Hi Thomas

Plans will be on display from next month

Hopefully it'll be a decent development and not one of those GAA-esque shed stands

Great to be able to talk about any sort of a stand going up...even a lego one...after the last 23 years endured by this city concerning senior soccer....

If cows watched field sports, you would build them one

**Magicme** · 18/05/2007, 11:48 AM

We didnt do that coz the cows were outside of our ground boundaries.

Yea but ye still count them as part of the official attendence don't ye?

No....and certainly not able to anymore since they have been banished and are in the process of being replaced by a housing estate.

GIP Mons Cows.

Well, we're half way through the next month (ref Old Keeper's post), anyone seen the plans yet?

Old-Keeper, I think you posted last summer that the terrace of 3 story houses facing the People's Park was due to be knocked, has there been any further development on this?

Good luck with the plans, great to see the steps forward being taken.

Hi Joey

We are a bit behind on the plans, due to the number of games being played in the park, this has also delayed the work as we have not had a break in games for almost 5 weeks now. Sunday sees the last junior game of the season in the MJC Final between Pike and Balla so there should be some movement after that.

are there plans to put in a pathway around the back of the clubhouse for fans leaving from the farside of the ground at full time?

Or some lighting?

Could always maybe go around the otherside until then??

**atfconline** · 17/06/2007, 8:36 PM

Around the front of the club house, or around the other end of the pitch?

Or wait for the players to go off and walk in front of the clubhouse

I just think the club should be cut a little slack with regards to ground improvements for a few months at least

Makes little odds to me really, I was just following up the query of a Limerick fan.

That said, sticking a floodlight onto the back of the clubhouse, if that area is going to be open to fans, would hardly be considered as a major ground development. It should be in the clubs's own interest to make sure people aren't falling there.
