The directors of Staid Cois Laoi, the company tasked with running the redeveloped Páirc Uí Chaoimh, will meet in the next fortnight, with Munster rugby games, financial compliance, and naming rights for the stadium expected to feature on the agenda.

EVENTUALLY someone will talk sense about opening up Croke Park, but you probably shouldn’t hold your breath.
