If you were getting ready to start at one of Battersea’s amazing pubs before jetting down to Wembley Stadium to watch the World Cup in eight years time, think again because the World Cup – well it ain’t coming home.

England lose their World Cup bid - here's what people in and around Battersea had to say!

We’ve lost our £15 million bid to Russia! Here's reaction from Twitter:

@ianfreeman says: Oh well, there y’go. Great shame. Well done and good luck to Russia. #england2018 #worldcup2018

@mario says England knocked out in the first round? Didn't realise the world cup had already started!

@JasonRosam says How terrible. We didn't win. We was robbed! We still have the Olympics in 2012 and that will be fantastic!!!

@kirstymalcolm says Waiting for the #worldcupbids result is more drawn out than xfactor!!

Qatar will host the World Cup in 2022.

Anyone booking tickets to either Russia or Qatar? How are YOU feeling about England losing the World Cup bid? We've got the Olympics, Wimbledon ... the list goes on... is that enough for us?
