL game outside North America when the Miami Dolphins played the New York Giants. While the game itself was a little disappointing, days of pre-game hype, promotional razzmatazz and the Dolphins rather charming cheerleading squad provided plenty of good clean fun for the Limeys.
