I hate that Jack Warner - he's a xenophobic babe.
Anyone remember when he went on about everybody in Europe hates England/the English in 2007? He also said of the 2018 bid, that he'd make sure England wouldn't get it....all in 2007.
I wonder why we (England bid team) ever bothered to court this racist for his vote. I wrote to the FA at the time and asked them how his comments sat with FIFA's "Kick Racism out of Football" campaign...
I hope he goes down like the babe he is....

In his interview with the BBC, Warner makes it clear he will do all he can to fight any bid from Europe to stage the World Cup in 2018. "If by chance, in 2018, the World Cup were to go to Europe, I'm quite sure, with the English luck as it is, they won't get it," said Warner, 64.
"It'll be Italy, Spain, or it might even be France. Nobody in Europe likes England. England - who invented the sport - has never had any impact on world football. England at no time has had the love and support of Europe. For Europe, England is an irritant. There are moves to give it to England. I must fight that."
The former Sports Minister Richard Caborn, who is now the government's ambassador for the 2018 bid, said: "I think it's very unfortunate what Jack Warner is saying but I can understand that he's fighting his corner as president of CONCACAF."
