RANGERRAB 3,258 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 (edited) The SFA offered QP £2m for Hampden(stop laughing at the back) QP want £6m. The SFA don’t have £6m.Not to mention annual maintenance costs. The SFA aren’t flush at the moment. So the choices now for the SFA if they move are hiring:- 1) murrayfield 2) San Giro 3) Ibrox 1) would be a massive step into the unknown. A 67k stadium which would only get filled for OF games and another stadium where fans too far from pitch 2) as I’ve said on here, structural issues with this stadium in the near future. 3) the ultimate nightmare scenario. Begging Rangers for use of Ibrox staring into the barrel of a gun springs to mind. Maybe a charm offensive with Rangers chairman might be a good start Edited August 29, 2018 by RANGERRAB 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEARGER 1,829 Posted August 29, 2018 Author Share Posted August 29, 2018 They are between a rock and a hard place, all of their own doing. They decided straight off that no other football ground would be used, it’s either Hampden or Murrayfield. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they left Hampden & went to Murrayfield & it didn’t work out they couldn’t go back to Hampden as QP would have sold it to developers by then as they’d need to repay £16m loans & grants. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re probably correct. They discarded the best outcome imo, i.e use other grounds. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
