RUMBELOWS91 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 12 stadiums originally planned, dotted round Europe. Surely that won't happen? If it is to go ahead it will surely be with limited spectators. If, by the end of this season we have already tested the safety of stadiums on limited capacities, surely London and surrounding areas is the only option? Wembley Emirates Spurs Chelsea West Ham Brentford Reading Southampton Brighton All modern stadiums in a 60 mile radius. Or, should it just be scrapped?

The only way is S6 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 UEFA meet early March with their plan for the Euros. This gives them chance to hear from all venue countries on how their Covid plans are progressing. With our vaccine roll-out going so well already, It looks like Wembley's fixtures are pretty secure. The final, both semis and a round of 16. Plus our group games. The only variable is fans. Either a percentage of the capacity or none. Another reason for the March decision is to refund fans for tickets, or notify them of venue changes. UEFA produced a new set of T's & C's and in those if a venue is changed but you can't get to the new one, you lose your money!! Ironically, come the summer, we could be the best vaccinated country (UK) in Europe. I could see a scenario where the whole thing was moved here. Don't even begin to ask me how incoming fans would be accepted regarding the virus.........or vice versa us going there. All I know is: SAGA are now running coach holidays abroad because they know everyone in their catchment group will be safe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could actually just do a London competition there are that many good stadiums there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighworthOwl Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Make it 5 a side and play it in a sports hall. One venue for all games. I bet Belgium would have an awesome 5 a side team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night King Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 It’ll never happen due to the loss in finances but I’d scrap it completely and just host the next one in 2024. I’d extend the domestic and European season by 4 weeks and give the players a decent rest before another season and world cup year. The workload on the top players is already ridiculous at the moment without any international football. Just look at the number of injuries knocking about.

The only way is S6 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 UEFA has extended it's decision about the finals into April now. They still genuinely want all 12 host cities to host their scheduled games. Seems a tad optimistic to me. Failing this, I can see more games coming here, considering the early success of our vaccination programme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're making a decision in April, that would suggest they're already working on a contingency plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
