FAI to "support" Shamrock Rovers court case: Website

The Football Association of Ireland has pledged financial assistance for the Shamrock Rovers High Court case involving Tallaght GAA club Thomas Davis, according to the soccer club's website.

The Thomas Davis Club is seeking a Judicial Review of the South Dublin County Council decision last February to proceed with the completion of the Stadium in Tallaght as a football only facility.

According to the report, FAI Chief Executive, John Delaney, is quoted as saying:

“This week, the Board of the Association pledged significant funds to [Shamrock Rovers] in order to aid them in the most practical manner as they continue to pursue the goal of completion of Tallaght. These funds will be offset against the legal fees Rovers face as the High Court case continues. Obviously, we wish the club every success in this matter.”

On 14th December, the High Court determined that the hearing of the case would take place on March 16th next.
