What we know so far: -City Council have long advocated for groundshare as solution. -According to a city official, deal on Dalymount contingent on getting lease on Tolka, so value can be recouped. -Intent is for deal to “save” both clubs from their current issues but their debts will have to be dealt with by their respective boards.
