Do you believe every lie on the Rovers MB. Bohs bought Dalymount 105 years ago all by oursleves, actually before the FAI were ever a thought. The FAI came to buy Dalymount many years ago but pulled out as typical FAI they had not got the money in the end.Quote:

A developer would not pay more money for Dalymount than it is worth. They ask architects to produce a report on a plot of land with the number of units that can be build. They also know how much profit can be mad from each unit.
Inner city development sites are getting rare now & Phibsboro is withn walking distance of the city. Phibsboro can be a bit of a traffic black spot but once you get past that its fine.
Like someone said its a few 100% higher than the previous offer. Doesn't seem right to me. Perhaps there is a hidden agenda?Quote:

Good article in the main section of the Indo today. Says the developer is basically speculation that the zoning of Dalymount will change when the City development plan ends in 2011. Suggested they would get 450 apartments which just goes to show the massive profits pe unit. Also suggested that a good deal all round & fair market price.
And an absolutely rotten, cliché-ridden memory lane article, that succeeds in not mentioning a single piece of the club's history.Quote:

Kudos Ger for even being able to open this thread and make a coherent sentence, if I were a Bohs fan i'd be sobbing uncontrollably and rocking back and forth at the mere thought of the topic.

Anyone for a bit of bar work. I hear players make very good barmen.
Series of fairly pointless digs, isn't it?
Yes.
But I can't tell whether you're commenting on reviving this thread or the site in general.
A lock is probably in order here.
I'm not particularly sure whether you're referring to this thread, or foot.ie as a whole?Quote:
