Reply To: An Irish National Stadium!

Hi Fin, I know the GPO and Dail werent good examples, i didnt want to start a history lesson but you know the point im trying to make. Your rgiht though, those who were in the GPO and Dail when they were being bombed and shot at were obviously not civilians. Going back to the stadium, i dont think it would be ideal as the pitch is 150m long i think, im not to sure about the width of the pitch, but my point basicly is that there could be quite a distance between the pitch and the fans. Youd also wonder if it were opened up would ticket prices increase or decrease, at the moment they are crazy considering were paying to watch our national teams play in a glorified barn. Id say about a fifty thousand seatre stadium would be a good capacity, for any new one that may be built, also with the improving economy and finances hopefully this project will atlast take off, no one can deny that the situation is such a joke its not even funny.
