Bowl

Pats have started a campaign to stay at Richmond- maybe we could back each other? Is there any point of putting something the college newspaper looking for support? I suppose it's worth a try to try and get signatures at tomorrows game. Also to send an e-mail to everyone on the supporter's club mailing list looking for support and an article in the next fanzine if any campaign is to go ahead.

Any chance of getting the last few posts into a new thread Schumi?

All the one topic really...

A previous thread nearly two years ago

about the move. Interestingly it mentions 2006 as the date for playing in the Bowl and nothing has happened there since.

So lads are any of you actually up for getting a campaign going?

I'm not. I want to see the new stadium built ASAP and get in there as Belfield is below defined standards and is a stick to beat our club with. Belfield Park has been earmarked to build a new research centre (is that right Bald Student?) and nothing will change that. I pray to God the new stadium will be decent and not just at minimum standard, though chances are it will.

Minimum standard is still kind of decent. That's the whole point.

Good point. Dman, I don't mean to crush your ideas or sweep them aside. Your heart is in the right place but this is truly an insurmountable battle and UCD cannot afford to be without a ground that does not meet requirements any longer. We've already overstretched. If somehow (and it's not even possible) we held it up then we'd be holding the club up in a below par ground. I might like it, and you might like it, but it does not meet defined standards. You've got to just suck it up and look forward to the move.

Yeah, I see your point. Well at least the new ground will be an improvement on Belfield Park.
