owls maniac Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Surely Belfast needs to host one game. Northern Ireland probably stands to gain the most from the exposure of hosting, be a real missed opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danblakemore Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Bit left field, but might see Saint Marys host one. Due to our smallish country, you may see loads of grounds just holding a single game maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Windsor Park only holds 18,000, probably needs an upgrade to at least 30,000 to host games. Dont see why not though if Northern Ireland can play there be great. Think after the scenes last summer with the crowds at the Euro Final I think Wembley can consider itself lucky to be hosting something like this again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bannofan Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 I'm not convinced I want to see tournaments in this country / U.K. , after the Euro final last year. Hopefully a lot of lessons will have been learnt from that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastern Posted March 23, 2022 Author Share Posted March 23, 2022 If it is 8 groups of 4 and two venues per group, sixteen stadiums will be needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
