And most surely, D4 is the centre of Dublin.
I’m reminded of that scene in The Commitments: “the irish are the blacks of europe, and dubliners are the blacks of ireland, and northsiders are the blacks of Dublin – so say it now and say it loud – I’m black and I’m proud!” 😎
Lansdowne is within spitting distance of the Cradle of Irish Football, Ringsend. Perfect location, historically.

I think that the new lansdowne road stadium looks fantastic……but…….It just doesnt seem to fit or look right where its going to be…….If it was thought out properly you would think that the national stadium of Ireland would be located in the centre of ireland
Yes, Athlone would have been the logical choice for the stadium. This is outrageous planning, etc.

Could anyone tell me who Oscar Traynor was? I gather that he was a minister.
He was among our nation’s founders, and a good foreign games man to boot. Read some books.
