@@Dreyno Unfortunately that's the catch when you get free money. You change the name. Thomas is right whether we like it or not. Lansdowne Road is not the name of the stadium. It's the Aviva Stadium.

[@Dreyno]

@@boru1982 It’s a temporary name. I’m under no obligation to use it. Media can toe that line so the IRFU get their money.

[@boru1982]

@@Dreyno Unfortunately it doesn't matter what your obligation is. You can call it the Breadpan Stadium if you like - it doesn't change the name of the stadium. As we now know 'Lansdowne Road' was a temporary name as well. If the Irish people knew who 'Lansdowne Road' was named after, I'd willing to bet a lot would never call it by that name again. This is what happens when the association 'sells out' for lack of a better term. That is how the FAI and IRFU are run - the Irish people have absolutely no say in it. Almost the opposite to the GAA.

[@johncahalane7327]

The problem with both stadiums capacity increasing are for Croke Park it's smack bang in the middle of a residential area, The Aviva is in an even worse situation the design is deliberate, the issue is light in the most expensive real estate in Ireland, that is a non starter, the original plan was to build an 80,000 seater National Stadium on a green field site outside the M50 the infamous Bertie Bowl that never happened.

[@anderslarsen6009]

With some money invested in the stadiums I could easily see Ireland hosting the euro´s, The requirements are as now 3 stadiums with 50.000 seats (and if possible one with 60.000 seats for the final), then 3 stadiums with 40.000 seats and finally 4 stadiums with 30.000 seats. However both France in 2016 and Germanuy in 2024 used or will use 10 stadiums,, Euro 2020 was hopefully a one off. Some stadiums would probably have to be temporarely expanded because they would be to big after the tournament.

[@gavincurtis9758]

I never thought about it but with those requirements, a little renovation to two or three stadiums and it would acc be possible. Ireland did bid to host the Rugby World Cup in 2023 but lost out to France, but rugby is different because stadiums don't need to be flashy except for the really big ones, but I have a feeling that if Ireland did bid to host the euros it would they wouldn't get it. Also the thing is with the stadium situation is that most of the big stadiums in Ireland are GAA stadiums. And under GAA rules foreign sports aren't technically allowed to be played in GAA grounds. They agreed to make an exception for the rugby bid but it was extremely divisive

[@galoglaich3281]

Anders Larsen Not some ,but in enormous investment ,for a start an extra 50 000 seater would have to be built and probably 3 40 000 seater stadiums aswell.We have only 3 stadiums with a capacity of over 40 000 to 50 000 when temporary seating is added they will go down to 30 000 as they are at present majority standing which would fullfil one requirement but bringing them below 40 000.Building 5 extra stadiums for a small country like ireland just for a two week tournament is not an option yes it would bring huge revenue aswell to the country but that would be offset by the huge cost of building brand new stadiums or even as you said expanding which would virtually mean demolishing and rebuilding anyway.They are other issues aswell as gavin has outlined below however i would add that the GAA and FAI relationship would be quite a bit worse than with the IRFU (rugby)

[@cnoc500]

Do they have the infrastructure to support it tho? Hotels, transport, etc.,
