    DOSB plans to go for the same bid for all three cycles as it is now (we’ll see about 2036…but it’s not written off yet). BTW Sunday there are local elections in Bavaria, so we’ll get a new city council and - likely after a run-off in two weeks - either the same or a new mayor in Munich. The social dem incumbent and clear fave has managed to get himself in a stupid affair about his role on the board of FC Bayern and his undeclared remuneration for it, plus he let the N word slip during the last council meeting (but apologised immediately). He’ll likely still win but it could become a bit more interesting now. Whatever the outcome all three major parties (social dem, conservatives, greens) are pro-Olympics and so do not expect any change to Munich’s intent after the election.

    Yes. Though then the 77 should have walked out really. If half of the NPC stayed away, it would set a signal.

    Germany will join the OC boycott, and rightly so. That farce by the IPC should not deserve any attention. A pity for the athletes and the performers, but this shameless rehabilitation of Russia is truly sickening.

    He does not care if Israel plays at the WC either. He doesn’t care about anything other than his money and his ego.

    People like Merz and Rutte who sit there silently while he insults our allies are very much enabling him too, and it makes me really angry (apart from many other reasons to be angry about thus awful Chancellor - there is a reason Merkel managed to keep him away from power for two decades, she knew he’s as arrogant as ignorant).
  6. StefanMUC
    What’s most embarrassing is that next to him there sat our Chancellor, completely out of his depth as always and brown-nosing the orange horror clown.

    The pool of potential winter hosts/continents is much smaller though, so back to back there is more likely.

    Well, I’ll be a bit less enthusiastic. Any successful Italian summer bid would completely destroy German hopes for hosting not only in 2036, but also 2040 and very likely 2044 as well, if not even 2048. Quite frankly, I’ll be honest to say Italy can queue up behind us for a time.
  9. StefanMUC
    Or the ones from cities/countries bidding for that year too…

    Don’t forget that Russia invaded Georgia just at the start of Beijing 2008 too (and the Crimea invasion was carefully timed until after the Olympics).

    I wouldn’t hold my breath for the IOC to take a decision on that (i.e. expelling Israel and the US).

    The three debuts were Benin, Guinea-Bissau and the UAE.

    A year in Birmingham sounds scary, one day was enough for me But sure, go for it! I wish I had done it when I was your age.
  14. StefanMUC
    Serves the IPC right. Though I guess they’re being used as the canary in the coalmine by the IOC to see whether time is already convenient to let Russia back into the big game(s).

    Boule sports (Pétanque, Boccia…) seem more like the curling summer equivalent though?
