Are the other three sides of the ground bare?
For the moment I'm pretty sure they will be, but there are plans to build another 2 stands at least.Quote:

At the moment yes but the stand on the other side of the pitch is being started next yearQuote:

They're high quality temporary, if that makes sense. The seats are of far better quality that the permenant ones. I think it's the exact same as the temporary stands for the League Cup final in 2005 against Derry. Might provide an unimpeded view on a nice summer's day.Quote:

I might better facilities as opposed to bigger facilities. Then again if you think you can fill the existing covered temporary seats & people will come to Belfield to sit in uncovered temporary seats...Quote:
