Good to c counyty chairman speak out about loss o elite status in paper today . John Horgan sounds like he couldn't be arsed

[delgany]

What's the reason for 2 managers?

Its a mystery. Money would be better spent on 2 coaches. Also they have a project manager?!

They do work with schools but also manage other aspects,  working with clubs, safeguarding courses, coach education etc.
One hurling / one football line managers - would be more apt role with the project manager on top.line !

A bleak report in the Irish News online today about the funding of Casement. This time the GAA wont be able to meet its 20% contribution "in the short to medium term".  How many more knocks can this project take before its pulled completely. What a disaster the whole thing has been.

[Belfast GAA man]

Yeah Fair thing wold be to sell One of Dublin's centres of excellence - greater need in Belfast

[Milltown Row2]

Just ask for it back, do it up and start playing games again, tear the stand down and put up something similar to Corrigan and away we go.

Why hasn't it been used since they closed it up?

Ahhh feck it, lets just build social housing twin it with Tiocfaidh Monagh or Tiocfaidh Ford housing developments. What a complete and utter B***s up. The biggest and only major construction project ever brought into West belfast for 40 years Jesus Wept!

[BigBallWeeBall]

With the recent terrible news about GAA financial situation I believe that we will have to wait 10 years for work to commence if at all. By this stage executive funding will have vanished and Casement will be returned to us as a small stadium that's fit for nothing. Shambles

[Na Glinntí Glasa]

personally i dont ever see Casement happening. By the time the GAA finds the money it will be too far down the line.

The planning approval will prob have ran out by that stage and need to go back in again! We may get used to Ballycastle and Corrigan Park for the foreseeable

[imtommygunn]

I would agree DR. At least Corrigan has that new stand - if we ever get to see it!

[EOC1923]

Have to agree with you on that DR. I cant see it ever happening. I cringe reading articles from Stephen McGeehan from Ulster GAA on the subject. What a mess Ulster GAA made of it all from the very start. In their strategic plan released just yesterday or the day before "there is renewed optimism work will finally commence in 2021". Even without the pandemic there is only 9 months left in the calendar year, and with all the various obstacles in the way what sort of idiots do they take people for ffs. Antrim should be calling this out!!!
