They were not paying their VAT - €27k owed plus €25k in added penalties and interest.http://www.revenue.ie/en/press/defaulters/defaulters-list2-march2013.pdf PS I see the hoarding around the new unit on Abbey Street is down - 1320m2. A big space. They have some advertising hoardings in the window so the Dealz tenancy has indeed clearly gone south.

Also sometimes regional thread seem to get very clickish. It's fine for someone with many posts to say something negative about the town but when someone new says it it is not acceptable. This is not exact opening new members with open arms in the community spirit that Boards.ie is meant to be all about. Hence why it took until now for me to come out of my shell. All down to Sully:D

At 15 years of age I got the chance to play Ken Doherty and Jimmy White and some other local great snooker players. It was the place to be and kept me out of trouble (most of the time) A mate of mine went down for a game of snooker last week and the place is a wreck. Only a hand full of tables left,holes in the walls from people punching snooker cues through them. One table had a big bag of rubbish tipped all over it while another one was occupied by a bunch of 15/16 year olds who were constantly passing around joints of weed. Anybody for a game???
