That's terrible, dire financial problems always seem to be plaguing LOI clubs.

Aren't Shelbourne another club that came from the south and lost their ground, now they're in the north?
I saw the memorial where Rovers' ground used to be, what a disgrace for the then owners to be allowed to sell the place and leave the club without a home for about 20 years!

shelbourne used to play in a part of dublin called ringsend/irishtown. its closish to lansdowne road. no y they leftt there but now they play in tolka park which they own. a few years ago rovers also played there. theres a very good book from a few years ago on irish football and how it got to where it is now if you wanted somthing to read. who stole our game, the fall and fall of irish soccer by daire whelan. gives a good history of the league back in the 50s and 60s and how popular it was back then
