Good times for Dundalk right now!
Good to hear :)
Is the seating the only aspect you have to address? And are these new seats just going to be layed down on the terracing ala Dalymount or are you building a new stand?
The seating is only one of a list of around 20 + items to have ready in time for the Uefa inspection in late may, control room, doping room, extra sized dugouts, extra set of goals, back up generator, reserved seating for 500 including press and vips, the list goes on and on.
Re the seating, this is going all along one side where the shed is and on both sides of the stand inculding infront of. Also seating will need to be upgraded in the stand to have all in same format, with backs. All will be permanent.
So not really much to tick off the list in about 7 weeks !
anything that helps league grounds to be upgraded is great. the more teams that get into europe the better. one thing that seems a bit much is the 500 vip/press/etc, especially for small venues. a lot of the other stuff should be there anyway IMO.
It kills me to say it, but delighted for Dundalk and hope that these improvements further increase their gates. C'mon de town!*
:D
*this good mood of mine may not last and I reserve the right to remove the above comments when I come down from last night's high of seeing us bang in 6 goals
All farms are funny to a townie like me! :D
Aw the Mons Dundalk love in ...who would have believed it...I hope we get you away in the cup...we always bring a great crowd down there for the big games
You do know Jinxy you can come sample the Mondogs any match nite, as long as you pay your €10 in we will not give you too hard a time for being from Dundalk! :D
We sampled them in the recent friendly and they where nice as usual. Some of us planning on a trip to a Monaghan game, maybe when Derry come to town!
Anyways back to topic, we still are not guaranteed to get the game in oriel after all the upgrading. There is a UEFA inspection in May/June time and that is when we will know.
Jinxy you are only saying that because you are a Monaghan blow-in:p But yeah the mon dogs are nice
Great news, really heartening to hear.
