Hampden is well served with transport links, 2 raliway stations on separate lines within a 5-10 minute walk. 4 or 5 public buses on, upto every 15 mins service. I highly doubt Murrayfield is that well connected. It's only a nightmare if you are driving to the ground, where most folk try to park as close to the ground and have absolutely zero chance of parking - where they should be looking to drive a bit further around (plenty of unrestricted parking in Langside and Cathcart) and walk a bit more.

Murrayfield isn't capable of holding Old Firm games (segregation on entry to Stadium) so can't see plod allowing it to happen. Parhead isn’t capable for old firm segregation either, doesn’t stop them putting up steel barriers Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Smith 55 Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Personally I would like to see a redeveloped hampden, too many great memories. As somebody mentioned,do away with the track and lower the pitch,bring in both ends. I think it was ironic that during the commonwealth games it was described as a world class athletics venue.

DrLaudrup 4,684 Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Edinburgh is just annoying but I think they were short sighted in the past with Hampden. I've always though it was a dump, with bad views and just not a good venue for international football. I also don't think we are a big enough country to have multiple large international stadia that largely sit empty. It seems idiotic with Queens Park using it mainly empty, similar to Murrayfield only being full for 6 Nations etc - it would be better to have had Murrayfield being rented by Hearts/Hibs in a similar way to the San Siro is used by AC and Inter Milan then being full for rugby and football internationals and cup finals. It is the capital and the transport links are better to the stadium. Politics and stadium loyalties mean that wont happen though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopCat 4,511 Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Can't see us moving the national team to Murrayfield. Hampden has its faults but is steeped in tradition too.My problem with Hampden is the same as a few others have mentioned - it's too small and has poor visibility. They should do away with the track and put in more seats to take the crowd level up to 60 plus thousand. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedarvelmarvel 796 Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 my only doubt is the distance some seats are from the action.far superior set up than hampden. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

coisty78 15 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I'm not against Murrayfield being used but I would rather they kept Hampden, surely they can modify it by lowering the pitch! It would give better views and if they lowered it enough they could also add extra rows of seats at the front to increase capacity and bring the crowd closer to the pitch. They could extend the roof slightly to cover the front seats. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyhrfc 2,242 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Murrayfield is an inprovement on Hampden but not ideal and still too far from the pitch. If we had played yesterdays game with the same crowd split in a 33000 capacity ground the atmosphere would have been far better. Murrayfield would come into its own with 50000+ crowds.
