Ye've sold the ground close on that many times, so it's much of a muchness really.
(Also - Bohs being in "a spot of bother for now" is the biggest understatement since the look-out on the Titanic asked if anyone wanted an ice cube for their drinks, cos there was one approaching)
Totaly agree. We need to get into Lusk as soon as possible(as a Rush man, I never thought id hear those words coming from my mouth). Santry has not been good for trying to grow a fan base from fingal. I think we may have a better chance out of santry (not guaranteed though). I think the plan is to try and at least get the pitch in place and some sort of stand. Money was released this year by the council for the project and it was to be started in November, but ill believe it when i see it. The stadium is not just for SF by the way and it was to be built regardless of SF going into it or not. The facility is for all sports in the area including football. Its only since the swords stadium has been put on the long finger that SF where now looking to go into the lusk project.
SPORTING FINGAL may need to cash in on captain Shaun Williams after completing a review of their financial position.
The north county Dublin outfit have confirmed that chief backer Gerry Gannon is reconsidering his involvement in the club three years into a planned five-year term. .........................

A transient, horrible, fantastic dream,
Wherein is nothing yet all things do seem:
From which we're wakened by a friendly nudge
Of our bedfellow Death, and cry: "O fudge!"

It would take a huge transfer fee for Williams to replace the cash Fingal got from Gannon and Keelings.
They got 750,000 from Gannon last year. How much from Keelings?
Is there any hope the the council will be able to foot the bill?
Looks like a sign that the current squad is being broken up.Glen Crowe, Gary O'Neill, Eamon Zayed and Colin Hawkins have already been told that their contracts will not be renewed.
Wouldn't be sorry to see Fingal go belly up -- all players are mercenaries, but this lot just take the biscuit because there is nothing to be loyal to.
There's already a sufficient number of clubs in Dublin, League needs some of the bigger clubs in the First Division not this vanity project, Sporting Barbie FC - no history, and hopefully no future.
Hopefully the man with the hat and ratepayers in Fingal call the plug on this one.

Any chance you can move the Bohs argument to another thread
Just a quick reply to the shells girls on here who cream themselves everytime there is a mention of Fingal and finances in the papers.
Dont get your hopes up just yet as Fingal will be stronger next year trust me as i know something you dontand you just concentrate on how to get that sad litle club of yours out of the first division .
