Power struggle within Croke Park?

[LeoMc]

Yeah, but the majority of those resulted from functions being held on club property, i.e. birthday parties etc.

All signs of how litigious we have become.

Newbridge a kip in 1993? What are you on about? Which other grounds had you been to? It's rundown now in comparison to other grounds but in 1993, it would have been more than acceptable. You take all this in from the pitch? The dressing rooms were too small. Accepted. Rest of it was fine. Relatively speaking.

I always found Newbridge to be a grand venue and one you'd really look forward to going to. It has one of the best locations in Ireland, right in the centre of the town, and the ground itself really lends itself to generating a good atmosphere. It was a brilliant venue for Leinster club matches back in the 90s and early 2000s. Dublin played there a couple of times in the league around that period too, '94 and '95, and those games had really good atmospheres, miles better than what would be generated in Portlaoise, Navan or Tullamore.

Not sure why it gets such a bad rap.

Was in Navan for the Tyrone game;  thought it was grand to be honest
