Wonder why they’ve gone to Murrayfield rather than Hampden, would be better keeping football money with football

Never having followed the story of Murrayfields bid to become the national football stadium, it seems to me that the SRU are desperate to host football... any football. Why?

Are they totally skint or are they just wanting to give the Glasgow FA the finger?

I believe the Anfield pitch is getting re-layed

Doesn’t explain why Murrayfield over Hampden .

Murrayfield holds about 15k more than Hampden

I was in Ireland when Celtic played Barcelona at The Aviva in the International Champions Cup, and I was attracted enough to travel to Dublin primarily to see the fabled Barcelona side. Would have preferred if it wasn't Celtic in opposition, but was an enjoyable occasion none the less. Getting the opportunity to watch live clubs you wouldn't normally get the chance to see on your doorstep makes these games quite attractive events, and if we have one in Edinburgh then can only see positives myself.

Cant get the negativity over this. 2nd in the EPL v 2nd in the Serie A in our fine City.

As a football fan I will be attending.

Liverpool were on their creditors list.

A select few get to that level of special.

So potentially, it might not be Liverpool v Napoli but Liverpool v Stenhousemuir, or Liverpool v the Scottish Ambulance Service Sunday League team, or Liverpool v the boys who work at Western Saab and play fives every Thursday evening, or Liverpool v Scott Wilson?

That's one way to look at it. The other way is to look at it as the EPL promoting their product in our fine city … one of the kids who has gone to ER with us for years is already losing interest in Hibs in favour of Liverpool and that's without them having promotional events right under his nose.

I remember years ago Newcastle advertising their games in the EEN and that pissed me off too. Its one thing the EPL seducing fanboys in Thailand or the USA or Outer *****lia … its quite another in my opinion doing it in a city which is a relatively short car or train journey from Newcastle or even Liverpool, so no matter how unlikely it is to do so I don't want them drawing future supporters away from Scottish football and especially Hibs by playing glamour friendlies in our back yard.

So as a football fan who would genuinely watch absolutely anybody play anybody with very little prompting I would rather watch Hearts play Hamilton than go to this … in fact there's more chance of that happening.

Edit …. The swear filter …. really

It's Napoli. Can't use anfield cause of a concert. It'll probably be at Spurs new ground... 👍

Fair enough mate. Each to their own. That thought hadn't even crossed my mind to be honest.

I see it as it an opportunity to see the recently crowned European Champions, without the EPL ticket costs, travel, hotels, etc. Can walk to Murrayfield too.

Would rather stay in than watch Hearts v Hamilton

Spurs new ground has already been ruled out, that was the original plan.

You must have some interesting views on the Newcastle friendly!! Are they just coming up to try and seduce some of our fans over the border???
I'm sure people can support more than one team.

I suspect the latter...

Unless its against an Edinburgh club they can take their friendly and stick it straight up their arse.

Its bad enough our kids, and too many adults, being seduced by the bloody EPL without them playing matches ( even friendly ones ) on our doorstep. Let them stick to money making tours of China and Asia to pander to their EPL fanboy tourists over there and leave us bloody well alone !!!

No offence to Scouse Hibby BTW ….. It wouldn't matter which EPL team it was.

I agree. Maybe we should play Parma at Goodison. Seems odd.

It's not that odd. Liverpool are one of the biggest supported clubs in the world and will likely have Murrayfield full or close to it.

Hibs and Hearts are operating on a completely different planet to teams like Liverpool, it's just the way it is.

Significantly better stadium, nearer the city centre, higher attendance potential, better transport links apart from that, what have the romans ever done for us.

you might miss some bargains on offer in the pubs around that area then

It won't be a bargain when your pockets are dipped.

You can support as many teams as you want.

But there is a great Italian saying.

You can have as many wives as you want but you will only have ONE football team.

Don't understand all the negativity, it sounds like a good idea to me. A good stadium with good transport links to the city centre and 2 quality teams playing. Unless the pricing is stupid I'll be looking to go along to this one I think.

Anti Liverpool jealousy mostly.

Yes think will head along unless shocking pricing.

It'll be £40-£50 I reckon. Full of roasters who have never been to a fitba game in their puff walking along dressed like a full kit ******. After the game talking about how good Liverpool and the EPL is and how ***** Scottish fitba is without even a slight hint of irony. With no Fergie at the helm and Utd utter pish a chance for Liverpool to expand their fanbase up here with the next generation of youth.

The Barca game at Murrayfield was bad enough and that featured Hibs - think i lasted 35 minutes before heading. Not for me this - fill your boots though.

Couldn’t agree more

[Since452]

A friendly against Liverpool at Murrayfield doesn't float my boat. In my eyes they're less appealing than Barca were and even then i wasn't too interested. Certainly wouldn't pay 30+ quid to see it. Genuinely more interested in getting off to a good start in the league cup.

No need to sit on the fence.

I can't see it being much like what you describe there in general. Thanks for your permission to go though.

Would be good to go see the 6 time European cup winners play in Edinburgh.

I didn't realize Hearts had won it that many times?
