I remember this being discussed on here recently but can't find the thread in question though. Bit strange alright.Quote:

Because Cobh is on our crest, and the pitch being bad is no excuse
Here it is. I started this thread after I heard our Under 17 team were playin in Pfizers and our Youth team in Ballinhassig. The A Team playing in Blarney wasn't even on the horizon when the thread was started.Quote:

If any of us win the €13 million lotto Saturday then make your first purchase a piece of land in Cobh that you can turn into a traning complex and offer it to Ramblers free of charge then charge anyone else who wants to use it.
how much would it actually cost to build one along with buying the site?Quote:

You sound interested, have you got a spare couple of million lying around? :eek:Quote:

A couple of lads down at Springers said they are looking to sell up and move out to Ballymore with 3 or 4 pitches out there. Maybe we could buy into the deal and use it for training and reserves? Would solve things for us and help them get set up.
was discussed at agm, said it was being looked at as an option
biggest disaster is guy who owns field where cobh town used to play is willing to let rams use land but if he lets rams use it in the eyes of the law he could never sell it for houses as zoning would change
bad form alright. disapointing the way we cant watch them ,and **** that am i travelling to blarney hungover on a sunday, across the word was hard enough.

I presume he has been approached with a view to selling it to Rams permanently.Quote:

then again i did fail planning at xmas
so wat ur saying is u dont have a clue:D:DQuote:

lads they cant sell the houses that are already built why would they build more, anyone read the article in the inside cobh where barry said we were doin a deal with the VEC to convert there pitch to all weather, for use as a traing pitch,
if the old cobh celtic field was leased to rams then the farmer in the future if he wanted to develop it for building, would have to provide an alternative green field ammenity site within a certain radius of the the field itself....Quote:
