Irish FA chief calls for action over delayed stadium funding

Irish FA chief executive Patrick Nelson has called for "more action" on the delayed sub-regional stadia funding programme.

The NI Executive allocated £36m back in 2015, with £10m earmarked for the redevelopment of Glentoran's Oval stadium.

A second strand of £17m was allocated for other Irish Premiership clubs who could host fixtures with a 5,000 capacity, while Championship clubs were set to receive a total of £3m.
