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

Looks class to be fair.

Re funding - not all is coming from Stormont.

A sizeable chunk, is to come from GAA HQ. This money is conditional on the development reaching a certain capacity - which the revised plans, reduced to 34,500, do easily. It's not a coincidence that this figure is greater than the current capacity of Clones.

IF the Ulster Final is moved to Casement down the line,  would it not mean the GAA being hit with a fair old tax bill from gate receipts?

Antrim just need to find a football and hurling team now

I'm assuming it will contain a modern, health & safety compliant grass bank at one end.

Clones will always be the spiritual home of Ulster GAA.

There will be a demountable grass bank for when Meath come. The sprinkler system in the roof will water this grass,  and when the Meathies lose the run of themselves.

And ye'll have to take down the floodlights too

[thejuice]

If Pairc Tailteann is ever redeveloped I wonder what you'd have to spend on it. I reckon we wouldn't need more than a 25,000 capacity ground. Cork are spending €70m on a 50,000 seater. Nothing like that kind of money isn't really floating around these days. I suppose we're lucky to have Dunganny.

Given the way the floodlights were handled if it ever happens it needs to be taken out of the county boards hands completely.

I thought it was Galbally

[Milltown Row2]

CASEMENT PARK = WASTE OF MONEY

DO WE REALLY NEED A NEW STADIUM?

IF WE DO WHY NOT BUILD IT IN CENTRAL ULSTER?

If we do why not build it in central Ulster!!

Cause it's Casement and nowhere else ffs?? Where have you been??

-2, the home of Ulster football you mean. I know the Ulster Council make it hard to tell the difference at times.

So far I'm really impressed with the design. The bowl is the sensible option ensuring all attendees are fully covered. Hopefully it meets the needs of the local residents and acts as a catalyst to improve the area of Andytown.!
