Its good that its not Uniteds money anyway .... council really haven't ever done them any favours. You'd have to imagine that it will still be the same even after this money is invested.

Maybe United should throw their weight around a bit more, try to garner a better deal for themselves.

Personally ..... i wouldn't put any money into it. That running track is a nightmare, its an atmosphere killer !!

Yeah the RSC is terrible stadium. Is the trace even used for athletics as seems in poor state anyway.

Side opposite to the Stand is very narrow so little opportunity for development i'd have guessed.

Anyone know what they spending €700k on?
