View Full Version : Rovers stadium deal falls apart
Seeing as Rovers have a 250 year lease on the property, they can still more or less call the shots as regards tenency of the ground.They are still in a decent enough position as regards a pay off from any prospective developer.
Except previous boards have basically hived off parts of the land from Rovers. SDCC learnt nothing about Rovers past and let them. Basically most of the €11 million investment will be to buy back the land given to SRFC!

The attitude of South Dublin Council is ridiculous. Every night on the news we see Dublin residents/councillors complaining about lack of leisure facilities for young people in places like Tallaght but when a chance appears to do something practical like giving Rovers a hand to finish the stadium they run a mile. They're not even being asked to give money, just extend planning permission.
Don't be surprised if some housing developer has his eye on the stadium to buy the land on the cheap to make another couple of million
The thing is - we've already given the land to property developers! That's what SDCC are ****ed off about. They still want Rovers in Tallaght, they just want rid of the muppets running our club. Rovers have made a monumental balls up of the entire Tallaght project. The Council are still determined to get Rovers in, but it's not going to happen until two things are removed from the agenda: our board and the property developers. The Council are working on one, we're working on the other. This is far from over.
