    Because I couldnt give a f**k to be honest. If people want to kick lumps out of each other thats fine by me once they dont go near innocent people - the bigger battering they give each other the better as far as im concerned

    Quiz time - Is this a) typical gypo delusion or b) a pathetic attempt at face-saving?

    The reason why Hoopy's post about us moving to Tolka was rubbished originally was that Bohs were still trying to get us into Dalymount right up to the last minute. As Hoopy said, the deal was done but Bohs wanted to come back with one more offer. Hence the lack of an announcement to back up Hoopy's post, even though we all knew that Tolka was a done deal.

    Bohs even rang Ollie to complain about the Tolka deal. Ollie, quite rightly, asked them WTF it had to do with Bohs and then told them to do one. €50,000 hole in the Bohs budget, oh dear, oh dear.

    Can I just ask a question - Santry was proposed on the basis of cheaper rent and pitch side advertising. What's the deal with tolka - are you going to allowed hang your own advertising, which I think Dublin City did (i.e. like a banner tied over the existing advertising?)

    They had that deal at Richmond (limited to a few I think) but nobody from Rovers bothered to do it... Presume the new board will be different.

    That doesnt suprise me one bit, the incompetence of the old board was beyond belief, as you say Dodge i cant imagine the current board repeating the offence!
    I havent heard the full details of the Tolka arrangement beyond the fee involved, no doubt more details will be revealed at the clubs agm on the 16th Jan though!
    As the Santry deal was excellent in relation to advertising i cant imagine a situation were some arrangement hasnt been agreed in relation to Rovers being able to gain some sponsorship through ground advertising in Tolka! Though without the facts at the moment its all speculation!

    On thing i do remember about the last time you played your home games @ tolka was a few Woodie's sign's around the ground, and as far as i'm aware we have never had a sponsorship with woodies and they wern't up at our home games so i'm gonna assume it will be summit similier

    Without compromising anyone (but answering deluded gypo and Macy's question) - Santry was going to cost X, last season Dalymount cost X by 2. This year both Shels and Bohs offered their grounds for X + €500. In other words Bohs nearly halved their price and Shels also came way down in price. The decision became very simple after that.

    And yes, we will have perimeter advertising which, as Dodge pointed out, Pats offered us before but the useless cnuts running Rovers didn't bother with. Also Bohs offered perimeter advertising last season but when it came to the crunch there were far too many obstacles put in our way - surprise, surprise.

    If anyone refuses to believe this that's entirely their perogative.

    So, doing the maths, 17 home games last year (not counting Cup or League Cup) = roughly €3000 a game

    Therefore X = €1500

    So both Tolka and Dalymount were on offer for €2000 a game. Do I win a Crackerjack pencil?
