Longford GAA is facing a €300,000 bill to carry out essential repair work at Glennon Brothers Pearse Park.
About 600 seats are currently cordoned off for health and safety reasons after an engineer's report found that two of the stands have been damaged by structural subsidence.
Longford officials have sought an urgent meeting with the GAA's Infrastructure Committee to seek advice on what course of action to take. The current capacity of the county grounds is just 8,000.
County secretary Peter O'Reilly told the Longford Leader this week: "There is a job to be done and what way we got about addressing it will depend on the finance available.
"Collins Boyd Engineers compiled a report on our behalf and there is a few ways of looking at it. At the end of the day, we'll be governed by or will follow the lead that Croke Park give us because they have the expertise.
"And they will tell us 'our engineer says this is fixable, do x, y and z and go out and get the costings. Or no, get in a bulldozer and dig it out of there."
