No way. Yeah and what the fcuk is a "National Stadium" - . Surely the new Lansdowne (can't see it being built) won't be one due to its failure to accommodate our national games and of course athletics.

No. But I can't see it not being the National Stadium. Especially if the media latch on to the bandwagon.

The carrot that will be dangled in front of the GAA by the end of next year will be to let Croke Park become  a national stadium with a retractable roof and the completion of the hill covered, not seated.

Full back,
But, if it's a National Stadium, then the three major sporting organisations will have equal call on it, therefore gaelic games will be denied use when they might otherwise have had free reign, therefore how could the terms ever be right in such a circumstance?

I haven't voted, because it depends what's meant by 'national stadium' and what the terms would be.

Jaysus lads,

have ye lost the plot, it should not even be open to question, but thats what the GAA has left itself open to after the last couple of sundays

Definite and strong NO!

Croke Park is being used at the moment for Soccer and Rugby and that should stay as a temporary arrangement.

No way should the IRFU and FAI get to stay in Croke Park for any longer than has already been agreed.

No Soccer or Rugby in Croke Park after 2008. Let them work on landsdown road or build the new stadium in Abbotstown. Being professional and with support from the government and businesses they have no excuses.

Bertie should have gone ahead with Abbotstown it in the first place instead of listening to the media.


There should be absolutely no question anyway
