Jambo-Fox Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 I’d be very surprised if any regular Hearts match attending fans go to this match. Actually I’d be surprised if any regular match attending fans (of any club) go to it!! Who would pay a lot of money to watch a training match?? Perhaps £10 but no more! If by some unfortunate chain of events you do attend take care of your, watch, wallet and hub caps!! There will be some opportunists taking advantage of ‘football match virgins’!!

Can't see the attraction in watching multi-millionaires in a soul-less arena surrounded by tourists. Needless to say, if Man Utd were playing Real Madrid at Murrayfield and the tickets were £10 a pop, I still wouldn't be that arsed to go. They turned shite so you lost interest.

You'll probably find a considerable number of fans from all over Scotland coming to see the six times European Champions and Napoli. And I'll bet they regularly watch their own favourite teams. And your pathetic stereotyping of Liverpudlians was just that, pathetic. Edited July 26, 2019 by Seymour M Hersh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve got a £22 ticket but would have paid much more to see a game with the current Champions League winners. After paying £12 for us against Stenhousemuir (which I class as a ‘competitive friendly’) and watching lower level of players not at their peak, I gladly pay much more to see a game with the quality players that will be on show on Sunday even if it lacks the ‘competitive’ aspect.

Brave Hearts Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/49129123 Scottish Rugby have "given some consideration" to bidding to host a Champions League final at Murrayfield, says chief operating officer Dominic McKay. A pre-season friendly between Liverpool and Napoli on Sunday has sold out the 67,000-seat ground in Edinburgh. McKay says Scottish Rugby has also discussed the possibility of hosting a major international football match. "We would always welcome conversations with any rights holder," he said. Scottish FA opts to stay at Hampden Murrayfield 'doesn't feel like football stadium' "Whether that's the European Cup, or the Rugby World Cup, we're open for business and we want to make sure this wonderful asset is enjoyed by as many people as possible." Murrayfield hosted Celtic's European games while Parkhead was used for the 2014 Commonwealth Games, as well as Hearts' matches while Tynecastle was being redeveloped. It also played host to a Scottish League Cup semi-final between those two clubs last October. The Scottish FA had examined the possibility of moving to Murrayfield before coming to an agreement with Queen's Park for the purchase of the national football stadium at Hampden Park in Glasgow. And McKay said any bid for football matches would have to be done after talks with the Scottish FA. "We have a great relationship with our friends at the SFA and collaboration is very important," McKay told BBC Scotland. "Whatever we do in future, we're likely to do in collaboration. "We'd be delighted to host any major events. It's something we're always keeping under constant review. A Champions League final coming to Edinburgh would be fitting of a country and the city."

Brave Hearts Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 With us getting last seasons League Cup semi final moved to Murrayfield and that game being sold out between the Jambos and the tic’s, then now followed by a sold out friendly game between current Champions League winners Liverpool and Napoli, I’m all for promoting big game football being played in Edinburgh. Great news for fans of football not just parochial fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Waverley between platform 13 and 14 the queue for customers getting tickets at their end of their journey is horrendous. Looks like this could be an yearly event at Murryfield.
