€2m funding for Glanmire development described as a 'massive shot in the arm' for Cork football

The long-awaited Cork City Centre of Excellence in Glanmire finally looks set to break ground after the government this morning announced funding of €2.025m for the stalled project.

The development, which was launched in 2016, is a partnership agreement between the FAI, FORAS — the trust that operates Cork City — and Cork County Council.
