It would be truly fantastic news for Morocco. The level of crime in South Africa would put a lot of people off from going there. But does Morocco have the stadia to hold a tournament of this size?

Prime Minister Howard is also talking of putting a bid in for a later world cup. He modestly stated that someone else may be Prime Minister by then. (That's if we are lucky enough to get him out of office.) Bron.

In breaking news we can report that speculation is mounting that the 2010 World Cup finals may be taken away from South Africa.
The country is already behind in getting stadiums ready for the competition, but FIFA president Sepp Blatter is attempting to downplay the crisis and will not confirm that moves are afoot to move the finals elsewhere.
However, sources close to the US soccer federation say there are two countries on standby to host the tournament who have been asked by FIFA to get stadiums ready just in case.
The nations mentioned are the UK and Morocco both of whom are said to be on standby should South Africa fail to live up to FIFA's expectations. If such a drastic change is made it is likely that Morocco would host the cup.
