Fans bid to land president’s hot seat at Lansdowne memorabilia auction
Following the approval of planning permission in March to build a new stadium on the site of Lansdowne Road, the IRFU last night announced that hundreds of items of memorabilia and stadium collectibles will be sold between April 26 and 30.
Up for grabs will be items as diverse as the seat occupied by numerous Irish presidents over the years and the actual turnstile gates which have been in operation at the stadium for so long.
