I don't think they've owned it for some time.

I've just Googled it and the Scottish FA bought it off them in 2019, I thought it was a lot longer than that and around the time it was modernised.

Championship side Queen's Park have agreed a deal with the Scottish FA to return to playing at Hampden Park.

They will play their Championship fixtures at the National Stadium during the 2023/24 campaign, but the move will not happen until after September 12 due to a concert and international matches.


As part of the arrangement, the Scotland national teams will use Lesser Hampden as a state-of-the-art training facility in addition to Oriam, Scotland's National Performance Centre in Edinburgh.

My Dad used to go to a lot of the big games at Hampden with my Grandad remember them telling me at the Real Madrid vrs Eintracht Frankfurt final in 1960 if you got your hand up above your head they were that tightly packed you could not get it back down your side again but apparently there was only a 127,000 at that game
