Has anybody suggested rebuilding PUC? I missed it if they did. All I’ve noticed is the suggestion of installing temporary seating, which in itself may not be permitted.

Has been well discussed on here before that PUC is nowhere near to meeting the requirements need to host a Euros game - Just go look at the UEFA Categorry 4 stadium requirements. Would costs tens of millions to rebuild areas of it to make it suitable which just isn't going to happen. 
Fair enough, only recall seeing mentions of temp seats.

I'm sure it woukd be much cheaper than rebuilding casement. Nail a few thousand seats behind the goal and it would be all good? Cork would be a much better venue than Belfast 

For the Irish government it would be more expensive than any contribution they'd make to Casement.
Temporary seating is not allowed by UEFA. Then you'd need to create extra hospitality areas on the stadium, additional TV studios, parking and broadcast areas outside, increased media facilities etc. 

Casement requires 4k of some type of temporary seating as its only 26k seater. Whether that means installing 4k 'permanent' seats then ripping them out I dont know. Might also be a planning issue. 

They will be permanent seats that will be converted back to terracing afterwards seemingly. 
So they will be permanent seats temporarliyLOL

I suppose all seating is temporary in the long run.

Most of the current TE squad ( fourteen ) are English or Scottish ( mainly English ). Of the indigenous remainder, not too many from a nationalist background and all the sectarian nonsense recently about Casement Park will no doubt ensure that this trend continues.

Was that not a genuine concern about funding that the ever progressive Gregory Campbell told us on sky news? LOL

Game was brutal. It was very windy apparently that night. 

In fairness the North's goal was an absolute cracker.

Awful result for them last night losing 4 0 to Finland. Both Ireland's have had poor campaigns but that result is worse than any we have had.

That was one he'll of a night but we gotbthere in the end. RIP Alan, and also RIP Alan on the other side. I believe Mcdonald was a top bloke, looked after all the Irish kids at QPR, told this my a Dublin lad that was at QPR at the time and cleaned McDonald's boots.

I think that was in a documentary. They were happy to give us a scare but were glad we qualified.

It was something along those lines.

Really?

After paid British state agents walked into the Rising Sun bar and sprayed the joint with automatic fire killing 9 and injuring 19 and OWC glorifying this event on the terraces whilst being egged on by Bingham.

I would say the vast majority were not happy to see us qualify. Some of the players maybe. 

Alan McDonald was a class act by all accounts but I'm not so sure Tommy Wright the goalie especially was delighted we qualified. LOL

As for that horrible coont Bingham and his disgraceful comments on our players, delighted he was sickened at his retirement party. The most sweetest way we could've possibly qualified at Windsor and all. Clap

The Greysteel chanting almost certainly comes from the Marie Jones play.  She watched the game at home.  It is still a major issue with their fans.

I watched the game from the lower North Stand.  I certainly didn't hear any "Trick or Treat" or anything re Greysteel.  There was certainly plenty of "Fenian b^&***" and "up to our knees..."  from a section of their fans.  Hard to believe it is over 30 years ago.  

I've said on here before I do think it was way overblown in the media.  I'm not trying to downplay the sectarianism and Alan Kernaghan in particular got terrible abuse.  I lost it when we scored and certainly had an "Oh Sh1t" moment but nothing untoward was said or done to me.  It was obvious where I was from and that I had a radio.  I ended up in my seat at the final whistle listening to the last 2 minutes from Seville giving 15-20 of their fans updates.  At the final whistle they just walked off a couple said good luck and the worst thing ssaid was "jammy bast..."   My friends were about 20 yards away at the exit watching it having not be outed.  I think very few of their fans wanted us to qualify.  

We tried to get the game moved which went down very badly.  Also the "one team in Ireland" chant at 3-0 six months earlier didn't get taken well.  In fairness I wasn't enjoying it after Jimmy Quinn's goal either when it was belted out.  

Obviously a totally different atmosphere there now.  They actually did play out of their skins v Italy two years ago and cost them a place at the World Cup.
