With places like Rochdale and Bristol already announcing their intent to bid for WC matches in 2013, I was wondering if Sheffield would do the same.

I would love to see them host a WC match, does anyone happen to know if they are likely to bid?

They'll probably be reseeding and have to play at Spinkhill!

Weve already stated that Bramall Lane will be applying for a fixture and to possibly host a team

great news. got a link to the story by any chance?

There was a piece in the Sheffield Stir about it but I dunno how to post links, err a little help here someone please....

Here ya go

Bristol????? It's not even a hotbed of the 15 a side game these days.

Gaelic ? Hurling ? Camogie ?

Hope we get a game! England vs Ireland at, hopefully a packed Bramall Lane with Aston coaching the Irish, just think what that could do for the Eagles profile in the city!

That would be best case scenario I think. If not that match, hopefully a NZ match and/or even a match in the knockout phase, since Sheffield has big enough stadiums.

Sheffield could just host the world cup

share the games evenly between DVS, BL and Hillsborough and if Tonga need to play Scotland at Mount St. Mary's then so be it
