wheres the fair green in Limerick and who plays there all ready?
Jackman it is, best choice available.
Fair green is where Fairview Rangers play their games. It's about a ten minute walk from the Markets Field.Quote:

Surely it wouldn't need an awful lot. Easy enough to segregate the crowd in Jackman and a scaffold is enough for TV camera. There's enough seats for all the demand there'll be you'd imagine. Around 50 for travelling fans and the rest for home. There's around 250 seats in that little stand isn't there?
I'd guess the only problem will be the lack of a second exit, but if the likes of Athlone can do it, then why can't Jackman.
Touch of gold from the club to facilitate travelling supporters by train though.
Fairview pitch is destroyed after fairview v carew park on Sunday ref should never of played it view asked him not to that it would absolutely destroy there pitch and would take 6 weeks to get it right again.Quote:

The best outcome that's for sure but can't see people flocking to the place either facilities just not upto scratch it will be the few hundred only some come down from thomond real shame
Well, they didn't really flock to Thomond either for long, in truth. Best that could be done I suppose the way things are turning out.Quote:

Good news that the games will be kept in limerick.jackman park isnt bad as a temporary home.its a lot better than thomond park atmosphere wise.thomond park was too big and had no atmosphere.jackman park could hold a couple of thousand easily,not that i would expect that.hopefully the team can put in a good effort against cork on sat and it will give them a boost ahead of next weeks game.
I've seen so many people say something along the lines of "Limerick won't attract many fans to Jackman after Thomond, facilities etc". Average attendance in Thomond was nearly the same as last season spent in Jackman. Results and qualoity of football will always be greater motivators. That's why the crowds will be lower.
Markets Field will be a lot closer to Jackman standard than to Thomond anyway so people may as well get used to it.Quote:

Cork have some squad put together Saturday will be very tough , where is the pitch in askeaton ???
I reckon if we had challenged for the league title the last two seasons we would easily have had an average of 2,000 in the gate. People want to follow success.Quote:

Delays a plenty down at The mf. Not enough workers on site....precast stand steps came in wrong size. Hopefully lights will be up this week. Dressing rooms are supposed to be a great job. Thursdays general meetings are supposed to be a calamity.
Jps error of giving the ground to his charity/quango haunting him every day
Concerning. I imagine we'll start hearing talk of further delays to opening soon so.
How do you make out its haunting JP.Ridiclous comment.And its actually Noirin who gave it not JP.Do your homework boss.Quote:
