    Re: Euro 2028 coming to Wales

    At least we’ll be able to see some decent teams in the capital city.

      True. Watching teams like Swansea play has been tough going when you follow the No.1 team in Wales.

        Belfast isn't going to be hosting any matches now. There was always a doubt that Casement Park would be ready in time.

        Casement Park: 'Significant risk' stadium won't be built for Euro 2028
        https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cg7899k921ko
        NI secretary says there is "a significant risk that it would not be built in time" for Euro 2028.


        The Times are reporting that its matches will be going to Wembley (of course), Dublin, Glasgow and Cardiff.

          This is because England don't want to play friendly matches and land up like Germany did when they played friendlies,
          Missed this at the time, but does that mean that if 3 qualified by rights the other 2 would be given a free pass as hosts? Or does it mean that if 2 or more qualify that’s it? Right now you would probably only expect England to qualify so that would mean best 2 finishers from the other 4 based on group results. Is that right?

            Yes, that's my understanding. And as not great as the other 4 home nations are right now it would be very unusual for only England to get through given that half of Europe ends up going now, I'd be very surprised if there aren't at least 4 home nations in the final tournament when all is said and done. The last three Euros since expansion have seen 2, 3 and 4 home nations respectively.
