Dalymount Park: The home of Irish football was a field of dreams
The stadium’s place in history is already secure, of course, and while its future is hardly likely to be as a venue for senior international game and FAI Cup finals, advanced plans to redevelop ‘Dalyer’ should ensure that top flight domestic football will continue to have a proper home in Phibsborough.
