Good to see some action by City & the MFA.
Addition of a small bar (even with limited opening hours) would make it perfect.
Whose gonna be the first to get their copy of the plans?![]()
Cork City Council:

Cork Corporation has re-badged itself as "Cork City Council".
As far as I know the Cork City Council's Planning Department is at Navigation House on Albert Quay.

The capacity of the new stand going to be? They should put the plans and a design up for the match against Rovers. We could all inspect it then.

lots of talk and asking but has anyone actually rooted this plans out then? Being in Dublin George's Quay is a bit of a trip for me!
I think the new capacity of the ground will be 7,500 so that must mean the new stand will hold about 1,500/1,600Originally posted by eoinh

AFAIK the supporters club intend getting a copy of the plans and putting them on display in the programme hut on Friday night
Would you not be better off putting a roof over the far end first ?
AFAIK that is also covered by the planning application that has been lodged, though i stand to be corrected on thatOriginally posted by TommyT

Id like to see a cover put on the St Annes end before the Shed gets knocked, although with 'summer' soccer on the way it shouldnt matter too much. It would help with atmosphere though.

Was talking to the engineer in charge of the project and he told me the plans for the new stand are only in their infancy but that they applied for the planning premission so that when the plans are ready they can proceed without delay. Don't expect anything till summer at the earliest
had a look at the plans today and they look quite good
it looks like the roof on St. Anne's will cover all the seats and there'll be toilets and shop space built up their too
the new stand at the shed end runs the full width of the pitch and will have 1,471 seats - 5 blocks of 290, 355, 181, 355, 290. The middle block is labelled VIP seating and it looks like there's also a glass-enclosed VIP area at the back. Underneath there's ladies and gents toilets, two dressing rooms (one bigger than the other - but don't tell the away team that methinks), a ref's changing room, hospitality room and a room labelled Cork City FC. The tunnel comes onto the pitch right behind the goal. It's not quite as tall, or as deep, as The Shed, but not far off it either and the total seating capacity will be 7,426.
a VIP section in the shed
that'll be for moses and the boys right![]()
It'll be a nice tidy ground when all thats done. pity they didnt try and go for the 10k capacity though. i'd say a city team doing well would fill the 7k regularly so th capacity will be tested regularly
