Does that mean your capacity is limited to 1800, or will there be extra seats before July?

The intention is to have the new stand at the Inchicore end built prior to the UEFA games and have temp seating on the camac side. Should be about 3,500 seats if it comes off.

The new stand will be in place by then

REDEVELOPMENT OF RICHMOND PARK COMMENCES
The development of a new all-seater stand at the Inchicore end of the ground has commenced this week.

Top soil is being removed from the �hill�...

I think Pats are just raising some extra funds for the transfer window by selling the top soil.

Mons clubhouse has had womens toilets since it opened many moons ago. So Oriel, Dundalk are only first in the fake pitch department.

the "longford town" entry lists 6000 with no explanation, the "flancare park" lists 4500 with no detail except at the end of a blurb and your official site says nothing but how to get there and the stadium rules. my apologies for missing 1 sentence on one of ~30 websites/articles i had to go on to get those figures.

i've been to your cold arse-of-nowhere 'stadium' and i know there are seats, i didnt know how many, hence the question mark rather than a zero. if you had issue with something all you had to so was correct it rather strolling in on a white horse, high-and-mighty about your soon-to-be pride of the first division white elephant stadium.

Eh wouldn`t EVERY clubhouse or bar not have ladies and gents toliets.

I meant new ladies toilets built specifically for a terracing part of a ground. May not be first, but good news in this area all the same

Re your 'first' comment, if you want a nice 'first' try the first irish team to win an european match away from home, that was in the mid 196o's by the way.

We have 1052 standing officially (based on an official capacity of 1900 last year) - there was obviously a "0" left out of the figures.

Even Finn Park has ladies toilets for supporters for a long time now

**oriel** · 22/05/2007, 9:13 AM

pats fans - thought richmond looked great last night - thats a real improvement in the shed end, esp the terracing in the corner - seems a popular place for fans to go now

Whats that big white object in the corner ?

Also good to see the awful cliff demolised on the other end, whats going in there, a new stand ?

Ha ha. Athlone have a female ref dressing room. Bet Hilda loves it, sure as hell beats her having to trek through the bar in Oriel a few times before a game.

Our multi-storey toilets, DEFINITELY a first for the league. So everyone else can stop boasting about how advanced their club is for having lady jacks.

(The disabled toilets are on the top floor, BTW

)

New temp stand replacing the hill to be in place for UEFA all going well.

The non-Shed part of the Shed is a great place to watch the game, really surprised as I couldn't see it happening.

Any concrete plans to build a permanent stand there anytime soon?

**bohsmug** · 22/05/2007, 10:39 AM

What will the temporary stand look like (roughly). Will it be the same as the Bray one?

AFAIK Temp structures are not allowed under UEFA rules???????

**bohsmug** · 22/05/2007, 10:50 AM

That's what I thought.
Which is why building a temporary stand for the UEFA cup has got me awful confused. Maybe they allow 20 year structure type buildings or something? Do any Pats fans know a little more about this?
