Morocco in joint bid with Spain and Portugal to host 2030 World Cup

Glad to see this bid back on the cards - would be my favourite by far covering Europe, Africa and the Arab world.
Was mooted in the past but then Spain and Morocco fell out over some unrelated political issues (still plenty of time for them to fall out again and scupper the bid!)
Spain/Portugal then tried for the sympathy vote by adding Ukraine instead of Morocco.
Morocco meanwhile started talking about a North African World Cup but Saudi Arabia fecked that with a bizarre triple bid (Saudi, Egypt, Greece?!).
Anyway Africa are due another World Cup and Morocco's strong showing in the last WC makes it as good an option as any.
