Road access is a major problem for Clones. It's bad enough as it is - with 50,000 people it would be impossible. The Ulster Council should take this opportunity to rethink its strategy for the location of Ulster finals. Healy Park is the obvious choice due to its location in the centre of Ulster and also its road access. Unfortunately though the Irish government isn't going to invest €12 million (although they paid for the floodlights via the Ulster Council!) into a sports facility in Northern Ireland and there's no chance the British government will make a significant contribution to the GAA. Obviously Casement is another option but it's distance from a lot of Ulster counties doesn't help its case.
Healy Park is the obvious choice - it can hardly be accused of offering the home team an advantage hardly! I'm smiling again
