Worcester City Researcher Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Does anyone know the minimum requirements for a stadium to host home games in the Europa League? I've started a custom game with a home town club - but my early round Europa League games have been moved to Marston Road in Stafford. So - how can I correct this so I do play at home?

podunkboy Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Quickest way is to qualify for Champions - most boards won't expand facilities for Europa League, but a couple good runs in the Champions League will loosen their wallets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPKC Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I think it's 8000 all-seater Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrizzitD Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Only one I know for sure is only seated places count, so if your stadium is all standing thats an explanation. I dont know if there is a minimum number of seated places though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dafuge Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Unless stipulated otherwise in these regulations, matches in the competition must be played in a stadium which meets the structural criteria of the following categories as defined in the UEFA Stadium Infrastructure Regulations (2010 edition): a) category 2 for the first and second qualifying rounds; b) category 3 for the third qualifying round and play-offs; c) category 4 from the group stage to the semi-finals; The final must be played in a stadium which meets the structural criteria as defined in the staging agreement. http://www.fai.ie/PDF/UEFAStadiumInfrastructureRegulations2010.PDF Cat 2 - 1500 seats Cat 3 - 4500 seats Cat 4 - 8000 seats I'm assuming the game uses this.

Nobby_McDonald Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 What club are you at if your games have moved to Stafford? Marston Road is hardly suitable for European football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
