		At the far end is the Ballybough Stand, which only runs for two-thirds of the pitch, and is a medium sized, uncovered all-seated stand, which dips down towards the river.
		Completing the Tolka Park picture is the Richmond Road (or Main) Stand.
		As with the other Irish grounds that I saw, by English standards, then it would be one of the worst in the league, but it does have a unique charm and looks to be a good place to watch a match from.

	ESPN.com - SOCCER - Man. United's Keane returns to Ireland
		Keane led out a strong United side for a friendly against Irish champions Shelbourne in Dublin's Tolka Park, the English team beginning their pre-season campaign with a comfortable 5-0 win.
		The match was a sellout and despite the presence of players like Juan Sebastian Veron, Ryan Giggs and Ruud van Nistelrooy, there was no doubting that most of the 11,000 paying punters had come mainly to see Keane.
		However, if his reception at Tolka Park is anything to go by, it seems most Irish football fans would relish the chance to see him lead the team out at Lansdowne Road for next September's Euro 2004 qualifier against Switzerland.

		Having canvassed the opinion of all parties, it was decided that in the best interests of Dublin City FC, basing ourselves out of Tolka Park in our natural fan base area was the correct thing to do.
		In light of determining this position, I relayed the decision to the relevant parties and informed them that this decision was based purely on footballing and not financial reasons.
		The request to locate was considered but with much of our logistical pre-season work already underway and the mindset of the players focussed on Tolka Park as our home venue, the decision to operate out of Tolka Park was arrived at in a considered and measured way.
