2 years? They are talking about doing up puc since the 80s. The FAI aren't building anything. This is an overreaction

Tallaght might have meandered on for years but not in the way you suggest.

When the council finally got control of the stadium, phase one was completed in less than a year, a second stand followed a few months later, and a third will be built soon enough.

A real kick in the teeth for the whole thing.

5k target has been surpassed,a great bit of fundraising for a great little kid! Massive donations from the bohs family as expected but a big well done to the hoops fans who handed over a nice amount too,well done folks some things trancend petty rivalries,merry christmas to you all!

Any of you that go to Dalymount regularly would probably be familiar with Cillian Kenny, the little lad with the walking frame who's always up at the barriers in the Jodi roaring his heart out. I don't know this lad's family personally but as they're part of the Bohs family we'd often say hello as we pass up at Dalyer. Seeing this little fella's passion and support for the team and how he doesn't let his many challenges take the smile off his face is really inspirational. It's also been heartwarming to see him progress over the last couple of years with the help of this fund but the next couple of years will be vital to his development. I know there's lots of worthy charities to donate to, especially at this time of year, but if anyone wasn't sure where to send their Christmas donations then trust me, this is a really brilliant cause for a really brilliant kid. Even if people can't donate, if they could share this on Facebook / Twitter it could make a big difference to his future. Thanks and Happy Christmas.

Sorry but it's an awful statement. Bohs have admitted a child abuser worked for them, admitted they didn't catch him and are denying Roddy told them. While any club can find itself in this situation the reaction is key, and Bohs reaction could be construed as a cover up. Add your striker into the mix and this statement invites more questions than it answers.
