Re: Euro 2020 to be staged in various cities across Europe
Just provided an example based on the seedings which rwo posted above.The Franchise wrote:How is that fair?
All teams in Spain's group have to beat Spain in Spain?
Like it isnt hard enough already lol
I picture one group playing in one country and something along those lines.Doesnt necessarily have to be Spain playing in Spain ,it could be Spain playing in Denmark for instance too and the remaining teams of the group playing in Denmark as well which is not too bad.

Re: Euro 2020 to be staged in various cities across Europe
Well, the stuff I posted was proposed a couple weeks ago when the first notions of a Distributed Euro (tm) was published. Hopefully some people already told Platini it wasn't so sensible to give the top seeds such an advantage. (And yeah, the idea was to play a group in one country, and that top seed in their own country idea was to placate the FAs of the major footballing powers, it seems. To me it sucks (foot)balls )

Re: Euro 2020 to be staged in various cities across Europe
The only way this idea would work is if they make clusters of cities close to each other for each of the 6 groups, so travelling for the fans and teams will be easy.
Group 1: London, Dublin, Cardiff, Glasgow
Group 2: Lisbon, Madrid, Barcelona, Monaco
Group 3: Stockholm, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Oslo
Group 4: Budapest, Vienna, Zagreb, Prague
Group 5: Paris, Dortmund, Amsterdam, Brussels
Group 6: Munich, Zurich, Milan, Rome

Re: Euro 2020 to be staged in various cities across Europe
I firstly think the idea is bad.
Secondly I don't think it's that much of a logistical problem, for the most part it'd still mean less travel than the World Cup did in South Africa or Brazil, or if it was held in Russia, China, the US of A or any other stupidly large country.
In geographic terms, Europe isn't that big.
The best argument against it, is the missed chance for countries to show off their tourist-friendly side, like how Germanys reputation dramatically increased after 2008.

Re: Euro 2020 to be staged in various cities across Europe
So because there is no host, no team will automatically qualify, correct? I really liked rooting for the host team if they weren't playing Germany.

Re: Euro 2020 to be staged in various cities across Europe
Guys its not that bad of an idea when you consider the humongous costs the hosts have to do. This way a game could be played in Wembley, another in the Bernabeu, another at Parc des Princes and really all those cities have first world transportation, hotels and stadiums.
Costs will be low and no one has to spend billions on stuff they will hardly use ever again, like Poland and Ukraine.
P.S. Remember Europe is a big financial crisis, now might not be the best time to spend billions on a huge party.

Euro 2020 to be hosted across Europe.
Uefa has confirmed its controversial plan to hold the 2020 European Championship in an array of cities across the continent, leaving the door open for a potential final at Wembley and group-stage matches in Scotland, Wales and the Republic of Ireland.

Why didn't Italy, France, Germany, Spain or England bid for it?

Congrats Platini. He's managed to ruin a competition that was basically perfect before he stepped in. What sort of brain-in-the-arse thinking is this anyway?

Re: Euro 2020 to be staged in various cities across Europe
I don't see the negatives here.
Less stupid expenditure, more countries to enjoy the euros, more easy access to fans and now it will really be a European thing.
Well done.

Re: Euro 2020 to be staged in various cities across Europe
The culture promotion of a country is just bullshit to be honest. No one cared about south African culture during world cup aside of hating the vuvuzelas.
I think you don't like it because of the human natural resistance to change.
No other reason really.
