UK & Ireland Euro 2028 Stadiums

[ClaretsPadiham]

1. Wembley Stadium (London) (capacity 90,652)
2. Principality Stadium (Cardiff) (73,952)
3. Tottenham Hotspur Stadium (London) (62,322)
4. Etihad Stadium (Manchester) (61,000)
5. Everton Stadium (Liverpool) (52,679)
6. St James' Park (Newcastle) (52,305)
7. Villa Park (Birmingham) (52,190)
8. Hampden Park (Glasgow) (52,032)
9. Aviva Stadium (Dublin) (51,711)
10. Casement Park (Belfast) (34,500)

About right ? Surprised Anfield isn’t on the list, very historic and had lots of work done recently to make it a top modern stadium.

Mad how Old Trafford was the best stadium in the country even as little as 10 years ago but has been left to rot and isn’t even considered even though it’s the highest capacity club ground in the country.

I’d say it’s bang on a good spread of grounds around the country. Let’s hope all England’s games aren’t at Wembley. Be decent if there a localish one to us.

How does qualifying work with four countries hosting?

[ClaretsPadiham]

Worth noticing Aston Villa have plans in place for a 100m redevelopment of the North Stand to be finished by 2026 which will take the capacity of Villa Park from 42k to just over 50k.

[Tricky Trevor]

I take it that is the Bramley Dock and not Goodison?
Could be hosting Bury by 2028.

Yeah be a top ground that when it’s finally done, be funny if they are in the Championship.

I went to old Trafford in 2017 and it wasn’t that good even then
It felt, and looked, dated

It’s no shock that it’s not on the list for an international tournament

It's a shocking, decaying mess and nowhere near the quality of the newer ground.

Liverpudlians don't even consider themselves English nevermind living in the UK..

[Yanquiclaret]

Pretty sure all nations need to qualify by playing in the qualifiers. All five nations are not getting a pass into the tournament itself.

You might want to check the World Cup 2030 into

6 countries get automatic qualification

[4midable]

Old trafford reminds me on a lego set from the 80s

Sounds like all five nations will go into qualifying, but they'll save 2 spaces free for those that miss out. Not sure what happens if more than 2 don't qualify.

If Everton go bust before Bramley Dock is finished, could Liverpool buy it ?

I read Anfield's pitch size doesn't meet regulations. They can't host European finals either.

They’d lose approx 10,000 paying supporters if they did.

[Petersa]

Not wanting to sound like a cranky conspiracy theorist but do clubs/ground owners get money upfront for the tournament? Could be a convenient way to get Everton some help from the FA over their FFP charges

[TheOriginalLongsider]

Casement Park hasn’t even started to be built yet.

[edison]

Casement Park hasn’t even started to be built yet.

Correct and they (politicians) are already bickering about it. Been lying dormant for the guts of a decade.

[Claret Till I Die]

Could be interesting if England end up playing at Casement Park...

[edison]

Very interesting. Even if Northern Ireland end up playing there

Even thou i hate the GAA the idea of the UK paying for a GAA stadium makes me smile .
