[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 677452, member: 40658"] Well in South Africa this is not really a problem. After the 2010 FIFA World Cup, 3 of the newly built stadiums have been regularly used for both Rugby and Football games. The Mbombela stadium is the home stadium of the Steval Pumas who plays in the Currie Cup, and is also home of the Mpumalanga Black Aces Football team. The EP Kings, who was part of last year's Super Rugby tournament used the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth as their home ground, and is using it this year in the Currie Cup too, while it's also used for Football games. And then of course there is the Soccer City Stadium that hosted the FIFA WC final, where SA and the All Blacks played 2 years ago. Then you have Loftus Versfeld and Ellis Park. Both rugby stadiums who hosted games in the 1995 RWC and home of the Bulls and Lions. They use those stadiums almost every week for both rugby and soccer. It shouldn't really be a big debate.
