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

[Franko]

Only an idiot would do that.  If that's you... well...

And yes, there is 30 odd miles of dual carriageway on the main routes into Belfast (M2/M22/A6 - M1/A1 - M1).

When the Dungiven bypass is complete, over 70% of the road between Derry and Belfast will be dual carriageway.

These are facts.  They're not disputable.

What's tradition got to do with it?

Something else to moan about just?

[Will it ever end]

You do realise that Derry to Belfast road will be immeasurably improved well ahead of any Casement build, and should take you 30 minutes less to travel despite being a longer distance trip.

Such a silly argument!

[full moon]

Half the province doesn't even have a train station so not sure its relevant. I think there is only one bus a day going to Belfast and back from Cavan, not sure its on everyday either.

Such a silly claim. 30 mins lmfao. Anyhow it's not about derry to Belfast . It's about the fact that the residents didn't want the stadium , it's in an overly congested area of Belfast with very very poor access and is now into millions of overspend when it never had any tradition before in that location and is in no way handy ti "Gaels of Ulster" . It's for the new age fat cat suits in GAA, Mc Cavanagh, Mc Geehan etc and all their buddies.

This is modern day David and Goliath story

[Upandover]

What about those residents who did want it?

This forum reads like the belfast telegraph ffs.
"Gaa men" complaining about a new state of the art stadium, couldnt write it.

Any wonder the GAA in Derry City is in the state it's in when this is the attitude to development.  We can't build a new ground on the site of a ground that has stood for 70 odd years because "no tradition" 

As has already been explained to you multiple times, access to Casement is much better for most of the gaels of ulster than access to Clones.  That includes yourself.

You'd be the same clown that would defend that aberration in terms of access (amongst other things) that Derry have built on the Lonemoor road.

This is getting a bit tiresome.  It's difficult to discuss things with someone who thinks that their opinion carries more weight than actual facts

ffs where did i ever mention clones as a better option you absolute clown. Stop muddying the water. I havent a clue what the remark about derry city gaa has to do with anything, childish. Steelstown won AIIF last time I checked we have 2 lads on senior Derry football panel and 3 hurling so not doing too bad thank you

[Milltown Row2]

Funny enough I was heading into Belfast tonight to ref a game, I noticed there was a good lot heading towards Windsor by train.. now as heading along the Westlink it was busy at turn off at Broadway, they have been doing that for years in a built up (shitty area) housing area, no issues. Stadiums in built up areas with poor parking can work

Yip norn iron playing the greeks tonight at windsor.
