Football Association of Ireland's Facility Investment Vision and Strategy, and Governance Issues: Discussion

On the issue of facilities, Mr. Hill said one entity is not responsible and there have been 20 years of underinvestment. I sat in many press boxes across the League of Ireland with John Fallon from the Irish Examinerwhen he was involved with sport in Fingal and I was beside him covering that team. In fairness, we always got good wine and cheese when we went to Ferrycarrig and a fellow with blonde hair used to look after us. On the issue of facilities, Mr. Ó Lionáin said in the Department's statement that Bohemian FC was not entitled to this round of funding as it is still awaiting planning. He made a point of pointing that out. On Finn Harps FC, where is the process at and what is holding it up?
