I guess you know more about this issue than me John83. But would it not be a good idea for the FAI to hire an auditor to trawl over clubs books? As you said yourself its open to fraud and books can always be cooked to balance up. The sight of an external auditor showing up each season should be enough to keep most clubs on their toes and stop them from misbehaving?
Smith is an auditor (ex-KPMG or PWC or someone like that), and it's pretty much his job to spot this stuff. In theory, the end of year audit should be clean. I don't know how true that is in practice - regardless of anything else, auditors make mistakes.Originally Posted by sixesandsevens
I don't know what's required here to cut out the crap, but I'd love to see a couple of seasons go by without a club going boom.
Would anyone agree with my idea:
Instead of central contracting, why not just have every stadium to be in fully owned by the FAI? for the time being of course.
Why?

We're not arrogant, we're just better.
what use is that to clubs who have their act together and own their ground??

Because, then FAI can develop our bleedin run down grounds coz the clubs don't seem to priortise that.
Most grounds are still the same as years before, when supposedly incomes have rose.
Infrastructure is far,far more important than o.t.t. wages.
