What's happening with Turner's Cross and Flancare to get the A Licence? Anything? UEFA are saying on their website that ye can't compete without it.

(we're ready and waiting, should ye pass your place over to us

)

i heard tonight in Athlone that we won't be hosting the game..with the whole licensing thing Cork might probably be in the same predicament as us.

AFAIK city can hold round 1 and then 2 if we make it past round 1

We'll get the A licence on all except the ground, so basically we'll nominate Tolka (UEFA approved apparently), Lansdowne, and Flancare and either play in one of the first two or try and get a limited capacity Flancare up to standard. Seemingly UEFA standards are actually more lenient than our own licensing standards. We may have an inspection closer to the date, depending on how work goes, it could have been done if the governmant hadn't been stalling, but anyhow..

on the very slight chance we'd make it to round three we'd still be able to use the cross once the standing attendance wasn'rt greater than 20% of the overall capacity, so the shed could be opened to about 1500 people i.e. same as normal.

Don't know if this has been mentioned or not but I read that the government decided that rather to give the e650,00 grants to the 4 EL clubs(to sprouse up their stadiums) that all EL teams playing in European Comps MUST now play their home euro games in Landsdown Road.
