is its definitely going ahead as is the relocation and upgrading of the floodlights which will include lighting on the stands and the old stand being refurbished.
People just have to be patient as it is a Terryland Development commitee project rather than just a Galway United one.
Who is on the TDC? What do they do, I know they 'Develop Terryland'Quote:

new stand is built?
Will the new stand have changing rooms and other rooms under it for a shop
and things? if so, the club house could easily be changed into a nice bar and
social room. Any views?
is made up of 3 galway United reps,3 Galway F.A. Reps and as far as I know independent reps.It is actually the development Co. for Terryland.The Seated Capacity will rise to 3200. The Floodlights will be relocated and there will be room under the stand for various uses which will be determined by the TDC.
The development under the stand will require further funding from the TDC,FAI & Dept. of Sport as will the future developments in the ground.
The Galway F.A. are to be praised for their work in making this dream for everyone in Galway Soccer a reality.
is the new stand going to be smaller than the old one? the old stand (i think) is between 1,700 and 1,800 seats, that would mean the new old would only have 1,500/1,600 seats? why so small, or is this because of the two phase construction?Quote:

Yea, fair play to them indeed! Terryland is slowly becoming one of the best compact stadiums in ireland.Quote:

I would agree with P Dunne, plan it properly and have it ready for '07.
Additional facilities should be included in the new stand and hopefully if the
monies due can be drawn down then this can happen.
BTW moving the lights to the four corners would be great.
but the two middle ones each side will be moved leaving a clear view from either side.
I like the pun PD! :rolleyes:Quote:

Why is there nothing about this on your official site? :confused:
Well its only in the early stages yet.It was publicised in local newspapers but there's nothing really for the website to mention.It should be up for August or September AFAIK.
on the website or when the stand will be finished?Quote:

You think having a stand up in 4 months is a joke?:confused:
Or is it that our website hasn't news on it?
Terryland Park is owned by the Galway FA not Galway UTD.
So this project is nothing to do with GUFC? Therefore warrants no mention on their official site?Quote:

There is nothing really to say about the stand at the moment that no one knows about. As far as the stand being ready for August or september! I will be happy if its ready for next season. For what I've been told there is still a good bit of paper work to sort out before construction can start.
Our offical website will only announce something when it comes as an official statement from the club and nothing else.
The construction of the stand is done by the "Development Committee". This a joint orginisation of GUFC, the Galway FA and some independent representives of the city of Galway.
FAO GUFCT/PD
I know we got the grant from the FAI but were we suppose to be getting something from UEFA and the Galway Corporation also? I know a certain member of the council was against giving anything to GUFC and tried to block it.
why would a councillor be against this........?!
GAA domination or something more sinister?
:confused:
AFAIK there are no issues with the Galway Corporation.
The plans for the stand are being finalised at the present time. I don't know
of a definite start date.
I dont think it would look great if there was a news item titled "Nothing happening this week, either" on the website :rolleyes:
arse again. I spoke to the person you are hinting at on friday night, and that is 100% not the case. who told you this info terry or is it just rumour? . In fact I was speaking to the man in the reception of their fine facilities and what had pride of place as you went in 2 big Galway United posters with the fixtures for the season. Can you name me 3 of the 56 junior clubs in Galway that will have the Gufc fixture posters up on their main enytrance in their clubhouse. Stop talking 3rd hand ****e.
There will be no shortage of support on that end for development at terryland
Have to agree with P Dunne, if there is nothing to report on
how can it feature on the website.
From what I hear plans are not finalised for the
new stand and work is ongoing with regard to this.
The ceremony in Terryland was for publicity and just a reminder to those
in high places that Terryland Park will be looking for additional funding.
