    Hey guys, i would also like to know, i have been hoping someone would ansewr this question.

    the next question would be, what if they do play there, would people boo the team, or not even show up?? I would like native Barca fans to answer this

    I don't know if the full team has (probably during the Franco years), but the Olympic team in 92 (and what a team it was) won gold in a 101% packed Camp Nou with the King of Spain in attendance. It was THE greatest moment in NT soccer that we've had in over 40 years.

    Anyway, the reason that the NT doesn't play the Nou Camp is the same reason that they don't play the Bernabeu: they can't fill it up. Before you make any further considerations on nationalism and stuff, keep in mind that the NT can't fill a 75000 venue (let alone 100000) in ANY city of the world. If that changes (ie we win the world cup or we start playing brilliantly, both of which are unlikely) then we can see about it, but as it is the question is moot.
