RE: Euro 2016
Are you trying to tell me that having an extra 30-40,000 people paying extortionate rates for accommodation and drink for 2-3 days At a time does nothing to stimulate the local economy?

You forgot to mention that the decision to expand the format significantly enhances the COSTS of the host nation.

Exactly. To the point where it's now difficult to find any country willing to host the event.

But they make up for it in revenue. My point was that the decision to extend the format from 16 teams to 24 was a less than altruistic one. You are allowed to read between the lines without going through every word of someone's post with a tooth comb You know.

When the competition first went to 16 finalists there were 34 members of UEFA. Today there are 55 and Platini promised that more would get a chance to qualify.

As for the host nation finding it more lucrative, that is a debatable point of view at best. More groups means more stadiums and France had to build 4 new ones as well as renovate 5 more, costing a total of almost 2 billion Euros. There's no certainty that more teams means more profit.

Correct on both points.

It's worth adding that the expanded format reduces the risk of one of the bigger countries failing to qualify for the finals, which was a consideration put forward by UEFA when the matter was being put to the vote.

Security costs are now horrendous for any international event and France has spent an enormous amount at this tournament (although UEFA is paying some of the security costs).

If no host nation in 2020, then they should revert back to the knockout phase of the old style competitions and just choose a host city for the final.
Mind you if Platini extended it just because he felt it was a vote winner for him for the FIFA it certainly didn't help him it backfired spectacularly for him didn't it?

Maybe UEFA needs to enlist the help of the EU, they are not short of a few quid surely?
Maybe an EU grant could help with some of the costs.
