I see there's a proposal for Connaught Rugby to get involved in Eamonn Deacy Park. Who currently owns that stadium?

The Galway FA.

I've heard rumours that NUIG want to buy the land next to it and have a multipurpose stadium.  In the end I don't think anything will happen and it will stay as is.

Connacht crowds peaked in 2016. When sh*t hit the fan last year they weren't selling out the Sportsgrounds at all. Their in a similar situation to ourselves in the fact they don't own their homeground and are not reaping the full benefit.

Galway United will see no benefit if they decide to move in and upgrade the stadium. Galway FA will milk it for all its worth. We'll be left with a f**ked up pitch at various points of the season.

The idea of building a new multi-purpose stadium in the docks or even the old airport is ludicrous. We already have a GAA stadium we struggle to fill outside of a provincial final. Eamonn Deacy Park has rarely ever been full since its renovations and as much i'd love to see 5k coming to Galway United games week in week out, I don't see it happening anytime soon.

I'd pay going in the gate and going out tonight if it meant we could stay up.

It's going to be a fierce nervous night. Hopefully the Connaught - Munster game doesn't keep too many away.

Email from the Co Op. It just politely asks to consider doing it. No big deal imo.

Dundalk much the better footballing team but bit casual at times and cant shake off a determined but limited Galway team.
I could agree with you but then we'd both be wrong.

That was surely a pass back by Vemmelund 30 seconds before the goal??

Gonna go out on a limb and say Galway are the Spurs of the League of Ireland.

This ref is about as useful as an ash tray on a motorcycle.
