Are Bohs still holding out for Carroll though, yeah? I imagine going with this jerk (Conroy) is probably the best thing at this stageQuote:

Looks very good business as well, the money he's offering would finance the club on its own for five years by my reckoning.Quote:

Is it also true that you have struck a lucrative sponsership deal with NAMA.:DQuote:

Is it not Harristown ?
That was where the Liam Carroll stadium was going to be built.Quote:

Can we keep this on ground developments? There's plenty of "Bohs' directors are stupid" threads.
sorry i got lost there...
ahem, im negative about all stadium builds. its never going to happen. but if it does happen ill pick faults in it and post them here. must be an irish thing.
I presume the builder/developer is still in business. Thats the main point as far as Harps as concerned.Quote:

Would be a massive boost imo, grounds a kip atm.

Limerick make formal offer for Markets Field
Limerick FC has announced that the club has lodged a formal offer for the city’s spiritual soccer home at the Markets Field.
Market’s Field is currently in the ownership of the Irish Greyhound Board, but the city’s greyhound focus will move to a purpose-built €18m facility in 2010.
And Limerick FC hope to complete a return to Markets Field in 2010 after quarter of a century away from the venue.
Speaking at a mayoral reception in Limerick City Hall last Friday, Limerick FC club chairman Pat O’Sullivan stressed that the stadium would be for the people of Limerick, open to all sports and codes, to all community groups and for the benefit of all Limerick people.
He added that the club would be unable to see the Market’s Field project to completion alone and he appealed to other bodies to help make it a reality.
O’Sullivan said: “I don’t want any of this for myself, that’s not what I’m about. I won’t be around forever and I want to help Limerick FC to a place where all the people, especially the young people from the so-called disadvantaged areas, can realise their potential through sport and education.”
Limerick FC is also taking over the running of the impressive Sean Choill training complex in Corbally, with O’Sullivan offering use of the facility to local clubs who may not have a place to train.
In further moves designed to strengthen the club’s links with the football community in the city, Limerick FC has made an open offer to the Limerick Schoolboy Council to avail of the facilities at Corbally, while the club has also sponsored playing kits and equipment for local clubs Star Rovers, Carew Park, Moyross United, Hyde Rangers and Hill Celtic.

This is a really good move. I think it should be a major part of all clubs' development strategies to develop strong links with the local football community. Far better to spend money on making young footballers like your club than a scattergun approach of ads in prominent places (although they have their place as well)Quote:

Any word on the Carlisle developments, my fellow Bray custodians?
im going to send a picture of my rented home around at Christmas next year too...
I smell a hint of jealousy in the air.
It's just like sending a photo of your council flat as a Christmas card :)
Smells like…...Victory.Quote:

I wish we had a rented ground like that!
There are plenty of threads about Tallaght from who owns it to the colour of the seats so can we keep this one on topic.
Whats happening with the Showgrounds? When are they likely to apply for planning for the new stand? What other works have been happening there? I hope they have finally managed to put some concrete down behind the new stand. Long overdue.
Have they started work again on the New Finn Park? Every time there is any sort of press release from the club they always say that they will have news about the work on the stadium but have not heard anything. Could we get an up-date?
How is the development at Oriel coming on?
Whats the latest with the Carlisle Grounds? Last I heard they were looking to get an anchor tenant in there. Hope that development comes off, looks achievable for the club.
Have Derry City Council set a date for the upgrade works on the Brandywell and what exactly are they going to do there?
Anything else inthe pipeline with other clubs?
New stand going into the showgrounds i think, jinks avenue.
New finn park is being constructed as we speak
The carlisle redevelopment is only in the early stages of planning, should b happening though.
This is almost built, well from the outside, its bigger than the main stand in terms of height and lenght, runs almost 3/4 side of the pitch, think it will be fitted out with indoor pitches, futsal, bars and a gym. Must see if i can get an updated photo somewhere. Nothing else done to the ground, away section still a disgrace. They should actually close this permanently and do a deal for eur 15 for all games for the stand/front terrace of stand for away fans.Quote:

For what it's worth
Planning permission for new stand at United Park
We can now officially describe the stand in United Park as "dilapidated"Quote:
