I am being serious, I didn't know there was a court case pending. So could your deal with these developers fall flat on it's face? If so what sort of reprucussions will the club face? Are they depending on this money?Quote:

If they have to give the money back, they've still to cut back, but will also have to give the money back. They're also getting fairly large bank loans at present (drew down E750k last year), and these are presumably being repaid from the advances. An advance on an advance if you like. Probably not the soundest arrangement!
Obviously if they win, it's happy days, it seems.
As far as I recall the advances were non refundable.
Even if Bohs don't have to pay back the previous advances from the deal they still have to come to some arrangment to sell Dalymount in order to meet the interest on the loans they now have ?
I thought that was the original idea for selling in the first place, i.e they couldn't keep their heads above water.
In the current climate who in their right mind would give them the sort of deal they have at present. I'd imagine some form of meeting in the middle will happen. Could be a very expensive mistake to sell the same piece of land twice!
What date is the court case ?
Court case may decide that the agreement to make the advances non-refundable was null and void though. (And I use "may" to cover my lack of detailed knowledge of legal things).Quote:

Rovers stadium coming on nicely, roof and lights on main stand just about finished.
Main stand will hold 3200 and temporary terrace in ground for 2500, happy days!!
Is that confirmed?Quote:

Is it me or does it look like the roof will leave an awful lot of the seating open to the elements???
looks like its gonna be a hell of a place, are Shamrock building a stand the other side/behind the goal, or is it just terrace?
The stadium really does look fantastic.
The only thing left for the people of Tallaght is to find an excuse to not go. :D
Is it the same size of Athlones stand? Also, people saying the roof on it is too short, i dunno if it is but if so which way is it facing? Just thinking about the Donie Forde stand in Turners Cross having a short roof to let sunlight get to the pitch during the day.
It seems to be a small bit longer from that picture. Ours has a half roof as well to allow sunlight get to the pitch.
It is bigger than Athlone Towns'.
Athlone's stand holds 2,000 AFAIK.
This stand holds 3,000.
Main Stand is facing to the east. Had a good look at it this morning and looking from the side the roof covers about 60% of the seating area.Quote:

Tallaght Stadium will be fully Uefa compliant.Quote:

hate to admit it, but this will be the most beautiful stadium of any eh "code" in Ireland when finished. Looks like the kind of class stadia you see in Switzerland and Austria. The flats behind it just add to the atmosphere.Quote:

Insane and facists. Have they paid up yet?
Tallaght Stadium looking brill I must say.
Kildare County have a new stand in place, looking well I think, about 500 seats in it I would guess.

Agree Tallaght looks fantastic. I'm sure this has been posted before but can anyone summarise for me the full plan for the ground and timeline. Are plans in place for the other three sides? Great memories of listening out with my Dad for the hoops european scores years ago.............
Thats great. Thats gone up fairly fast. Any photo's?Quote:

They got that story from the Irish Times today.
There is way more to it than that, as the owner will be lobbying the FAI & Government for grants. He is not as rich as people may think and he wouldn't be able to fund this developement.
With the current Irish financial crisis and government tightening their belts and FAI facing a deadline for payments over Landsdown I can't see this deal going through for a long time to be honest.
What's happening with Drogheda United's stadium. It's a big story that has gone cold.
Is it on, off or what?
