Their court hearing is going well according to posts on Drogs forum. Looks like they will survive.
I doubt anyone is celebrating yet. Fingers crossed for them thoughQuote:

Have the Revenue had their say yet? Can't imagine they're too happy with this continuing to happen in the current climate.
Revenue did not object. Very strange.
Yeah I thought the same. They must just not like us given that Drogs owed them more...Quote:

I'd assume have revenue have got the idea that clubs simply can't give them anymore. PLus it'll look bad to see Revenue actively wanting companies to close down...
Good news for Drogheda, lets hope they sort themselves out
Delighted for the Drogs, hopefully a harsh lesson learned!

Glad to hear you survied Drogs.
Hoey saying they are a premier division club for next year.
Presume that means they ahve sorted united Park or somewhere else to play?
Revenue adopted a neutral stance. Had to be pressed by the judge if they were objecting. They replied with one word - ...No.
Delighted for you,and for Vincent Hoey,regardless of what people think of the way things went,Vincent is a true fan who has pumped personal money in for years,i have had the fortune to know him through work for the last 7 years.Congratulations...Now for the premier licence and the return of the Louth derby!!!
were will you guys be playing next season?Quote:

How much of the 300k is hard cash in the bank and how much is based on 'pledges'?
How much is being paid out to creditors including the Revenue?
IIRC the playing are getting 90k now, with more to come further down the road? Have the players actually been paid the 90K now - or in the next couple of days before Jan 31st deadline?
What's the total amount of the write-off after all creditors' settlements are totted-up?
Have the Drogs Directors resigned yet?
All questioned will be answered in tomorrow's papers as the court preceedngs aren't in camera.
or at lest the details of previous clubs have been published (ROvers, Cork)
Get yourself down to the High Court central office and bespeak the file FintanQuote:

I think it's Hoey through a holding company. From memory, it's either him as a 100% shareholder or as a quasi-partnership with someone else. Fairly similar to Ollie as Shels.Quote:

It would.Quote:

I'm being serious - the answer to all the questions should be in the affidavits filed.
They're all public documents and anyone can bespeak them.
If you're that interested go get them instead of insinuating something isn't above board.
Congrats to Drogheda fans on the club coming our of examinership
Well done to Drogs. I guess will not apply for Premier licence at this stage? Hopefully the fans can get organised & takeover the running of the club from the current Directors. I feel ye need a fresh start without their baggage.
Sounds like they're intent on getting a Premier licence...Quote:

Hasn't Hoey come out and said after the decision they'll be a Premier Divison club?. No chance of them not applying for a Premier Licence.
Nobody has to listen to anybody else or read their postsQuote:

How do you bepeak those files / affidavits?Quote:

As a tax payer and a League of Ireland supporter you would have been better asking Oillie all these questions about your own club at the time, instead of being his mouth peace.Quote:

Regardless of the past - I'm asking these questions now.
A question for you - how is Drogheda going into examinership and then coming out of it, good for the league as a whole?
Peace to you too!
