Totally, but the Cork county board were happy to go with it, this comes from the top
Thatās what heās saying
If weāve learned anything of late itās that the GAA are susceptible to peer pressure
Why does the second city in Ireland have a soccer stadium that can only hold 7,000? Thatās the big question for me.
Hold it in Thomond, thatās where all the top sports in Cork go
I thought Thomond as well. Be ideal. Just up the road.
you do mean up the motorway?
Up the Pretend Motorway.
Up the pretend motorway to a pretend sporting event
Up the pretend motorway to a pretend sporting event in a pretend cauldron of atmosphere
The Land Commission
Absolute treachery, 30 million euro of taxpayers money went into the stadium upgrade.
A charity event, ffs.
Thats your beloved GGA for you. They should have asked Philip Browne for the use of the aviva
Iād prefer not to score points off it pal.
Its shocking form.
Doesnt work like that.
And yes it is shocking form its a fucking joke. But it isnt really new news is it that the GAA takes a protectionist view of its assets.
Are ypu sure about that?
Itās more like Cork CB said we canāt take anymore hassle. Ironically they created some and are now in breach of grant money application rules.
I got some insight insight the past week to bob Ryan departure and franks surprising decision not to stay involved again goibg forward. Advised to run. Some serious irregularities with tenders
The Cork board have no objections, it would have to go before congress unless somebody at the top goes on a solo run
They are breaking the law here though. An investigation has started
The word is the Cork CB said do not approve the application. Or at least that is the feeling from people involved in the event
Itās a fucking disgrace
Whatās the capacity of Musgrave Park? Surely that would be better than Turnerās Cross? Or the Mardyke? Sure they regularly get over 60,000 at college games there
