They would have been better off using Murrayfield.It's a rotten dump that's never been touched since the day it was cheaply rebuilt.
Don't think UEFA have been too impressed by it either the SFA did practically nothing with it in the lead up to the handover.
I mean imagine paying a small fortune in a reduced 12,000 capacity and being planted behind the goal bottom row and hardly seeing any of the action
Things like that don't go unnoticed.

Not something I like saying, but Hampden produced a nonevent atmosphere-wise.
The SFA needs to be rooted out from top to bottom, they are holding the game back at every turn.
There was a shot of the roof the other day and it was filthy no effort has been made on it.It started rusting weeks after they "done it up".
Why have they never made the effort to paint it or something, at least once.
It hasn't aged well and more though should have gone in to the refurbishment when it took place.When you see it from above it looks what it is.
A fucking dump.
Should have been bulldozed and built elsewhere, preferably in the central belt and not in Glasgow.
I was at it during the week to pick something up from the media compound,by %^*& I wish I refused the job.One thing that has been noticable during the Euro's is the standard of the stadiums. Hampden has to be the worst of them all and I wonder how it managed to get any games at all.
Glasgow is in the central belt.When you see it from above it looks what it is.

All the money pretty much went on the atrocious main stand everything else was done on the cheap.It hasn't aged well and more though should have gone in to the refurbishment when it took place.
Having said that i still love getting on the train from Central to Mount Florida to go to our games there. The buzz on the train and banter afterwards.
Just can't see where the money will come from to bring it up to the standard we are seeing in the rest of Europe.
Couldn't believe that either! If there's only 12,000 there at least put them in the half decent seats ffs!It's a rotten dump that's never been touched since the day it was cheaply rebuilt.

Yes i know smart arse,but much better having a new purpose built stadium outside of a big city.Hampden and Ibrox can be a nightmare getting to if the traffics bad.Glasgow is in the central belt.
The Magic Money Tree that the SNP have hidden away.It hasn't aged well and more though should have gone in to the refurbishment when it took place.

When was that ever not the case the think tank is still in session.They would have been better off using Murrayfield.

Ye can fkn poke that right up yer SFA shiter.€185 for a ticket there for Tuesday
Yes the SFA has always been incompetent as an organisation, but after being captured by The Filth mindset, it has become like Scottish politics, not just incompetent but also nepotistically corrupt into the bargain.When was that ever not the case the think tank is still in session.
It got games because the scotshit government promised fans would be allowed in. It is a complete shitholeOne thing that has been noticable during the Euro's is the standard of the stadiums. Hampden has to be the worst of them all and I wonder how it managed to get any games at all.
They made a pigs arse of the renovations . When you see the kind of stadiums in places like Hungary and khazakstan for hampden being the so called home of football it’s an utter disgraceful, soulless , garbage place to hold a match . £60 million spent and it needs demolished and rebuilt from scratch .I just don’t understand the design. It’s built like an Olympic stadium without the Olympic bit, like a running track.
Why not just make it a normal rectangular football stadium? The view from anywhere behind the goals is atrocious.
To be fair, there have been a couple of bomb threats in this competition. A car bomb was found in Italy and a terrorist was arrested for planning to use a bomb in Budapest. I think it's reasonable to be cautious with who they allow in.I was at it during the week to pick something up from the media compound,by %^*& I wish I refused the job.
See the shit I had to go through to get in to the car park (that’s where the compound is)
Had sniffer dogs sniffing my van and guys going round it with those mirrors that they look for bombs with.
Utter farce.
I beg to differ on the cheaply built!, compare the eighty odd million for Hamdump in comparison with Wales’s National Stadium, for approximately twenty mil more. Where I will agree it is a tip with an old fashioned running track of sorts round it, where it’s almost impossible to view. My own thoughts are far too many people made millions from it, like the M74 extension, as well, from the Council of Corruption, with the usual religious Cleek having their noses in it. In short Demolish it!It's a rotten dump that's never been touched since the day it was cheaply rebuilt.

We probably don't need a national stadium but I'd be sad to lose Hampden with its history and personal memories.Some cracking stadiums are hosting Euro 2020 games, then you have Hampden park.
That stadium is an embarrassment and should've been demolished years ago.
I read somewhere that's it up for a refurbishment in a couple of years time. Until that stadium is raised to the ground, there's no point throwing more cash at it.
Think the problem is underground access for team buses is now requiredWe don’t need a national stadium. Germany, Italy,Spain, Holland etc all manage fine without one.
Play the biggest games preferably at Ibrox or reluctantly the piggery if capacity is a major issue.
Scotland could play most other games at any of the diddy grounds for all the crowds they attract these days.
It needs more than a lick of paint. It looks delapidated and they need to renovate it,firstly to bring both ends behind the goals closer to the pitch and brought into the 21st century by adding a tier..It started rusting weeks after they "done it up".
Why have they never made the effort to paint it or something, at least once.
Shouldn’t have bothered with checks. Be doing us a favour if the whole place was blown to smithereens. No one hurt of course.To be fair, there have been a couple of bomb threats in this competition. A car bomb was found in Italy and a terrorist was arrested for planning to use a bomb in Budapest. I think it's reasonable to be cautious with who they allow in.
Considering the design of the stadium is any of that feasible ?It needs more than a lick of paint. It looks delapidated and they need to renovate it,firstly to bring both ends behind the goals closer to the pitch and brought into the 21st century by adding a tier..
As a season ticket holder from West Lothian I can confirm that both are a nightmare even when traffic is goodYes i know smart arse,but much better having a new purpose built stadium outside of a big city.Hampden and Ibrox can be a nightmare getting to if the traffics bad.
