The bidding process for UEFA Euro 2008 ended on 12 December 2002, when a joint bid from Austria and Switzerland was selected as the host.[1]

History

By June 2002, seven bids representing twelve countries were formally submitted:[2]

  • {{flagicon|AUT}} {{flagicon|SWI}} Austria–Switzerland (joint bid)

On 12 December 2002, UEFA's National Teams Committee made a recommendation based on technical evaluation of the six candidates and concluded that only four bids had the capability of organising the tournament, ranked as follows:[3]

  • 1. Austria–Switzerland
  • 2. Hungary
  • 3. Greece–Turkey
  • 4. Nordic countries (Denmark–Finland–Norway–Sweden)

Later that day, members of the UEFA Executive Committee voted on the bids, and chose Austria-Switzerland as the winning bid.

Scotland–Republic of Ireland

{{main|Scotland–Ireland Euro 2008 bid}}

In June 2000, the SFA refused to rule out a four-way bid consisting Scotland–Northern Ireland–Wales–Republic of Ireland.[7] In July 2000, David Taylor announced the bid would enhance if England failed to secure the 2006 FIFA World Cup.[8] On 6 July 2000, England was eliminated from the second round of voting for the host of the 2006 FIFA World Cup.

In February 2002, the Scottish Football Association (SFA), and the Football Association of Ireland (FAI), officially confirmed their joint bid to host the 2008 European Championship.[9] SFA's chief executive David Taylor said that the bid envisioned Scotland hosting the opening match, three group stages, three quarter finals, one semi final and the final match, with the Republic of Ireland hosting one group stage, one quarter final, and one semi final.[9]

The final bid saw changes to the initial plan with stadia in Scotland hosting both semi-finals, as well as the final. Murrayfield would be the final venue, with Hampden and Celtic Park each hosting a semi-final match.[10]

The eight venues would have been:[10]

  • {{flagicon|SCO}} Hampden Park, Glasgow (52,063)
  • {{flagicon|SCO}} Ibrox Stadium, Glasgow (51,082)
  • {{flagicon|SCO}} Celtic Park, Glasgow (60,832)
  • {{flagicon|SCO}} Murrayfield Stadium, Edinburgh (67,200)
Two of the following three:
  • {{flagicon|SCO}} Easter Road, Edinburgh (20,421, expanded to 34,880)
  • {{flagicon|SCO}} New Aberdeen Stadium, Aberdeen (31,400)
  • {{flagicon|SCO}} New Dundee Stadium, Dundee (31,400)
Two of the following three:
  • {{flagicon|IRL}} Croke Park, Dublin (82,300)
  • {{flagicon|IRL}} Lansdowne Road, Dublin (36,000, expanded to 51,700)
  • {{flagicon|IRL}} New Dublin Stadium (Stadium Ireland), Abbotstown, Castleknock (80,000)

Had the bid been successful, the new stadium in Aberdeen would have been used by Aberdeen, replacing their current Pittodrie Stadium, while the new stadium in Dundee would have been shared by Dundee, Dundee United and the Scottish Claymores American football team, replacing both Dens Park and Tannadice Park, following the competition.[10][11][12] It was envisioned that Stadium Ireland would become the home of the Irish national football and rugby union teams, as well as a national stadium for Gaelic games within Ireland.[13]
