France - The Ground
The Rugby World Cup is in France the same time as
Scotland are due to play there (12th September). Saint Denis (aka Stade De
France) is one of the main stadiums for the rugby. It's hosting rugby
matches on the 9th and 14th of September, so they are unlikely to want to play a
football game in the middle. Lens is hosting rugby on the 8th and 22nd,
Lyon 11th and 15th, Marseilles on the 12th and Montpellier on the
12th, Nantes on the 9th and 22nd, St. Etienne on the 9th. Scotland were
well received in St Etienne during World Cup 98, so will hopefully be there.
