BBC SPORT | Football | Fifa abandons World Cup rotation
Fifa has dropped its policy of rotating the World Cup between continents, opening the way for England to bid to stage the tournament in 2018.
The Football Association said the news was "very encouraging" and said there was a strong case for England to bid.
Chief executive Brian Barwick said: "It is exactly what we were hoping for and we will now discuss a timetable for a potential bid." Prime Minister Gordon Brown said an FA bid would have full government support.
