Bryan Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Should Scotland bid to host this as we will find it hard to host bigger tournaments We could use e.g. Easter Road St Mirren Park East End Park Falkirk Stadium Hampden for Final "Boy, I got vision, and the rest of the world wears bifocals."

WeegieTon Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Interesting Bryan. I wonder what the set criteria would be for it I.E. size of stadium, facilities etc. Would love to see something like this coming to Scotland. If you have a problem with me, text me. If you dont have my number then you don't know me well enough to have a problem with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeegieTon Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 looking at past events between 8,000 and 30,000 Could add Rugby Park, Fir Park, Dens Park etc to that list then.

xj2006 Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Could add Rugby Park, Fir Park, Dens Park etc to that list then. Unless Motherwell do something to sort out their playing surface I would not recommend Fir Park McDermaid Park in Perth would be an ideal venue central location and 10,000 all seater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toby Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 New Broomfield would be another venue that could be considered, but after the expense FIFA went to to keep the slum dwellers and the shanty towns out of the sight of tourists at the World Cup in South Africa, would UEFA want to go to the same expense to make Airdrie, Paisley and Falkirk attractive to tourists?

Cawston Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Should Scotland bid to host this as we will find it hard to host bigger tournaments We could use e.g. Easter Road St Mirren Park East End Park Falkirk Stadium Hampden for Final Absolutely we should. The U-16 tournament was tremendous and pulled in huge crowds, no reason why there wouldn't be the same response for the U21's. Along the track the train came puffin, Morton 1 Celtic nuffin.

Stevie Aitken's Love Child Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 I would imagine that 8 Stadiums would be needed. How about New Aberdeen Stadium (21,000 capacity) Easter Road (21,000 capacity) Rugby Park (18,000 capacity) Tynecastle (17,000 capacity) Tannadice (12,500 capacity) Almondvale (10,000 capacity) New Broomfield (10,000 capacity) McDairmid Park (10,000 capacity) Could also use the likes of the Caledonian Stadium in Inverness, St Mirren Park and The Falkirk Stadium if needed. Keeping Hampden for the Final (52,000 capacity) The likes of Ibrox and Celtic Park would be too big for group games you'd imagine, so no point in using them. Could be something worth looking into.

GMFC14 Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Id use Ibrox or Parkhead for the final, the stands at Hampden are too far away from the pitch. Ibrox and Parkhead are alot closer and would lead to a better atmosphere I reckon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
