History

The club originally hail from the inner-Dublin suburb of Ringsend. The name of the club derives from Shamrock Avenue in Ringsend, where the first club rooms were secured.

Up until the 1970s, Shamrock Rovers were well supported, attracting over 20,000 people regularly to Glenmalure Park and up to 30,000 for cup finals and European matches at Dalymount Park. Ultimately a combination of poor results, the competition from televised football from abroad and other attractions meant that by the late 1980s the club's crowds averaged between 400 and 1,500.^[1] Dalymount Park is a football stadium situated in north Dublin. ...

In 1987, the club's home ground was sold by the then owners, the Kilcoyne family. It was subsequently demolished and developed for housing. Supporters waged a long and acrimonious but futile campaign to save the ground. Home games were boycotted by fans, ultimately forcing out the Kilcoynes as owners. The club has been without a home from that time until the present. The most stable period since was while playing at the Royal Dublin Society's grounds in Ballsbridge, Dublin between 1990 and 1996. During this time, Rovers won a league trophy (in 1994) and attracted reasonable crowds. The club chairman, John McNamara, sold out his interest in 1996 to a new consortium who, within a few months, announced plans to bring Rovers to a new stadium in Tallaght on Dublin's south-side. Since then the club have been trying to develop this stadium in Tallaght and have played their home matches at several venues all over the city including Tolka Park, Richmond Park and the athletics venue at Morton Stadium in Santry. Their current 'home' ground is Tolka Park.

Shamrock Rovers experienced severe financial troubles during the 2005 season, due to overspending and an accumulation of massive debts and spent a period under examinership (a form of financial administration).

Colours and badge

Shamrock Rovers kit is green and white hoops after Belfast Celtic donated a set of hooped jerseys.^{[citation needed]} The first game with the new hooped jerseys was against Bray in a cup match in September 1926. 2007 sees the first season where the hoops are not continuous around the jersey. This is due to a FIFA regulation which states that clubs with hooped or striped jerseys must have the player's number on a square of plain colour.^{[citation needed]} Belfast Celtic Badge Belfast Celtic football club was founded in 1891 and was one of the most successful teams in Irish football until sectarian violence forced them to withdraw from the league in 1949. ...

Tallaght Community Stadium

In the 1990s Shamrock Rovers were granted land in the Dublin suburb of Tallaght to build a new stadium. On Thursday 30 March, 2000, An Taoiseach, Bertie Ahern turned the sod at the site. However, work on the stadium ceased in 2001 and in March, 2005 South Dublin County Council announced that they were taking back the land that they had granted to the club, as the conditions of the planning permission had not been met. A public consultation process was initiated in July 2005 and a resolution was passed in December 2005 to alter the stadium to accommodate senior GAA games while still having Shamrock Rovers as the preferred tenants. This decision was subject to additional government funding. This funding was not made available and on 13 January 2006 the council voted to proceed with the original plan.

This second vote was challenged by a local Gaelic Athletic Association club, Thomas Davis who wanted the 13 January 2006 vote declared illegal thus forcing the county council to build the GAA stadium. Thomas Davis claim that the capacity of the stadium (initially 6,000, ultimately 10,000) would not be affected by the change, the other parties involved disputed this and argued that the capacity would be reduced.^[3].

Thomas Davis GAA club instituted judicial review proceedings in the High Court in May 2006. Their main argument was that the decision of the council on 13 February, 2006 to revert to the original plans for the stadium, which did not include a senior GAA pitch, was unlawful.^[5] Their submission on the technical point was accompanied by cultural arguments that 'the youth of Tallaght will be restricted to a diet of Association football' and that a soccer-only ground would place the 'applicant at a severe disadvantage in attracting the youth of Tallaght to the club, the sport and the GAA culture^[6]'. However the stadium, with the original design, could accommodate junior GAA games as the pitch used at this level fits within the stadium's dimensions.

The GAA can't be facilitated in the stadium – it is as simple as that. I don’t know why they are persisting with it. They are simply holding up Shamrock Rovers from moving in, that’s all that will come of any action. It can go to a hearing but there will be no climbdown by the Government. It is proposed to be the new home stadium for Shamrock Rovers and will have a capacity for 6,000 spectators. The stadium would need to be redesigned to accommodate Gaelic games. The GAA have their own site in Rathcoole and there are 24 acres there that are to be developed and I have said that I would help them with that but that’s not enough for them.^[10]

Shamrock Rovers Ownership

The Shamrock Rovers Members Club was originally formed as the 400 Club in 2002, whereby supporters donate a fixed amount of money each month to help finance the football club. The monthly amount is €50. Initially the 400 Club was intended to secure a mortgage for the construction of the Tallaght Stadium. However, it later developed into an independent supporters association that ended up taking over the club in 2005. The 400 Club played a crucial part in paying for Rovers' recent progress through Examinership. They paid off a portion of the club's debts and then assumed responsibility for the running of the football club. The members club has a Board of Directors known as Trustees. The Board is elected once a year. Each person who donates has one vote in relation to this Board. After the Examinership period, the Board of Trustees also became the Board of Directors of Shamrock Rovers Football Club. At the 2006 annual general meeting of the 400 Club there was a vote to rename the club as the SRFC Members Club. At the 2008 AGM the monthly subscription was increased to €50 per month which is the first increase since the formation of the club. Currently, there are approximately 490 members. Membership is open to all supporters of Shamrock Rovers. This article is about the legal mechanism used to secure property in favor of a creditor. ...
