there could be loads of stuff underneath…execpt if it digs so far so as to miss all of it, but enev so the tree huggers will be up in arms…protect everything!!!!
ooops sorry then. i’m not a cynic at all thankfully. i believe that it’s about time for such public transport even though i would have prefered to see a metro. hopefully galway is next!!!!!!!!! but it is
funny the comparsion. it’s reflects our ( as a country) waste of money on infrastructural projects though. it really shouldn’t cost that much.that’s true. there is a lot after killimor. there is a big infrastructural project about to start in tynagh which i hope will bring more people into the town at least while it’s being built and therefore help enhance the area. there is planning permission for about 150 house in the portumna area, within the town inself or just outside it.
i presume this is the same for nearly every small town within an hours drive from every major centre. this is what everyone i believe would like to see happen as it enhances small towns while cutting out major ribbon development. it will never stop it but a slow down is desirable.
this being as it is there needs to be investment in the services of small towns or people as u say will shop in loughrea or nearest big town. i can only talk about portumna cos it’s my home town but i think it’s a standard case really.i don’t know. i lived in portumna and commuted for a few months. house prices are cheaper out there and for anyone searching for a quiet life out of work. it’s not that far. i got into galway usually in about 40 mins ( quickest was 30) so not a bad journey seeing as it can take you that in dublin for a few miles. ( portumna is about 44 miles) . besides it’s not one off houses in port. generally.
i agree with the policies listed above. but theory and practice are two seperate things. i hope that the reforms do take place and in the quickest time possible.first of all i’m from galway and live in galway. i don’t care about ti to be honest because it doesn’t affect me. so i’m not a cynic , i infact think it’s a good idea so u are without a sense of humour. and i never said anything about a mission to mars i just mentioned spirit. but the price we are paying and yes i pay taxes too so i am paying for it, is absolutely stupid as i demonstrated.
1 bedroom apt for 210,000 in that yoke! the countries gone mad. not if they were giving them free would i live there. it reflects what apartment buildings looked like in britain in the 80’s.
i like this one. much better than the other post. not sure it’s high rise though. it’s only 16 storeys
well everything is p.c. over there so i can just presume it is while also instructions are in spanish as well.
i agree with brian as regards the gaa. and times when both stadiums will be in action is a rarity. and to suggest that we will only fill it when the jaffa’s come over or when brazil come is i think remedial. it may not be full for say against the faroe islands but even then it would be a large crowd ( just to see how many goals we score). nobody knows if it will be full because nobody can look into the future that’s why i suggested build 60,000 with the option for 20,000 more.
i liked that at the time also. however the premier league wouldn’t sanction it and i think neither would fifa. playing in another country. this seems to be an excuse that the pout however i believe cardiff city in the 1st division isn’t in england…please feel free to contradict me on this one… it’sthe same excuse they give for not including rangers and celtic into premiership.
the hought could also transfer to rugby in the shape of the 4 provinces. and i do believe too that the gov should listen to the 2 associations. however will they?
is there space for an 80,000 stadium at lansdowne? ifthere was that would be an inclination for me to start supporting that particular project. if they could build the 60,000 with the option to extend to 80,000 then that i think would be viable. they could see how much it’s used/ how much money it generates and then decide to add the extra 20,000 or even more( i wish).
1 question though. they say a decision is needed quick but if they do tear down lansdowne. where will we play our home games when this is going on? or will it be a stand at a time like croker. this will reduce the capacity by lots during construction.
right! what i mean is the football clubs organise so as to provide people with a focal point to go to before kick off. at this focal point then they may do whatever(different people have different ideas about fun). this wouldn’t cost the clubs at all as all they are providing is their fan base with a common place to meet. it works woith football clubs in italy. throughout the stadium different areas have a certain type of people. take juventus. in the stadia deli allpi there is the curva nord/ curva sud / the fighters and other fan clubs. this would increase the athmosphere in the stadium. this may also increase the chances that ordinary fans may stay around after the match in dublin to experience what happens afterwards with these clubs. it’s just a thought!
i diagree. what is needed is the organisation like in other countries and which has started with the different clubs providing the athmosphere.
while not many may have any experience in designing stadium of such size it doesn’t mean it can’t be done by a native. if it is easier and cheaper to get a foreign architect with lots of experience then i can’t argue with that. he may get an irish architect to sipervise or collabrate which would then give the necessary experience.
