Rovers make official complaint to FAI about Bohs spending practices

[HulaHoop]

Really have to laugh at Bohs fans in this thread pretending everything is rosy in their accounts. It's especially funny as this is what one of the members posted on their own message board after their AGM last April.

Most disappointed at the moment when there was a general acceptance from all present that we had worked the accounts to appear favourable to us rather than to completely accurately portray our financial situation.

It was put to the AGM, by a member from the floor that we could

A) Reject the accounts. Go back, redo them properly. But this would cause use to breach wage protocol. This would mean forefitting the title and incur a possible fine and points deduction.
We would have an accurate set of accounts but would have to be held accountable for our dealings up to that point as a result

or we could

B) Pass the accounts. Keep the trophies and dolly accounts up to look favourable to us even when, in reality, they are not. But sure every other team in the league does it so we might as well do it to.

Option B was the clear winner. Sad day for me seeing the Bohs membership vote heavily in favour or not running our club on the straight and narrow.

We had the chance to hold the people who formulated the the plans for spending etc.. that led to these losses and less than spectacular set of accounts but we turned down the opportunity all for two pieces of silver

1: auditors aren't looking at things like the 65% wagecap, and besides, signed the Bohs accounts off with reservations - it wasn't a full clean bill.


2: LukO most certainly did not explain this in the detail required. He is the one Bozo who made an effort, thts true, but I ain't buying €4k a week on training facilities or €9k per schoolkids team per year on kit.

I know Bohs fans have a proud tradition of victimhood and hysterics, but you have covered yourselves in glory here.

Catch yourself on will you if you think the fans of any other clubs 'covered themselves in glory'. This thread should be locked until the FAIs decision is made because there is literally nothing more to say on the matter, any time a Bohs fan tried to explain anything they were dismissed, Rovers fans in a bizarre move likened the situation to the ndo case and half the posts are getting deleted at this stage.

He never claimed they did.
