Its really not thought. Having been at a couple of the recent NI games in the Aviva there was no issue at all with viewing distance!by BR » Fri Jun 10, 2011 7:31 am
But the soccer is often already disadvantaged at the likes of LR,Millennium, SdF, ... A 'traditional' soccer ground tends to have the crowd much closer the tha action (particularly behind the goal line). If you look at the likes of Adams Park, Loftus Rd, etc - the goal area for rugby is artificially small for this reason.

Lansdowne was a poor example on my part - pitchside is still very much that. Generally though big modern stadia have a large gap between goal line and punters (compared to traditional soccer grounds). I take your point though that it is insignificant compared to a the deadball area provided by a GAA ground.fuzzylogic wrote:Its really not thought.

I do think its a shame that when the monies were dished out that the rugby and soccer couldnt pool theirs and do something decent. I blame the IFA for that daft windsor leasebigchiefally wrote:Sell Windsor and Ravenhill. No chance of getting the IFA, Linfield and IRFU to agree to that
Buy land within 15 minutes stroll of city centre. Up near the TQ would do nice - but now you've linfield to consider
Build 20000 seat stadium with some convertible seats to terracing.This wouldnt work too great - the chances of a >20k crowd are more likely to be for a football match and they cant have standing at that. Standing for UR matches works well but get 6k standing and the place will feel as full as the Liberty
Job done.
