He'll need to make some quality signings rather then the shiit he unvailed today or people wont show up

Lims ? WTF!
Some great artist impression pics of what the Markets Field will look like on the Markets Field Facebook page. Really whets the appetite for March 7th. It looks great.exciting couple of months ahead....https://www.facebook.com/Marketsfiel...377093356053:0
If thats how it looks in March then its a way better start to what I was expecting tbh. Only concern now is will it be done March 7th nothing even started yet.
It will take a major workforce working in unseasonably good weather to get that done by March 7th. Or a miracle!
The weather that is expected is surely going to set it back.
The artist impression looks good to me and the wall not being the whole way around the pitch looks good. Seems like it will just be advertising hoarding rather than a stone wall all the way around closing in the pitch. At the very least the walls look like they will be small.

The most pleasing aspect has to be the away stand. What was imagined to be a disgraceful little yoke thrown behind the goal, in the artists impression looks to be a fine stand.
https://kesslereffect.bandcamp.com/album/kepler - New music. It's not that bad.
Ya it certainly looks far bigger than the plans showed. The artists impression has it just slightly smaller than the 18 yard box but the technical plans we saw a year ago had it about the width of the 6 yard box. It might have been one of the alterations made to the plans as I believe there was a few changes.
I know there was a delay cos of tender process and all that but could they not have went to tender far earlier or was there something stopping that? Just a shame that now it looks like it could actually be a decent ground as a start that it seems it will be tight to be done in time.. If its not ready for first game its a disaster.
Presumably the final plans got rid of the second little home stand and allowed them to double the size of the away stand. Sensible move, get one decent stand instead of 2 Jackman type stands. As long as they get moving straight away there should be time to get what is a modest amount of construction done.
Its good to see that those in charge are capable of changing their plans. There was a point where the MF really was going to be little better than Jackman, but if that impression is carried out, it'll be fine.

Surely today was day 1 in the Markets Field 9 week revamp?!
Passed it at about half 8 quarter to 9 this morning and it was all locked up anyway but would probably have started later than that if it did start.
Seeing is believing sometimes with Limerick FC.i remember listening to Father Joe saying on local radio one christmas in the 90's that the first blocks in the new clubhouse in Rathbane would be laid in January! I have a lot more faith in the LEDP though to get this job done.
is that a 2 tier stand behind the goal?
A 2nd tier? We'll be lucky to have players on the subs bench!
Hard to tell from the artist impression but the original plans just had it as one tier.
