Thankfully the work on our ground is nearly finished! Better drainage, tarmaced area between clubhouse & stand, new wall, new wheelchair section....its really looking lovely!
Having seen it first hand Saturday I can confirm Athlone Towns new stand is class
Been in every LoI ground except Turners Cross and it's the best I've seen
It was said on the bit about the new ground on TV3 that the far side of the pitch will be done next year.. It will be finished on all sides over the next number of seasons but I havent spoken to any of the stadium committee in the last while though I will at the official opening on Thursday and find out more.
I am sure there will be an official announcement regarding this at the opening on Thursday
The proposed 1700 seater stand in the RSC has been mothballed. Projected cost was 2.5m to bring it up to UEFA standards and Waterford City Council baulked when they saw that.
How much did the 2000 seater in Athlone cost?

No Pablo - the old shed was demolised in 2005 when the new pitch was installed as the pitch itself was moved closer to the stand, this created a massive gap from where the old shed stood. The terracing in the photo was only built in 2005 and has been uncovered since. Also the old shed was positioned from the half way line to the town end goal. This new shed as the photo shows is perfectly postioned as its more central. Should improve the atmosphere not to mention keep the younger fans dry
ps it was only started on sat am - how good progress is that
