Spurs is out, under 40,000 capacity.

Cannot see them using 4 in London either.

Leeds and the Stadium of Light would be used and probably one of the Sheffield ones.

 

[Grovesy]

Yer stadium of light would be in there, the government will builf loads of new stadiums for the finals anyway so this thread its pretty pointless,

feel kind of stupid now

 

[JJ McClure]

Would they also use two in Manchester?

 

[Napper]

The best 3 stadiums in the country are

Wembley
Old Trafford
Emirates
Eastlands
St James Park
Villa Park

In that order

Numerous plastic stadiums to choose from as well I gues

Reebok
Madjeski (if bigger capacity)
MK Dons

 

[Titanic]

Falmer will be 40,000 capacity by then

Depends how many they need.

They would probably use Wembley and the Emirates in London. Then one in Birmingham, one in Liverpool (new Liverpool ground), one in Manchester, Leeds, one Sheffield one, 2 in the North East. That is 9, they would probably need 10 to 12.

Worryingly Reading is one of those that could probably be increased up to about 40,000....

2 in North East: Newcastle and Sunderland

4 in North West: Man City, Man United, Liverpool, Everton

2 in Yorkshire: Sheff Weds, Leeds

1 in Midlands: Villa Park

3 in London: Emirates, Wembley, Stamford Bridge

Plus perhaps they will go for a British bid and have some games at the Millennium Stadium or perhaps Hampden Park/Celtic/Rangers.

 

[Grovesy]

They would have to look at twikenham, may be a egg chaser ground but its a 80,000 seater

 

[Napper]

didnt the euro's have shite crowds though ? from memory there most games had empty stadiums. Or am I on my roundabout again ?

 

[Grovesy]

Roundabout

 

[cardboard]

London is the only City that the MAY use more than 1 stadium.

There is no way they will use 3 or 4 in London, 2 in Liverpool and 2 in Manchester.


Look back to Germany this year

Reading in the paper last week, the potential 2018 bid will be solely English. As England, Scotland & Wales each have their own football federations, a UK bid would probably not be accepted.

FIFA are not keen on joint bids as it means more teams qualify automatically.

 

[Grovesy]

My theory is that when we get the world cup the south will need to be represented, so the government will suddenly plough millions into falmar making it a 70,000 seater
