U.K. & Ireland Euro 2028 bid dossier has been submitted to UEFA today. Proposed stadiums: Wembley, Aston Villa, Everton, West Ham, Spurs, Man City, Man United, Newcastle, Sunderland. In Dublin, Aviva & Croke Park In Belfast, Casement Park In Glasgow, Hampden In Cardiff, Millennium Stadium
Goodison Park is over 40k (40,394 to be precise), but as you say, they'll be in their new 52k stadium by then anyway.
I'm sure Casement Park will be very popular with the likes of Linfield and Glentoran. The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
the pitch being about 100 metres from the stands behind the goal you need binoculars to see the other end it's soulless **** noise murrayfield is a far better stadium could easily have the football played there but the sfa won't give up hampden
That's OK, we don't want Leeds or one of the Sheffield clubs competing at the top of English football.
Best dig out your telescope for St James' Park and the Stadium of light then...Unless they switch to Twickenham
not sure how you can compare stadium of light to hampden and they don't need to switch to twickenham because wembleys there hampdens ****e and you know it
The area where we are housed for away games at Sunderland is miles from the pitch,why isn't it comparable? And the Scottish FA don't need to switch to Murrayfield because Hampden is there? If I thought Hampden was ****e I wouldn't be wasting time responding!
You will be the nearer the centre circle at those with the steeper raked stands than at Hampden behind the goals with that large empty semi circle area and then more gently sloping stands. Doesn’ affect atmosphere. There are greater distances from the pitch at Napoli and a lot of grounds in Europe and South America with atmospheres we can only dream about.
UEFA confirms bids received from UK and Turkey for men’s Euro 2028 and Turkey and Italy for men's Euro 2032.
What is it with the FA that they won't do a deal with the rugby union lot? When Wembley was getting done up they used Cardiff rather than the excellent Twickenham. Seems a similar situation in Scotland too.
There are restrictions on how many times a year Twickenham can be used. Last time the FA wanted to use it the RU agreed but the council said no as it would have exceeded the limit.
