Well I should say I was coupling the pictures of the meeting room with reading an article about new player facilities and a couple of pictures of the gym. Indoor astros, meeting room, dedicated gym and more. It all looks pretty good to me. https://twitter.com/DundalkFC/status...31138303250433
There are a few more photos in this article from 15 February

Champions' new high-performance training centre underlines club's determination not to rest on their laurels this season
And spunking it all on players worked out so much better didn't it. At least the facilities last a long enough time.Originally Posted by EatYerGreens
If you'd be happy with nothing but a branded armchair after a period of largesse at your club, then knock yourself out
These are weird posts EatYerGreens. Aside from anything else, it’s clearly more than a branded seat. As can be seen from the last few posts.
Also nobody’s suggesting it’s the only improvement needed. But it’s vastly superior to the average LOI training facility, far superior to anything Dundalk had previous and it’s owned by the club. If all clubs had the same, we’d be in a far better place.
I think you're focusing too much on the branding on the seats which costs about a tenner
See Cork had electronic advertising boards yesterday but apparently they're not permanent? Any Cork fans know more?
The e -ad boards def the first in the league, would be amazed to hear they would not be permanent. The first thought I had was on the revenue, seeing as clubs are getting zero for TV, why not advertise the bejesus out of it for live tv games and negotiate a better deal with those wanting to avail of it.
Also, no need to to do it at any other part of the ground, where the camera faces is fine, I'd be surprised if others woudn't follow suit, including P6 with Dundalk, it was an brilliant idea by Cork.
#DundalkFC - First Irish club to win an away game in Europe (1963), only Irish club to win a game / points in Europa League Group Stage (2016).
In fairness they looked fantastic last night.
Pity the football didn't match 🙄
According to the Cork commercial and marketing manager they're not permanent but they hope to have them for all TV games. Seems odd. Hardly something someone would have to rent out as a business.
Rovers had them for the game against spurs, so someone has them available to rent.
Always assumed we just borrowed them from Lansdowne Road
They were strapped to the fence with cable ties, so that certainly didn't look like a permanent solution. Were a bit higher than the fence as well, which probably wasn't great for kids in the first row of the Derrynane.
Rovers are planning to install what seem to be the same electronic advertising boards for the Bohs game, you've gotta give credit to the people behind the scenes at Cork for starting what seems to be a bit of a trend now. Hopefully in a few years it won't be a special thing and will be the norm, at least at the better grounds in the league.
Ouch!! They would look great in Oriel too, with our flashy 'new' scoreboard!!
......and branded seatsOuch!! They would look great in Oriel too, with our flashy 'new' scoreboard!!
Appearances count for a lot, and the electronic scoreboards look professional.
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
Heated branded seats!......and branded seats
If you put a Euro in the slot, do they give you a massage for 5mins as well ?
No they are being held back for the new away section thats being planned!
