CL Final Venue | Stade de France named as new venue

[Keepingthefaithsince1976]

It would have to be at a Rugby Stadium if in Edinburgh. Murrayfield has its advantages apart from the running track in front of the stand, but it’s not on UEFA’s list of approved stadia. A shame but it will not be in Edinburgh.

Does anyone have a current list of the Uefa approved stadia for the final please? Surely the Etihad is on it as its a top class venue.

My view of Russia is based on the fact that there is no opposition for Putin, he does not allow it.

At least in our country we can get rid of those in power if we want a change.

It is the Russian people that I feel sorry for nothing much has changed in that country since the rule of the Tsar's.

Much has changed. But as per Ric's comment, let's stick to the football interesting as this topic is.

Hearts have staged Euro ties at Murrayfield so I thought it would be OK for the final. Hope one day to see City at Tynecastle clash of my two favourite clubs.

Not read all this thread but they’re saying it can’t be Wembley as it’s playoff weekend, those games could be moved to the Lego Arena up here. About 30k tickets per club would be more than enough (10k for the hangers on).

Your point being?

Don't upset Vlad?

UEFA will just have to cut it's cloth accordingly or/and attract new sponsors.

With all the new global TV deals, that shouldn't be too much of a problem ?

I doubt it. Not until the outside walkways have been re-painted and the diabolic transport links have been rectified, apparently

Isn’t one of the qualifying criteria that the stadium holds 60,000+?

I guess last year was a one off due to the restrictions.

Needs to be a Category 4 stadium with a capacity not less than 60,000 but preferably over 70,000.

Out of the frying pan, into the firing line.

 

[Champions Again Ole Ole]

Was there a champions league final in Istanbul or were they all cancelled? Surely that has to be one of the front runners if they go screwed over by covid
