I’d prefer Darlington (sponsored by CarlinG DARLING etc etc) to Sheffield anyway

[La Peneloupée monte le son]

Can we NOT KID OURSELVES that Sheffield will make it onto the shortlist and just GET ON with the business end of things thanks (a fight to the death between Manchester and Glasgow, with @VoR recreating Celine Dion's "let them touch those things they have never touched before!" speech about the Leeds bid)

 

[Soldi Elektronike]

Four cities then?

 

[La Peneloupée monte le son]

Manchester, Glasgow, Leeds, London. *Maybe* Birmingham or Newcastle over London.

 

[KNT]

My money is on Port Stanley, Jaywick, Cheadle and... Darlington.

 

[La Peneloupée monte le son]

Jaywick's got Elton on unfortunately

 

[Cerro de Casa]

It must be the north
Let’s LEVEL UP!!!

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Manchester, Glasgow, Leeds, London. *Maybe* Birmingham or Newcastle over London.

I predict

Glasgow
London
Birmingham

 

[Cerro de Casa]

If it’s between Leeds and Sheffield

[KNT]

I predict

A Riot will be performed by Svetlana Laboda to open Sheffield 2023.

 

[La Peneloupée monte le son]

Leeds is almost certainly on the shortlist.

 

[KNT]

Is the shortlist all the cities that have submitted actual bids (as in not just announcing their interest on social media) or is it whittled down?

No, it's whittled down. There've been at least 13 bids.
