Casement Park in line for major overhaul - 40,000 all seater Stadium.

At £30m per game at the Euros David Healy doesn't think its worth building Casement.

The bigoted cnuts are sickened by the Casement decision and are queueing up to diss it.!!

Who really cares what Healy thinks? I'd love NI to qualify and be sent to Newcastle  for their group games

Like WTF are The Irish News asking for his opinion for?

Páirc Uí Chaoimh won't be available for Cork's home group game in the AI/TC due to the Springsteen concert.

Then again it's only oul football the Hurley stuff isn't affected 🙄

Pairc Ui Rinn could hold comfortably the Cork football supporters, especially if its not against Kerry.

Hurlers get multiples more supporters even if they're not going well either.

They didn't. It was article in Belfast Telegraph, latest in its agenda against Casement. IN just reported it. The bitterness of these people over Casement is a joy to behold.

The Casement thread is a bit like the Man Utd thread. A very long story of mí ádh

[AustinPowers]

Norn Iron are unlikely  to qualify , so the GAWA  won't  have  to worry about ever playing at Casement.

And if the likes of  Croatia, Turkey  or Hungary play in Casement, those games  might as  well be   in Manchester or Newcastle.   Andytown is hardly on  any NI fan's radar anyway, so what will it matter to them  where they're played?

They have to claw back some money for these white elephant stadiums. GAA crowds are rapidly declining due to many factors, and the big crowds are few and far between.

I'd seriously question what GAA matches would even fill the new Casement with the Ulster Champ being slowly downgraded now every year. We're told there isn't even going be much parking? All the moaning about parking in fields in Clones, at least they had actual place to park.

There mightn't even be an Ulster Championship in 5 years the way the GAA is going.

That is a genuine problem, because that completely undermines Casement. Its only hope are Ulster finals.

So no games will be played in the north?

Some would, but Casement has no significant home crowd, and it is only a suitable mid point for a few combinations. An Ulster championship forces those combinations, other systems will not.

You'd be a complete fool if you think if it went down as no provincial finals route that Casement wouldn't be used to get more fans in to generate more money..

Oh, let's get 10000 people into another ground when 20,000 want to watch the match... now let's see where that game gets appointed?

Seriously? There are plenty on complaining about not getting tickets for games or whatever, Casement will get games in either format

[snoopdog]

When casement is built the GAA will need to invest in Down and Antrim to get them using it in the All Ireland series.
