How do you go £25 million over? That's a shitload of dough.

I mean, wasn't Casement meant to cost £60 million? 25 m is nearly half that!

Already £10m sunk on Casement and no work has started obviously

True, but just using that as a guide. 25m nearly half a stadium. Probably a third of total cost for puc. Just mad how costs can go over by so much

Ros, Kildare, Mayowestros,  Galway,  Cork........
All need(ed) Central GAA help.
Surely time for some full time staff to be provided to the Provincial Councils to assist the Co Board Volunteers with projects and finances, oversight etc
This  would be a very positive move

Was there much incentive for them to keep the cost down if they knew Croke Park would have to step in and bail them out?

Croke Park don't do bail outs, they do refinancing deals.

Cork GAA will pay in the long run.

Big Screen(s) and Hawkeye still required. Wonder what the final cost would be?! Phase 2 perhaps.

Looks no different bar 1 side.

and if you get no closer it probably isn't and your not cramped into the tiny seats
but when the crumbling old wreck fell down that's when people would be giving out .
BTW was the 1st picture take before they installed the River lee???

Taken from the opposite side, the river is just at the bottom of the shot.

Now we know why there was an increase in the ticket for the county hurling final in mid-October: €20 up to €25 with a crowd of just over 10, 000 in attendence.

So closed until the pitch is fixed, Cork games to Pairc i Rinn.

Geezer on the news said either a full year to redo the pitch right or do what Croker do at eyewatering cost

That's what happens when you let soccerball in.







Better out one if these in for the non Connacht folks ;D

The Cork boyos trying to blame Croke Park for the state of the pitch.
