Bohemians confirm Dalymount stay into 2025 as RDS emerges as potential temporary home
BOHEMIANS have confirmed that they will be playing in Dalymount Park for at least part of next season. But the delay to the start of the ground's Advertisement 3 Bohemian FC President Matt Devaney was speaking at the launch of Bohemian Football Club Social Impact Report at the Mansion House in Dublin Credit: Bohemians FC 3 Bohemians have confirmed that thet will remain at Dalymount Park next season after redevelopment delays 3 The LOI side may use Leinster Rugby's home as an occasional base in 2026 This was due to be their last year in their home since 1901 ahead of a redevelopment into a modern venue with a capacity of 8,034. It currently holds 4,500. However, it has become clear that the project has not advanced sufficiently in order for Bohs to need to vacate at the end of this season. President Matt Devaney said: 'When the funding was announced, the talk was that this would be our last season in Dalymount. 'I think it's evident that's not the case now, we are still hoping for next year. We always had the belief that we'd want to go at the end of the season but now, just to get it done, if it happens early or mid season, we can try and get that done.'

Devaney said: 'The RDS for week-in, week-out might not be feasible but it could be something that we could look at for bigger fixtures.' The nearby Energia Park in Donnybrook holds 6,000 and has an artificial surface with Richmond Park - where the capacity is 5,340 - the most likely football option. Advertisement Most read in Football Devaney said: 'You've seen what we've done with the Aviva with the Rovers game. "I'm not suggesting we can play a number of games at the Aviva but there's obviously bigger stadia in the city that maybe you could do a Pat's or Shels game on a sporadic basis so you mightn't have the one home venue for all of the games.' Up 70k Man United and Spurs fans begin flooding Bilbao soaking up sun & cervezas ahead of Europa League final Devaney said the delays in the Dalymount project were not because of any loss of political support but because of the usual delays with funding coming from both central government and the ground owners, Dublin City Council. Devaney was speaking at the launch of a report into the club's social impact, conducted by Whitebarn Consulting, at Dublin's Mansion House. Advertisement It estimated that from an investment of more than €20million - some of which included putting a value on the work done by volunteers - between 2018 and 2023, the club had generated 'a ballpark total social value of at least €51m'. Devaney said: 'Anecdotally we always knew the work we did had value and had an impact. "What this report does is put pounds, shillings and pence on it, a monetary value and that validates the work that we do and helps us continue it. 'We didn't get into the tax take, PRSI and employees and the vendors we engage with. It's probably bigger. Advertisement 'That wasn't the primary reason for getting this report done, but it's landed at an opportune time. 'If you look at the revenue and the metrics for a football club in the north inner city is having, for a 4,000 seater stadium, this stadium will pay for itself in six or seven years. "It makes no sense for it not to get done.'

Nation of Language Reveal 2025 Tour, Share Sub Pop Debut 'Inept Apollo': Stream
The post Nation of Language Reveal 2025 Tour, Share Sub Pop Debut 'Inept Apollo': Stream appeared first on Consequence. Brooklyn indie pop trio Nation of Language have announced their signing to Sub Pop and released their debut single on the label, 'Inept Apollo.' What's more, the band has revealed an extensive headlining tour for 2025, set to cover North America, the UK, and Europe from August to late November. 'Inept Apollo' pairs bubbling synths with lead singer Ian Richard Devaney's airy vocals, creating a contrast with the inner turmoil expressed in its lyrics. 'Embraced and left alone/ How many miles ago?' he ponders. 'Unbreak the spell/ I remember how it was before.' Stream it below. Get Nation of Language Tickets Here Devaney elaborated on the song's themes in a statement: 'Work is a respite from pain. Whether it's a paying job or just the thing you pour yourself into, having a direction to move in, finding a flow state, it can move focus away from the heaviness of the heart. So, after life's losses, in moments of despair, we resolve time and time again to dive headfirst into the work as best we can. But the artistic process also tends to be when imposter syndrome rears its ugly head — when I find my inner monologue spiraling: 'this is the best coping mechanism I have at my disposal and I'm not even qualified to be doing it.' The new song is accompanied by a music video directed by John MacKay, which Devaney described as feeling like 'walking through an old warehouse in Brooklyn, full of practice spaces and studios, each room occupied by artists striving to express and understand themselves and their place in the world.' Watch the clip below. The newly announced headlining tour expands on previously teased dates in cities like Brooklyn and London. The North American leg kicks off on August 21st in Hamden, Connecticut, with subsequent stops planned for Chicago, Vancouver, Austin, Atlanta, and many other cities before concluding in Washington, DC on October 30th. Following the North American dates, Nation of Language will take their tour to the UK and Europe, wrapping up in late November. Tickets for the tour go on sale to the general public this Friday, May 16th at 10:00 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster and Nation of Language's official website. An artist pre-sale is ongoing. Ahead of the tour, Nation of Language are set to make festival appearances at Cruel World and Kilby Block Party, followed by a string of opening dates on Death Cab for Cutie's Plans 20th anniversary tour. Get tickets for those shows here. Nation of Language's most recent album, Strange Disciple, was released in 2023. Get your copy here.

Todd Devaney gunned down his ex in a Sydney gym. He's still ‘fixated' with her
He was refused parole in 2017 and 2019 due to his 'unacceptable risk to the community' and has been under community corrections supervision since his release in October 2020. In granting the state another extended supervision order (ESO) in the NSW Supreme Court last week, Justice Stephen Campbell said Devaney's 'ongoing fixation' with Graham was a matter of 'legitimate concern'. 'There is no doubt that while Mr Devaney was in custody … he at times, and probably as a manifestation of his disease, expressed ideas seeming to blame the victim for his offending,' Campbell said. 'At other times, he acknowledged his own responsibility, as he should have.' The judge noted Devaney was asked in recent cross-examination about his expressed desire to meet Graham for 'restorative justice'. He was also asked about two photos he kept of Graham on his phone. Restorative justice is a process that involves bringing together those affected by a crime to discuss the harm done and what needs to be done to resolve it. However, the court documents did not detail what Devaney meant or his understanding of the process. Campbell noted Devaney made these statements in 2021 and 2022 and had since denied interest in meeting Graham, but the 'probably slight' risk to Graham depended on compliance with his mental health treatment. Devaney was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia in jail, an illness which a psychiatrist traced back to his self-described 'paranormal, religious experience' while visiting the Egyptian pyramids in 2006. According to Campbell's decision, Devaney told prison authorities he faked his psychotic symptoms for 'legal reasons' and repeatedly stopped taking his prescribed medication, which caused him to violate prison rules and become hostile and threatening. 'This on-and-off pattern of treatment … continues to be a feature today where he, at times, continues to deny having a mental illness and assiduously attempts to persuade treating doctors and other medical personnel to reduce or eliminate his medication,' Campbell said. This was 'a matter of real concern' despite the 'very promising' compliance Devaney had shown with parole and supervision since his release. Noting a psychologist's opinion that Devaney's moderate to high risk of violence would rise without treatment, Campbell said 'future compliance with treatment is an ongoing significant issue'. Campbell was also concerned about 'ongoing evidence' of Devaney's 'continuing connection' with outlaw motorcycle gangs, as cross-examination evidence showed two photos of him with Nomads bikie members. But Campbell said Devaney had told the court the 'long-standing friendship' related to connections from 'a phase in his life through which he has now passed'. Devaney was subject to electronic ankle monitoring until his parole expired on November 2, 2021, but this condition was not imposed in the subsequent ESO. However, in the latest ESO hearing, the state applied for a condition permitting it to use electronic monitoring 'for as long as deemed reasonably necessary … if the defendant shows a renewed interest in contacting and/or visiting [Graham]'. Campbell rejected this application, stating Devaney had 'progressed very well under the previous ESO even without electronic monitoring as a condition'. The judge said Devaney's interest in contacting or visiting the victim 'seems to have receded since 2022' and 'there is no reasonably contemporaneous evidence suggesting it is still a factor'. Campbell said Devaney seemed to have since accepted that meeting Graham under 'restorative justice' was not appropriate, had not appeared to breach the previous ESO, and 'has made very significant progress in rehabilitation toward a pro-social life', adding he seemed to recently co-operate with the re-introduction of antipsychotic medication. Devaney's new ESO conditions include reporting and monitoring obligations, accommodation and travel restrictions, drug and alcohol testing, and non-association rules, along with internet and communication restrictions. He must undertake psychological or psychiatric assessment or counselling as directed by a departmental supervising officer and immediately notify them if he stops taking or declines to start prescribed medication. Devaney's 18-month ESO will start when his current order expires on April 26.
