Millenium Stadium.

Am I right it's owned by the WRU?

It has been muted as Tans Destination of choice before and has cropped up again by the re-emergence of NUKES(Welcome back Steve).And with so many fans unhappy with the soulless CCS would they be happy if all was back to normal (Badge/Colour etc) and we were a top ten prem team playing our home games at the National Stadium?

It's all hypothetical folks so no need to turn it into a red and blue slagging match..

Just another rumour/made up story - forget it -won't happen ( and the pitch certainly isn't good enough for our silky skills! :ayatollah: )

Would be a good move. Slam the ticket prices right down to £5 per game and people will show up. Fans rarely show up to Wales games because we play teams like San Marino and bloody Austria most of the time and teams like Italy at the Millennium Stadium once per qualification campaign.

If we were at the Millennium Stadium and they dropped ticket prices it would set a good example for the FSF and turn some of the bullshit this club has had slung at it in the media into something good for once. Fans are crying out for cheaper tickets and our club could set the precedent.

More people would go if ticket prices were cheap. People try to use Wales games to say thats not the case but thats bullshit. People will take Cardiff vs Premier League opposition before a Wales game every day of the week. Its obvious, a Cardiff team that is on the up and has an owner who has promised £25m or a Wales international game involving a team notorious for failure?

This ^ is one of the reasons why a move to the Millenium should be taken seriously. Without doubt the big clubs would attract massive crowds. I've been in crowds of 50,000 at NP when a big name has come calling. So history shows a big crowd can happen even for Cardiff whatever we are called.

For the lesser attractions then reducing the prices will overcome that. I'm not saying we would get 50,000 for say Wigan if we dropped the price to £5 but I certainly think it would turn out as Wigans biggest crowd outside their top 4 away days. This season Middlesborough got 28,000 for their live Sky game against Sheff Wed because they brought the price of a ticket down to £12.

This move to the Millenium could be feasible in the interest of business.
