I'd be more concerned where Ireland are going to play their games before Northern Ireland myself John.

As for GAA, Croke Park and soccer. It would be better to leave your rivals use your pitch than run out of money and not complete the stadium.
Surely if they actually contacted each other they might sort something out because if they're leaving rugby in, they can leave soccer in.

I read in the paper the other day that the FAI had invited GAA chiefs to premium seats at Lansdowne since the Albania match,last year and they've been attending ever since.Seems like they're trying to butter them up cos they're the FAI's last hope

Well, if Bertie & co. make decision on new stadium before Feb then FAI can get reprieve on Lansdowne's temp seating

Govt., FAI & IRFU will build new stadium, ownership of which will be passed to new company, tho' IRFU will own de land. Each association, (as well as anyone else who may want to use stadium) will then seek to use stadium from this new company.
Essentially, renting it from new company.

Think that's right
