The revised new Casement Park plans have met with stiff opposition from a local residents association.

Ulster GAA unveiled its proposed designs for the new provincial stadium this week to members of the public at West Belfast's Conway Mill and outlined its process to seek the views of all interested parties. 

Mooreland and Owenvarragh Residents' Association have voiced their opposition in a statement posted on their Facebook page...

Ulster GAA last night issued the following statement in response: "Over the last four days we have had very positive engagement and feedback with the public and a wide range of stakeholders regarding our proposals for a provincial stadium at Casement Park.

"Our proposed design reduces height, scale, and capacity, with the stadium envelope being further restricted.

"We are therefore very disappointed with MORA's response but encouraged by the significant positive feedback we have received from the community including many local residents.

"We look forward to consulting with MORA as well as all stakeholders across West Belfast, Belfast and throughout Ulster during Stage Two of our consultation."
