    Eddie Van Boxtel

    Four in court over €10m drug haul
    Thursday, 7 February 2008 22:32

    Four men have appeared in Naas court charged in connection with the seizure of more than €10m worth of cannabis in Co Kildare yesterday.

    All four are aged between 33 and 45 and were charged with two offences, possession of drugs and possession with intent to supply.

    Three of the men made no application for bail and were remanded in custody.

    The three men are 25-year-old Fran Delaney from Melrose Park in Kinsealy, 45-year-old Martin O' Connor from North Great Charles Street and 33-year-old Eddie van Boxtel from Sillogue Avenue in Ballymun.
    I believe the age is incorrect but it is the former eL player & personality. Sad & shocking news.

    ..according to playerhistory.com.

    But they have been known to have had players' DOBs wrong in the past.

    Personally I don't think it's that sad. That amount of drugs destroying lives is sad but the more drug dealers / importers that are caught the better.

    I think it's sad though that a LOI personality has had to turn to that life.

    Sad, if he's guilty; the last I had heard of him he was a 'community worker' (a euphemism more often used north of the border) in Ballymun. He won a league title with us in 94/95.

    Sharks are as tough as those football fans who take their shirts off during games in England in January, only more intelligent.

    He was part of an all conquering Home Farm Team that went something like 7 years unbeaten at under age Level I think Gary Kelly was also on that team.

    In fairness, it's not necessarily the same guy. There must be dozens of Eddie Van Boxtels in Ballymun.

    The jokes about him being Pats keeper coach just too obvious.
