    seriously pal are you getting Grok to make these lists for you or something?

    Killester Donnycarney v Bohs is at Dalymount. (And it's €15 in, not €10. )

    Bangor Celtic v Cobh is at Pearse Park, not the Iveagh Grounds.

    &


    2025 FAI Cup 2nd Non-League Clubs Home Venues.

    Fairview Rangers (Limerick) The Fairgreen capacity 1,500
    Salthill Devon (Galway) Drom Soccer Park capacity 2,000
    Bangor Celtic (Dublin) Pearse Park capacity 500
    Castlebar Celtic (Mayo) Celtic Park capacity 1,500


    There are some lovely grounds for League fans to visit in the 2nd round FAI Cup fixtures over the weekend. I reckon The Fairgreen in Limerick is one of the best, but all the home clubs have fine facilities available to all the visiting fans.

    That's what's great about the FAI Cup!

    No worries pal

    Where did you get 2000 for Drom? I seriously doubt you'd squeeze 2000 people around the pitches up there! A fine training facility but it's not designed to host a large crowd of people.

    Yeah, I wouldn't trust that. Especially with no citation. You'd probably have capacity for 2000 people across the 4 pitches but no way you're getting 2000 people around the main pitch, especially as the 4 pitches are quite close to each other.

    I've been to most of those grounds. They do not "offer all the required facilities and more". Fairview is the only one with facilities for supporters. You're talking absolute nonsense and trying to pass it off as facts as usual.

    Based on your knowledge of the ground what would you estimate the maximum amount of fans that could watch a game safely at the Drom Soccer Park?

    I suppose most visiting fans at these venues will just like a good view of the game, toilet facilities and food & drink options. I think all these clubs have a bar & clubhouse and will probably put a lot of work into providing the necessary facilities. I think you are getting all worked up as usual and have very negative comments and opinions. Hope you are not travelling to one of these fixtures as you might be surprised at what is available and possible on the day.

    A couple of hundred at most. It's not something Salthill have ever had to worry about mind!

    As a Junior soccer centre, that seems excellent.

    But never mind how many people you could fit in physically, when it comes to staging Intermediate, never mind Senior, events, imo it doesn't come close to meeting the minimum (stands, cover, facilities, turnstiles, parking, accessibility etc)

    It's a fine facility but is primarily a training one. Not sure what Salthill's plan is for the third tier as it's probably not really suitable for hosting senior football on a regular basis.

    Agreed, I used to love playing there as a teenager and Galway United used the same facilities.

    Great photo EG but it's a bit old now. They've added floodlights and fencing to pitch 3 and rotated the Astro pitch 90 degrees at a cost of x4 of the eight 5-a-side cages. Still no spectator stand AFAIK but you'd imagine they lost a bit of income removing those cages so the 3rd tier might be their ambition...

    Have a look on Google Maps (satellite view) at these coordinates: 53.293608,-9.133287

    I'm buzzing to visit Castlebar on Sunday, mainly because they have a bar. Hopefully it stays dry and there's a good view of the pitch.
