Why not? Makes perfect sense in the current climate and the UK has the stadia/infrastructure to carry it off...

Just a shame we wouldn't be able to use the MillStad thanks to Draconian Drakeford's short-sightedness and Vaughan Gethin's upwardly mobile career-defending trajectory :(

This will only go ahead if Hancock can find a special jab to give the England team before taking pens ;)

Hancock has already poured cold water over the idea...

But thankfully the MillStad is not the only stadium in Cardiff. There is no reason why CCS couldn't host games. :thumbup:

None of this makes any sense at all. Schools shut, Pubs shut, Gyms shut, hairdressers shut, people can’t go to work, people losing their businesses, locked in our homes, can’t travel, can’t visit family, all because they say it’s to dangerous for us.

But football is still allowed, TV personalities can all have their hair cut and now they say we can host the Euros with four thousand fans in the stadium. Goes to show it’s all bullshit it’s safe if it’s making big amounts of money and to make sure the only ones getting restricted are the ones at the bottom of the food chain.
Is this about a deadly so called pandemic or not ? It’s time people look at what is happening rationally and see it for what it is.
This photo says a lot about the BS of it all.

I'm now thinking this will run in the original format. Some games with limited fans, some behind closed doors. Some with travelling fans, some without. UEFA wont want to carry this forward to another year and will want to get it out of the way once and for all. Rates are falling generally and the vaccine has yet to take effect in most countries. Getting to and from Baku looks really difficult though.
