McDonald’s construction: rugby club ‘not loving it’

Sunday’s Well Rugby Football Club yesterday said players have been endangered by the construction of a wall by McDonald’s restaurant close to the dead ball area of a pitch.

Kieran Hughes, barrister for Sunday’s Well, said the matter was before Cork Circuit Court yesterday by way of a planning injunction by the club against McDonald’s, which is building a drive-thru restaurant adjacent to the club grounds at Musgrave Park in Cork.

Judge David Riordan asked Mr Hughes if he was seeking an injunction against McDonald’s. Mr Hughes said the application was not being made yesterday but his clients were looking for a date for hearing of the matter.
