[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 899666, member: 45598"] If there was another stadium fitting the requirements in Ireland that wouldn't draw huge rent from the GAA then yes, otherwise no. I imagine the only reason Racing moved to Bordeaux is because the Parcel Des Princes and Stade de France are too big for their diminutive fan base to fill while the U Arena is their home ground. You can easily expect 15,000+ Munster fans to go but getting more than 10k - 15k Racing fans is a huge ask and the tournament has drawn criticism for half empty stadia in it's final rounds in previous years.
