Jaysus Joe, he could have poisoned that chap in London last week and I quite frankly wouldn't give a rats ass provided he throws all his roubles/zlots/whatever at Limerick
I don't think Danny Drew is a reliable source of factual information. The fact that no other source whatsoever has been quoted besides Drew would suggest to me that its more of the same; feeding the press a story to get a message across to a specific audience. As I said before, should I be proved wrong I'll hold my hands up straight away.Quote:

Dont know where you get your 'facts' from but they're not a very reliable source. The story was given to the Sun by Bernard O'Neill, who gets spoonfed all his stories concerning Limerick from Danny Drew. I work in a press agency and no mention of this has gone through any Polish media at all. It's a total fabriction by a failure who needs publicity to make him look good when he decides he's had enough and ****s off....Quote:

Don't think so...actually, I know so !! Fancy a wager on it?Quote:

Maybe he did get shafted, but I'd say that's because Joe Young hates him and the FAI think he's a walking joke.Quote:

There is a piece in the Irish Mirror today about this so-called 'Polish takeover'. In an interview Danny Drew said that he is friends with Jan Kulczyk's nephew and he is interested in investing in Irish football. Drew said negotiations are at a 'positive stage' and that Kulczyk plans to invest 1million euro over three years into the club. The article also says that there is the possibilty that the club will be renamed Limerick Polska, but that it is not a demand by the Kulczyks for their investment.
Drew also said that he hopes to have something sorted out with the ground situation this weekend. It seems that Hogan Park won't be Limerick's home from next year and that Drew is trying to broker a deal with the LDMC for Jackman Park, or the Desmond League for the ground in Askeaton. If he can get a 25 year lease on either ground then re-development work would begin in time for next season.
Drew has also said that Alan Reynolds is his number one choice for manager but nothing is definite yet as he has a year to run on his contract with Waterford, and obviously that would have to be bought out if he was to become manager.
Once again the source remains Danny Drew and Drew alone.Quote:

please explain what dose not make sense to you.Quote:

No, you're not!Quote:

Cos at least one year, if not two, will be spent playing in the First Division graveyard. Even at premier division level, look at the money we would have to spend just to compete. The million that this guy is supposedly offering won't even pay for the huge ground development required at said prospective venues. None of it makes sense and it all sounds like complete and utter bull to me. Unless our Polish friend is looking to launder money......
Would this really bother anyone?? I mean REALLY?? :)Quote:
