Quote from: London Villan on November 16, 2022, 02:05:58 PMWest ham, old trafford, Sunderland and the smaller dublin one would be my guess.From an Irish perspective, I would say Casement Park then Croke Park are more likely to be cut than the Aviva.
West ham, old trafford, Sunderland and the smaller dublin one would be my guess.

A final list of 10 will be submitted in April 2023.Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales each have one stadium and the Republic of Ireland two, with the remaining nine in England, including two in the north-east, which was controversially overlooked for this year’s Women’s European Championship.The stadiums selected are: Villa Park, Everton Stadium, London Stadium, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Wembley Stadium, Etihad Stadium, St James’ Park, Stadium of Light, Old Trafford, Dublin Arena, Croke Park, Belfast Casement Park Stadium, Hampden Park and the Principality Stadium in Cardiff.The UK government is thought to be confident that its joint bid will be approved by Uefa, with Turkey the only other country in the running. Russia had announced its intention to bid but was ruled out by its Uefa ban from football since its invasion of Ukraine. Uefa’s executive committee will decide the hosts in September 2023.A joint statement from the UK nations and Ireland outlining their preliminary vision for the tournament said all stadiums were well connected. It added: “The UK and Ireland’s track record of hosting successful major sporting events over many decades means we have the expertise and experience to take this world-class tournament to new heights.”The UK and Ireland this year shelved plans to host the 2030 World Cup. The English Football Association’s chief executive, Mark Bullingham, cited vast expense and “many areas of uncertainty”.No Anfield or Emirates. Four of the shortlisted venues will lose out when the final choice of 10 is made.Anfield doesn't qualify for UEFAs criteria as the pitch is too small, so couldn't be used - Everton will have a much better ground by then anyway, albeit smaller. No surprise really on The Emirates either, given there are 3 bigger grounds to pick in London already. What will be a real pisser is when they select West Ham's ground to justify all the public money that has gone into it, despite it being completely crap for football.Hopefully by 2028 we won't just have had the North Stand rebuilt, and will have a new 20k Witton Lane stand ready to open in time to parade our 4th successive quadruple.Everton's might never get finished, they still haven't got all the funding in place and if it got canned, they've got to pay to have the site put back as it was.

Maybe they could just get Coventry and Small Heath to ground share there instead.
Everton added it was confident its overall finances were robust and that the stadium would be built on time.A spokesman for Moshiri said he was “perplexed” by the Guardian’s questions about the club’s finances and suggested there was no public interest in analysing the club’s funding. He added that Everton was in rude financial health with access and relationships to a range of well-known lenders.As evidence of the club’s robust finances, the owner also said that Everton had low borrowings – pointing to net debts of £58.2m to the end of June 2021.That figure is correct and comes directly from the club’s accounts – but it is arguably not quite the full story as it masks the size of the owner’s contribution: arcane accounting standards mean that a further £248.2m in “loans” owed to Moshiri when the accounts were filed have been classified as “equity”.

The Rep of Ireland grounds are both in Dublin - isn't there a suitable ground in another part of the country so it could be shared out a bit?Above all, does it mean that all 5 countries will qualify automatically?
The shame about the Aviva is the tiny section behind one of the goals. Like the dip in tiers at Brighton's Amex stadium, makes it look a bit tinpot. Impressive structure from the outside though.
