Lads @ScottishFA, can you not just do what every developer does in Glasgow and pay someone to set it on fire, claim the insurance and build a new stadium?
Hampden will be upgraded for Euro 2028 but no major rebuild. Removing track/moving stands would cost £100m+. SFA's Ian Maxwell: "There will be changes. We need to be realistic about what those are. There will be tweaks & upgrades rather than anything substantial."

If he is handed a four-year contract, I’ll eat my hat.
🚨 EXCLUSIVE BREAKING NEWS 🚨
Philippe Clement is expected to arrive in Glasgow tonight to discuss terms on a 4 year deal to become the next Rangers manager

It may be minor but it’s just another reflection on Sky’s Scottish football coverage being half arsed, but 5 minutes after a red card they still haven’t updated the score graphic with the red.
Strong message from Rangers fans to their players as they take on unbeaten St Mirren this afternoon:
Heartless, Passionless, Leaderless:
Not fit to wear our colours
For the fourth time in a row, the Edinburgh Derby will not be televised in the UK or Ireland: one of Scottish football's great occasions with 20,000 fans full of noise, colour, and passion
No wonder your kids ask for Man City and Arsenal tops, they never see Scottish football
💷 Rangers paid £4.5M to land Cyriel Dessers from Cremonese, where he scored a total of 7 goals
This currently equals £1.5M a goal across four competitions
He is averaging a goal every 302 minutes, around twice as long as Alfredo Morelos took to score during his Gers career
Aberdeen do the heavy lifting for the Scottish coefficient, they’re the only Scottish side to contribute to the tally on match day 2.
Their draw earns them €166,000 in additional prize money.
There’s no sugarcoating this result, it’s a very poor result for Rangers.
Aris Limassol have the revenues similar to clubs such as Hearts, Hibs, Aberdeen after starting from a base more akin with Queen’s Park three years ago.
ARIS LIMASSOL vs. RANGERS
Rangers travel to Cyrpus in the Europa League to face national champions Aris Limassol on Thursday.
The Cypriot side are a real 'rags to riches via dubious foreign finances' story, a modern football marvel.
In 2020, they had revenues of just £343k but finished runner-up in the second division and earned promotion to the top-flight Cyta Championship.
Then enters Russian businessman Vladimir Fedorov (named in the Bahama Leaks offshore investigation). One year later, the revenues of the sleepy capital club grew by x13, and they finished 4th in the top flight. Who'da thought it?
Revenue growth would continue hitting £10.4M (placing them in the sort of ball park of a Aberdeen, Hearts, or Hibs) as the club claimed their first ever top flight championship after 89 years of mediocrity. Поздравляю, Владимир!
Rangers remain red hot financial favourites to pick-up all three points on the road, but as evidenced at the weekend, sometimes the underdog can win.
.@RangersFC fans, if you’re wondering why Aris’s stadium is empty,
it’s because they are essentially Queens Park pumped up with Russian roubles 👇🏻
