What will be the seated capacity of Tallaght now after the new stand is finished?
What will be the seated capacity of Tallaght now after the new stand is finished?
And when will it be finished?
Drogs Who?!?
Great to see. Its a ground that the league can be proud off. Im green with envy and id say its a great buzz to be heading to that ground every second week. Best of luck with it.
I didnt rate the actual playing surface when we played up there a while back, thought the grass was abit long and awful, it will be a hell of a stadium once the new stand is up and running? WIll there be home fans based in the new stand too or will it just be for away fans(I know it will never be full if just for away fans)
Drogs Who?!?
RTE are still refusing to use the new purpose-built TV gantry at Terryland. Instead, they plonk their camera in the new pressbox of the new stand. Originally, RTE were invited to make suggestions for the design of the new TV gantry and in fact, it was built to their exact specifications.
It is important that LOI grounds are best shown in their best light but RTE aren't playing ball.
I noticed that the TV cameras have moved in the Showgrounds. They have moved over to the other side of the ground which portrays the the newer stand in Sligo which looks very impressive on MNS.
It makes me wonder why the RTE cameras operate from the newer stand at Cork City? The other side of the ground looks crap on TV.
Nobody knows us, we don't care
We have always had a gantry above the shed apart from the year we "won" the promotion/relegation playoff but we didnt have any live games that season. The following season we had a roof put on the shed and a gantry put in place above it and it was used by both the club and by either TV3 or RTE for any of our live games to date. It faces the main stand. I think they try to get them to face the main stands as in Richmond it faces the covered stand, Dalymount it faces the big long covered stand etc etc.

Not sure. It was earmarked for this summer. As far as i know its still going to happen but the plans have had to be adjusted 2 or 3 times and then put back out for public viewing each time. So once everybody is happy building will start. The funding is still in place from what iv heard.
There has been a very important addition to the facilities at Terryland which will put a smile on everyones face. New club sponsors, Pappa John Pizza, have set up an outlet to sell there pizzas at all home games.
The pepperoni pizza slice will challenge the Mon Dog at Monaghan for the best food at a LOI stadium.

Monaghan have a stadium?
Dundalk's Youth Development Center is coming along nicely.:
