Seemingly Hampden OF and Murrayfield are only Cat 4 stadiums in Scotland.

According to who?

any ground that can host a group game in a euro league/cup or international is a cat 4.

or thats what i was told a while back from an unreliable source ;))

Isn't there a lot of cases where special dispensation is given though. I'm sure Anfield or a similarly big EPL team has a stadium that doesn't meet some of the criteria for European games.

I think you're under a misapprehension there, gbh.

As you say, Hearts pitch is only 100m by 64m but its also the biggest 100m by 64m pitch in world football.

Atmospheric as well, I'm sure I heard somewhere it's the most atmospheric pitch in the world of it's size.

sure its burnleys pitch that was the only one in england that never met the dimensions. there are other criteria heres a wiki page about it,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFA_stadium_categories

eufa give permission for qualifiers, but not the league/important games, i could be wrong tho, thats just the way i understand it. thats why the sc um used to move over to murryfield until they extended the pitch to meet the minimum dimensions.

Also has pittodrie as cat 4, which is staggering.

Pittodrie is definitely the worst stadium in the premiership for away fans
