WP:CRYSTAL. We don't know if there will be a bid by England to host the 2030 World Cup. Indeed, most of the recent reporting has suggested if there is a bid involving England, it would also involve other neighbouring countries.

But we don't even know if this will occur. WP:CRYSTAL states "Individual scheduled or expected future events should be included only if the event is notable and almost certain to take place" (my emphasis). The recent reporting indicates that any bid would be a UK, or UK and Ireland, bid. Therefore an "England" World Cup bid is far from certain to take place.

It's not really an "event," though, and it passes WP:GNG regardless. SportingFlyer talk 14:53, 25 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
