Managed to walk up to the upper cusack during the first game on Saturday. A steward told us quiet aggressively to move. We declined his offer and decided to sit it out. Eventually two gardai were called and escorted us back to our original seats despite the fact that we had young children with us.

Hang on, was the upper cusack open?

Yes at least we were able to walk up unimpeded and it wasnt until we were sat down on a dry seat that the jobsworth decided to throw us out.

Were any other fans up there?

Yes there were a few [about thirty] most of them left when first approached by the stewart but the three of us plus a father and son from armagh were eventually thrown out by the gaurds.

Well I imagine there'd be a requirement to have a steward/stewards for each open section, so given that there were plenty of covered seats on the lower deck, I don't think you can complain.

When we went up to the upper deck it was during the first game and there were not any covered seats available. I had my young son with me and our seats were uncovered. There were stewards in the upper deck at the time and i also noticed that a group of people managed to stay in the upper deck of the hogan throughout the second game.

any chance this is going to be televised ?

No dont think so

Seemingly clones in doubt too. Venue announcement made prematurely at the game yesterday. Venue and time tbc tomorrow

As far as i know Armagh were offered Clones or Omagh and opted for Clones.

Amazing there isn't a layout of the stand anywhere online

They're selling section K now online
Is that away down near the bottom goals? Does it run from A near the wheelchair area to what letter?

Yes starts from A beside wheelchair stand think it runs to N . Contacted season ticket office and they said allocation is made by Ulster council , rang ulster council and they said that i was just unlucky but that the seats are allocated by croke park. Was also informed that for armagh last week that the front row of seats were not allocated as it was felt that they were too low. Wont be renewing season ticket next year.

printed my tickets last night for the match and when passing the pitch this morning i went in to see what my seats were like and true to form the ulster council have allocated extremely poor seats to season ticket holders. Has anybody on here had any luck getting their tickets changed ?

Didn't get them changed but got them grouped (for the NFL final and left the group in place for this one). Allocated GA open stand, section GER DO, wherever that is? 

GER DO is the section at the front of the gerry arthurs around the 20 mtr line depending on seat number (lower numbers closest to 20, higher closer to 45) My seats are for row A which is below the level of the pitch. Would prefer Pat mc Grane or even Hill . I am going to ring Ulster council later as this isn't the first time season ticket holders have been fobbed off with inferior tickets

Jarlath Burns reckons the residents are now "broadly" behind the new Casement.

Hmm, not sure where he heard that. It certainly flys in the face of what I've been hearing.
It must have come from somewhere though. Strange.

I'd imagine it came from the p.r. section of the ulster council. Then again Jarlath has been one of the main advocates of this project all along.

Monaghan are a bit like Dublin, pretty much get to play all their games at home in Ulster which is an unfair advantage.

Nonsense. If down beat tyrone we play them in newry. Played antrim last year in casement.

Longford , birth year Jan 1. But never heard any of any official queries about any players age

Ditto in Monaghan

Kings, Queens, princes and princesses of ulster football. not bad couldn't of dreamed of that at the start of the year. Throw in nfl div 3, beating caavan out of ulster can it get much better ?

2014
Build on 2013
all-star for Dessie Moen [even for the ability to wind up two tyronies at the same time] priceless

They changed their minds before about how this money should be spent. Have ye never heard of a politician changing their minds?

Jarlath Burns remedy for economic deprivation in belfast is to build a stadium that the locals clearly dont want . While at the same time taking a major economic benefit from a deprived rural community. I look forward to his future articles about rural decline and its impact on Gaa clubs.
