Hoops down and out

[NY Hoop]

Wreck what exactly? Think your laziness as a club to look after the ground has done enough damage

If it's about pints in Ballybofey than it's definitely Rovers related.

And if you tune in to Garda Patrol tommorrow at six you will se most of the Rovers Fans get a mention.

Even in victory your bitter Derek.

At least i now what you look like now.

I cant believe maynard didnt thank me in his notes. I was disgusted. I knew we were doomed after that.

Still we are the biggest name in irish sport as has been proved the last week or so.

Down but not out, people are taking of our "demise" so that thet can convince themselves of it. We'll be back.

In Your Dreams. If at any time in the future(distant distant future) the club sell the ground they will ensure that they have built a new one to move into first

look its not going to happen no matter how hard you wish for it

He never mentioned selling the entire ground, he referred to the ground being a single sided one! ie the Jodi & nothing else! Thats what happens when the remaining parts of the ground are condemned, or alternatively sold off to the highest bidder, all to fund mistakes of the past or delusions of grandeur!!

Time will tell what Bohs do to 'The Home of Irish Football', either way i'm genuinely saddened by its state of delapidation, i have alot of fantastic memories from that ground!!

I dont know where all this is coming from am i missing something
i didn't know that dalymount was always seated on three sides
i was under the impression that the club put a few thousand seats in about three years ago must have imagined going to games when there was only terracing on the connaught st side and I could of sworn i used to stand in the shed as for that big wooden firetrap that used to be were the jodi is well I must have dreamt that
as for the plans to cover the connaght st side yeah spend big money to put a roof on and then sell it to developers great bit of buisness that ..............you're not part of the old rovers board by any chance

100% agree DVB (theres a first ). I think dalymount is delapidated. Ok the jodi isnt bad but the rest is chronic. Sure most of the time it is a one sided ground anyway. And to think a couple of years ago some bohs fans tried to convience me it was the best staduim in the country.

BGR im just stating whats happening, im not bitter enought to want it to go its just it seems that every time Bohs need money (Which seems to be a lot these days) they sell another part of the ground.

Strabane Harp and BGR bohs fans are mainly in control of what happens to Dalymount we werent with Milltown.

care to elaborate
from http://www.dalymounttrust.org/dalymount.htm
Part of the Shopping Centre end was sold in the 90’s to allow the club to redevelop the old Main Stand, and a planning application is currently under review for a major redevelopment of the Phibsboro Shopping Centre, which will include a new stand behind that goal with Corporate facilities and seats for up to as many as 1500 spectators.




Your Heritage, Your Future!

Bohs have their problems and their debts but I wouldn't swap positions with Rovers any day of the week.

The fact of the matter is that Dalymount still belongs to Bohemians and generates massive amounts of money (in EL terms) for Bohemians. Far more money in fact than your shiney municipal stadium will on your 40 designated days a year.

Plus Bohs only really have made one land sale of significance in 1998. It is true that there was a second land sale but, the area of land was about the size of the box-room in somebodies house that Rovers are currently being run out of.

Bohemians can pay their debts if they want - we just have to face up to the kind of shriveled-up existance that Rovers are going to have to go through for the next 5-10 years. Except that Bohs wouldn't have to wait as long to get through the tough times, 3-5 years I'd say.

Looking at it from a business point of view I would have to back Bohemians to survive their current problems more than I would Rovers to survive theirs. Bohemians have assets that are worth something in the real world but Rovers at the moment only have their pretty worthless (except to them) brand name. I know Rovers fans want to deflect attention away from the rather catastophic "relegation and move to Santry" scenario and it's good to keep your spirits up but don't expect the rest of us to believe the bluster.
