It will be to do with the company who organise the friendlies (would imagine its the same one who arranged Man U v Lyon last year and Liverpool v Napoli a few years back) wanting the stadium with the largest capacity to make most money. Its better that this time they have 1 Scottish team involved, but is annoying that its one of the Old firm playing in Edinburgh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

periodictabledancer Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Do we have to have these scumbags in Edinburgh ? Why can't it be played at Ibrox ? No doubt the SRU are desperate for the cash but the thought of the dregs of Scottish society descending on Edinburgh is very depressing. Definitely a day to avoid the city centre.

Will take a lot longer than a season if the current Old Trafford was to be completely flattened. More likely is they will build on a new site and continue to play in the existing stadium or if that is financially unviable they will renovate Old Trafford a stand at a time and continue to play there throughout.

Parasites so they are. It's up to people of course whether to attend, but it's a shite spectacle, a training match with zero atmosphere.

From what I’ve seen of it, it looks like flatten and rebuild on same /adjacent site appears to be the most likely option. Tottenham style. But Wembley being just up the road made that easier for Tottenham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a rule against it? It could be that they’ve spoken to all the options for neutral stadiums, and Murrayfield offered the best financial / logistical package. The neutral ground possibilities for them on British soil are: Wembley, Cardiff, Twickenham, Hampden and Murrayfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Findlay Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 This really grits my shit Play at Murrayfield for a lucrative pre-season friendly. Suggest they come through here for a League/Scottish semi final, and the gruesome twosome throw the toys out the pram as soon as they can. Police Scotland should, but won't, tell them to GTF.
