Ireland’s Euro 2028 bid is “all fur coat and no knickers” while regional football stadiums fall apart around the country, according to Shane Coleman.The Government is confident the bid will be successful with Turkey currently the only rivals to host football’s second biggest tournament.It is expected Ireland would host seven games between the Aviva Stadium and Croke Park if the bid is successful.
“I say that because we have a big problem in this country in that in the league, the League of Ireland, most of the grounds are utterly unsuitable and, in some cases, dangerous. “The match was played at the Markets Field in Limerick and fans had to be evacuated from the stand because the floor of the stand gave way. It was incredibly dangerous and incredibly fortunate no one was injured.”“Here we are bidding for the second-biggest football tournament in the world,” he said.
