Dont think there has been a single flare lit at Thomond Park this season. May have been one by Dundalk fans but i cant remember 100%.
I heard to-day that the Markets field HAS to be ready for next season as thomond park are not giving Limerick the lease next season, something to do with flares been lit.

If it causes a push on for the markets field then happy days.
I'm sure the cost of the lease, the security they are tied into and the lack of food and drink sales mean the sooner we are in the markets field the better.
In saying that has there been a flare lit at a home game? I'm pretty sure there hasn't so that parts not true.
By home fans 100% no.
A load of ****e. its limerick that want out. if flares is whats making the MF getting built then im getting tons of um
Loads of work not just the pitch being done about an hour ago when i was down there.
There are a few pictures on the LEDP website.
It warms the heart to see those pictures. Fantastic to finally see physical work happening in the markets field. A permanent home is more important than any on field success as it safeguards the future of our club. It would be great if someone could provide weekly picture updates of the progress
Is there not even a planning application lodged yet?
Earthworks like moving some soil around is one thing, and without trying to burst your bubble lads, it could be a wait before 'real' works begins if there is not even planning in place ...
Manager: Fergal, have you your boots with ya?
Fergal: Ya, I have them here.
Manager: Ah good stuff, well give them to this man so, he forgot his!
Supposed to have been lodged ages ago. Never heard anything official though.
LEDP said it hasnt been lodged. No way ye will be in for next season (only 6 months) unfortunately

We'd be pushing it alright so would be shocked to be in there for next season.
There certainly was some form of planning paper work lodged, sure weren't the local morons in the city council going on about it at one point?

Where do the LEDP tell you that a planning application hasn't been lodged?? No planning permission required for laying a pitch on top of an existing pitch. No planning permission required for internal workings such as drainage of said pitch, cleaning up works or seating the stand. No planning permission required for putting in dressing rooms where existing dressing rooms are. Seed planting months are September and March. If seed does not take then a pitch (grass pitch) can be rolled out within a month of seasons start. I believe there is a company in co limerick who grow pitches and have been shipped to many stadiums around the world. After pitch is seeded (before end of sept) we will see if the LEDP are doing anything to the other parts of the ground

There is no planning application lodged yet as LEDP still don't know who will also use the ground, the plan is to make MF self sustainable ie not loose money.
Could LFC help financially with renovating the stand and temporary portacabin style changing rooms, surely this is enough to get a licence, would probably work out cheaper than renting Thomond Pk anyway.
Mentioned a couple of times here http://www.ledp.ie/news/654/ plus its very easy to do a Planning search to see if planning has been lodged (as they need to be visible to the public for observations)
will be done in conjunction with a planning application being made towards the development of the ground ...
LEDP will be lodging a planning application to encompass the overall development of the ground ...
Rennovations and new pitch seem to be the first 'phase' and probably should get ye a Premier Licence, hopefully anyway, cause TP is sh*te for LOI football.

If say the changing rooms already there could be brought up to scratch surely. Then the seats in the stand and the pitch. Would be enough to get a license I would think.
Hopefully it can be done but could the pitch be ready, I believe it could take between 6 and 12 months to seed and that's ledp intentions as from what I heard but that could change easily enough I suppose
