Here is a nice article from Uefa.com about Charmilles, Servette's old stadium. It talks about the new one.

Anyone know how the new stadiums in Switzerland are doing?

Problems in Bern

It seems that the renovations of Wankdorf Stadium have hit a snag. There are supposed to be 8000 more places added to the stadium to accomidate Euro 2008. Problem is these will cost about 14 million CHF, and no one knows who will pay for it. The capacity will be at 40000, when and if the seats are added.
