It's been sold, so Shels have to get out, and sooner rather than later, you'd imagine. Don't think there's been any solid news though. You get the odd rumour that they're looking at Whitehall or the AUL, but nothing definite.
Ah now i don't think so. In fairness there are a hell of a lot worse grounds in the country. I don't buy that when people say its a dive. Its an all-seater staduim. Tbh, i would have it up there in the top 3 loi grounds. I prefer going to it than Dalymount, Inchicore, etc. Good ground in a league of pathetic grounds. Would be missed if it went imo.

Whitehall is not gonna happen after home farm members voted against the idea early last year. When we had our supporters meeting with the board at the start of the season a return to irishtown stadium was one of 2 options being looked at. the other being the AUL. Considering the club is from irishtown and the surrounding area thats the preferred choice but there's already opposition to the proposal from locals so i'd say its a pipe dream to be honest.
The AUL would be a disasterous move for the club considering there's no transport system but we prob d'ont have much of a choice as if we're to be kicked out of tolka in the next season or 2.
Irishtown was built without seats specifically to stop Shamrock Rovers, or any senior club, moving in.
A leading authority on League of Ireland football since 2003. You're probably wrong.
Are Fingal (still?) moving to Swords? Any details online?

what fuucking galaxy are you in! i'm here in front of my computer busting my sides at this crap!
One stand is decent, on another sidethere is a barn. with the worst excuse for lights i've ever seen. each step is different than the one before it so its like walking up stairs in a fun-house. then the walkway in front of the barn is is like a road done by the CoCo its so bad. i nearly had a faceful of curry chips on the way back to my seat. on the opposite side of the barn is a nice enough but mostly unused stand. and then opposite the chipper is indescribable!
When i read this first i though you said you wouldn't have this in the top three grounds, but when i read it properly i nearly couldn't believe it. it wouldn't be in the same diocese as the top three grounds.
Sporting F*ck All!
Fingal are screwed if they move to Lusk
I was really worried about them when they came on the scene as a move to Swords would have been the Northside version of Rovers going to Tallaght.
However Lusk
Goodbye Fingal !!!!
John Delaney!! GET OUT!!!

Will those seats be covered Lamper? That picture doesn't seem so.
It does indeed say that, but the artist's impression that goes with it clearly shows a large open stand, so it's a legitimate question to ask which is it supposed to be.
