Has anyone been to Austin Stack park before?

Post by Lone Shark »

It's time for the Shark crew to talk tactics. We need to make sure everyone can find us when we get down there - I'm trusting not everyone will be shy and stay away from us like the last time... :wink:

So what's the layout of the ground - is one side of the ground terraced, or would we have to go into one end? Or are there seats, but long benches where we could group together?

By asking this I'm giving away the fact that I haven't put up the road miles in the past that some of the hardcore among you may have done, but there's always time!

A few years since I was there.
There's a stand on the railway station side, a terrace on the opposite side, a grassy bank behind one of the goals and a terrace behind the other.

Seems like the obvious place. A few of the lads who are bringing their burds on Valentine's trips might have to sit in the stand with the Kerry crowd. :P

It was hard enough getting the missus down for the weekend when she found out Offaly were playing there .Thats what you get for marrying a Wexford woman with not even the remotest interest in anything GAA.....
