Quote from: twohands!!! on October 03, 2024, 04:41:27 PMWell there'd be at least fumigation costs annually in that caseQuote from: armaghniac on October 03, 2024, 04:40:40 PMQuote from: twohands!!! on October 03, 2024, 04:39:09 PMQuote from: NAG1 on October 03, 2024, 02:37:26 PMMissing the point here, that Casement even being built to 'GAA' spec would still be a very attractive venue for large scale events and concerts etc. So the powers that be should be getting heads together now and determining how to deliver this on a scale and budget that works.
Pretty sure the final planning granted for Casement said that only 3 concerts/large scale events per year could be held there which would seriously limit this as a revenue stream.
Pairc Ui Chaoimh and Croker have similar restrictions on the number of concerts.
Pairc Ui Chaoimh have only managed to have the maximum number of concerts for one of the years since it reopened and I'm sure there are loads of years that Croke Park hasn't managed to hold their maximum number of concerts.
So while Casement would possibly get some concerts, it definitely wouldn't be all that reliable an ongoing revenue stream.
The could have the 12th of July there, that would be every year.
Probably would have to rebuild it every year.

Quote from: TheBarrel on April 05, 2024, 10:26:42 PMIs sledging still a significant issue in footballing circles? I mostly take in hurling when I get the chance but happened to go to the Downpatrick and St. John's Drumnaquoilr contest on Wednesday with my nephew. Some of the abuse was shameful. Really personal stuff being dished out which I heard first hand. No place for this in our games

Was at Saul v RGU
But no players team sheets or programme ? This was always part and parcel of championship
What going on
There might not have been a printed programme, but in my opinion the game itself was worth the £6 in as it was quite entertaining. Saul maybe should have tried another one or two balls in to O'Hare, as his fielding was superb at times.
Bell was excellent for RGU in the middle.
Caught that game also it was a close game. Great start from Saul but a strong finish to the first half from RGU. Peter Turley still doing the business at his age too

No issue with the £6 for adults but charging the same price for 12 year olds and £2 for toddlers is taking the piss.
So would it be ok if it was £10 for adults and £6 for 12-18? Just so
It is not the same? Same crying match every year over prices, its £4/£5 into a league game all year the extra £1 for championship early rounds is fair. Ok £2 for u12 isn't ideal but if you were to take an u12 to a game in other local sports or indeed Croke Park it costs alot more. Its £13 for an Irish League game and £10 for Rugby, £6 good value or just watch on down tv. £30 to get the whole family out to watch my club in the championship for an evening is well worth it. Same who complain probably no issue paying £5 for pint

Why are so many reserve fixture being conceded ?
Quote from: ardtole on April 19, 2023, 09:03:09 PMI think in fairness the promo for this has been excellent and out well in advance, probably since January through clubs and social media. Is an excellent fundraiser but cost of living issue definitely having effect
I do intend to buy one, I like the fact my own club benefits directly from it as well. I just think next year they could provide a bit more notice than 3 or 4 days. Maybe if I was living in Ardglass I'd have been more aware of it.

Quote from: Truth hurts on March 09, 2023, 12:27:03 PMWhere is this Pathway, TH? I'd sure love to know.
I am always open to a good debate on all things Down but the constant whingers will be drowned out as there is now a pathway developing and a pride coming into that famous Down jersey again.
