Trivela Group, Drogheda United's owners, have confirmed that they will make up the budget shortfall, in excess of €500,000, after the club was kicked out of European competition this season in relation to multi-club regulations.

Co-chairman Ben Boycott has issued an open letter to all involved with the club, following Monday's decision by the Court of Arbitration for Sport's decision to reject the club's appeal against their expulsion from this year's Conference League.
