But the chief operating officer of United kingdom Sport, which is involved in an ongoing feasibility study, whether to apply, stated, that, in his opinion, the plans were not derailed.
Simon Morton for Digital, cultural, media and sports committee said: "I was at the match, it was pretty awful and it was the opposite of that, as we would like, to feel the big sporting events.
"But I don't think so, that it reflects the manner, how this country organizes sporting events. We have an excellent reputation, and not only thanks to the organization of excellent events, but also thanks to organizing safe and secure events.
"We have to find a balance here. It was unacceptable, but i think, that most countries around the world would recognize, that it does not reflect that, which usually happens.
“As for the offer, I think, that the only one, what can i say there, is the president of UEFA (Alexander Ceferin), who is a key person in this process, was recorded in it, that this will have no effect on our offer.
"Lessons must be learned, The FA commissioned a review from Baroness Casey. It is very serious. But I don't think so, that it is an offering in smoke.'
Morton bol požiadaný o svoj pohľad na dvojročné majstrovstvá sveta – o čom FIFA v súčasnosti konzultuje.
“What would I say about the general context of the sports calendar, it is, that we are concerned about the oversaturation of sporting events in terms of athlete welfare," he said.
“Jedným z dôvodov, why is the sport so popular?, is its lack. when we invested in one of them, that when we organize events, you want to know, that it is special, pretože sa zúčastňujete majstrovstiev sveta.”
"If it was 10 world championships annually, it would mean so much to the public? I don't think so, that would.
"It is important, that when the public goes to the World Cup, vie, that they watch the best athletes in the world.
"One of the risks at the moment of the increasing volume of sports competitions is, that in sports we can see a number of competing or fragmented divisions, a bit like darts or boxing, you are not quite sure, which belt they are fighting for.
"I think so, that the oversaturation of competitive sporting events is a real risk."
Downing Avenue insisted, that offer to year 2030 she was "very strong" despite the chaotic scenes at Wembley.
The Prime Minister's Official Spokesman when asked about the impact of the Wembley issues on the bid within a year 2030 he admitted, that "there are important lessons to be learned", but he added: “Our reputation for hosting world-class sporting events is strong. Next year we will host the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, the Women's Euros and the Rugby World Cup.
“Combined Great Britain and Ireland World Cup offer for a year 2030 would be a very strong contender."
Morton stated, that the five-nation approach was "truly collaborative", and said: "This process led us to this, to start researching other mega events, which can be jointly organized between decentralized governments, and there are two or three, which look very promising. . “
To that comment later in the hearing, Morton said, that he cannot post in a public forum, which events are being investigated, but may share this information privately with the committee.
DCMS committee chairman Julian Knight asked Morton, whether a fundamental reform of the English FA is a prerequisite for submitting an offer within a year 2030.
"That will be the final verdict for the government, but my opinion would be, that it is not a prerequisite,Morton said.
He got a question, whether all five bidding nations would automatically qualify for the final as hosts.
“Je to v diskusii. We don't know, how many spaces or beds FIFA would provide,” odpovedal.
"The guide to offers will not be published until the first quarter of next year. Only when we see them, five football associations agree between them, how would they solve it, if there were less than five.
“I think, that there is a general consensus, but some fine-tuning needs to be done in this regard.'
In question, what are the options, Morton replied: “Hypoteticky by ste mohli losovať, you could look at the world ranking. You could have playoff matches between countries. Hypoteticky by ste mohli vymyslieť veľa rôznych scenárov.”
