So Hampden saved as the home of Scottish football. But would still like to see appropriate use of Murrayfield eg non-Weegie teams in Cup semis.

Queens Park have had a literal gun held to their head, complete stitch up but "probably" the right decision?!?

Don't agree with this TBH. I have always been a firm believer that the Capital should always host major sporting finals etc.

So the SFA said sell us the ground or we are moving? We have true humanitarians running the game...

A terrible waste of money.There’s no need for a national association to own a stadium .

To the contrary I quite enjoy a day out to hampden whenever we reach a semi-final/final. Think it would lose a bit of its novelty if I was only making a trip up to murrayfield. Getting the train/bus through adds to it for me.

Once the SFA own Hampden there is no chance of Easter Road or anywhere else getting future Scotland games or semi finals. Massive amounts of money will now be spent refurbishing Hampden which could have been spent elsewhere in the game.
SFA at their best once again.

For me it’s the right decision, if SFA get to own Hampden, and are able to put some plans in place to “square” the stadium at some stage in the future. If we could bring in both ends, could be a really atmospheric stadium
SFA have got Gary O’Hagen working for them, was instrumental in the rebuilding of Easter Rd, and on budget

Hopefully the SFA buy Hampden then sell to the highest bidders and move. ****hole of a stadium and ****hole of a city

Its about time. Queen's Park IMO have not been good for Hampden and before anybody goes on about their right to own it, having the right to own it and having the capability to run it as it should be are two entirely different things.
If this gets over the line then it will be up to the SFA to prove they can do better, but surely they couldn't do any worse. Queen's Park missed an absolute open goal by failing to squeeze far more out of the Commonwealth games than they did ... they had the CG organisers by the balls and yet secured the square root of sod all for stadium redevelopment from an overall games budget of nearly 500 million quid ... if that's not failure I don't know what is.
The SFA need to get the finger out the second this deal is signed and that starts with shaming the Scottish and UK governments into backing redevelopment of the stadium and lets not go down the 'there's no money for stuff like that' route..... There was nearly half a billion quid found for the Commonwealth games and eye watering sums found for the Olympics, with even more public money added on top to make the London stadium fit for super rich West Ham ..... Others may have forgotten, but I haven't, that a few years ago 3 million quid of UK tax payer's money was given to the Chinese by the government ( the Chinese FFS ) to promote coaching and I quote "the English premier league" in that country.
In fact, we could do worse than ask the Chinese to fund redevelopment of Hampden, making it clear that we have reached out to them because our own government wont help ... who knows, the Chinese authorities might even come to the conclusion that the amount of embarrassment that would cause the UK government might be worth the cost
