Toilet facilities at GAA grounds

Sport
1

The standard of toilet facilities at GAA grounds is generally awful and it annoys me. Please post reviews of any tollets at GAA grounds you have ventured into.

Pairc Ui Rinn, Cork
Urinals consisted of a two walls with tiny troughs.
There was a small amount of toilet paper in the dispenser.
Two sinks, one with no running water. Water in the other sink was extremely cold.
Tap was too close to the side of the sink, making it quite inconvenient to position your hands underneath.
No soap.
Hand dryer not working.
Overall score: 3/10

The poor toilet facilities at Pairc Ui Rinn are an indictment of the richest county board in Ireland.

Wexford Park has stainless steel urinals and sinks. It’s not uncommon to see auld lads pissing in the sinks. Well I’ve seen it happen once.

They couldn’t be worse than cusack park, Ennis. An absolute joke of a set up. You wouldn’t let a dog take a piss in there. the worst I’ve ever seen

Been in Cusack Park once (Clare v Dublin 2012 hurling qualifier) and there was no running water in any sink. Squalid.

Nothing like going for a piss in kenny park in the winter as the galway club championship comes to a close. The stainless steel urinal trough isn’t tilted enough to allow all the piss to flow away so it kind sits there.

The reek that rises when you start pissing and your own warm pisses mixes with the thick cool concentrate is a memorable scent…

Couldn’t disagree with that. I doubt there is worse facilities at any of our club grounds.

What you expect from those animals?

Has anyone ever had the misfortune to need a Craig white in any of these places?

Anyone on the board that’s actually played in Wexford Park? I heard from a source close to a player who’s played there that the doors on the cubicles in the dressing rooms don’t close. They’re about an inch too big for the door frame. And have been like this since the new park was opened in 2001.

Slightly more subtle than " just in the door from…"

Skilful, accurate amateur psychoanalysis from @dancarter.

Ten posts in and no mention of semple :confused:

There appeared to be a good crew of Dubs behind the goal based on clip I sew on the news

What sort of geebag washes their hands in a GAA ground

It’s like washing your hands in a mart.

A bunch of softies.

Fuck sake, sure the sinks are worse than the urinals.

I haven’t been to the new toilets in Pairc Sean. The old ones were just a bunch of walls up against which you pissed.

18

Sid smokes I think. You’d want to be a fair animal to smoke with a hand covered in piss

Some of us are hygienic enough for it to not make any great difference but washing of hands would make a big difference to the hygiene of the average rural GAA match goer. A post match handshake with an opposing fan can be fraught with health risks.

Washing hands at this time of year is a hypothermia risk

The toilets in Conleths Park are a fucking sham, the county board should be ashamed of them. I remember being in the toilets under the stand when I was young enough and seeing a rat scurrying about with abandon, disgusting.
