    And if it was done what would be the safe capacity for that end........1,000+ maybe!

    It would really clean up that end of the ground and make it look more inviting than the dirty looking white washed walls and muddy grass bank of ground.

    Any hope of that happening!

    Were rovers fans in the normal away end last night? Hearing the toilet facilities were disgraceful, like worse than cork last year disgraceful.

    There's good toilets around the back of that stand but I'd guess they were fenced off to prevent access to away fans. I noticed fencing behind the stand at away fans end at the Bohemians game which I hadn't seen before. Were there portaloos at Rovers end?

    3 potaloos on grass, on a rainy day with 400 fans no prize for guessing how that went. And women had to argue with stewards to gain access to the designated women's toilets, a licencing requirement. A lot of people not impressed at all.

    Disgraceful that a club closes off proper toilet facilities to away fans.

    I know what you're getting at but in the instance youre wanting to bring up was different as it was a reaction to past behaviour in the ground by that set of supporters, also the portaloos weren't then put on grass in the rain.

    Probably the stadium owners who made that decision!

    Thankfully Rovers fans have no history of bad behaviour

    Certainly not - nor have I made such a claim.

    For what it is worth, in the case that you linked - a conviction for violent disorder in July 2013 - I think the individual involved can have no complaints about the 6 months sentence he received.

    Well done to the legal system for convicting him and sentencing him. We could do with more of it when there is trouble at matches. Decent people want to be safe on match evenings and do to want to to be associated with trouble like that.

    You wont find defence of the indefensible among general Dundalk fans. No excuses, blaming others, claiming bias! Scumbaggery is scumbaggery and we dont want scumbags anywhere near the club. It is both refreshing and a relief that progress has been made with the recent bannings and reports such as the one above offer an amount of satisfaction to read.

    One man, a Bohs fan, whom Gardai found unconscious on the ground, told them to 'f**k off' when he came round and claimed he had fallen

    That would have seemed the logical step to take when they had the concrete in last week, and I`m sure it could have been completed in under a week also. Disappointing but not unexpected they only did the bare minimum, perhaps they have other plans for that area, but this was the time to have cleaned it up, and they should have done a little more. There might be more 'gradual' improvements during the season, as the new owners have used that word quite a lot (gradual) and they also mentioned looking to upgrade the away area too.

    I would have been very sceptical of anything major happening, probably still am, but at least that job last week was done right I suppose and it wasn’t announced either, first most knew about it was from the club photos online, as I said earlier maybe they have more plans for later in the season.

    There is no reason to expect any further upgrades in Oriel Park this season, unless there is European licence problems

    Even then, presumably it would be easier to just use Tallaght? Ye'll have to go there anyway for later rounds
