Cork City denied a licence; club to be wound up; FORAS to enter First Division

[SMorgan]

He may agree to take a payment schedule I don't know but from what I've heard he's not going to waive his entitlement to the money if it's proven that he is entitled. Given Tom's track record I know where my money would be going in that case. Tom should have thought of that before he sacked him in fairness.

Why on earth should he? Of course its going to end up in the Courts.

Taken from rovers forum and is spot on;

I still cant believe how Coughlan and the Langers believe they will pay by wednesday and its happy days from there on in!!!

They will have used next years prize money and sponsorship by next week and are still struggling to pay wages.

As for FORAS they should hang their heads this morning!!! All this bull**** about "wanting the best for their club but Coughlan wont budge" ****e really dont wash anymore!! YOU SHOULD HAVE WENT TO COURT AND STOOD WITH THE REVENUE WHEN THEY LOOKED FOR THE WINDING UP ORDER!!!!!

THe FAI beggar belief, letting a team use income, prizemoney and sponsorship from the future is a shambles. I also think that Cork will be allowed use the above mentioned funds in next years budget to make everything look "fine and dandy".

Should Cork make it to the end of the season they should be relegated immediately as they will have no prizemoney to live off, no sponsorship to live off and will have another tax/wage bill left unpaid. NO CHANCE OF A LICENSE!!!!

obviously walking away from tax and all other liabilities would be a much better idea right ? As for relegation, how quickly you forget that rovers were NOT relegated for running the club into the ground were NOT relegated for false licence application or for having no money to live off, As usual the only things rovers have in abundance is arrogance and hypocracy

[redgav]

i hope not,
the man was shafted and deserves every penny he can get out of them.

Shafted- Is that Waterford speak for "engineered a move" ???

[longfordjames]

Go on away and jump. I have huge respect for Rovers fans and what they did, but the cheek of you to criticise us for wanting the company to survive and to save 40odd jobs. When we take over, which we will, we will ebar the brunt of this for years to come, and we are happy to do so.

We could have taken the easy way out and supported winding the company up, cleared the debts and started again, but what about the players? What about the staff? Do these people who have shown immense loyalty to our club and to us as fans deserve nothing in return?

We want to take over our club, but that doesn't mean we'll stamp all over people on our way there. We will our club, sooner rather than later, but when we do we want to be sure we did it in the right way. We did everything we could to stand by those screwed over in this process and last year and we can hold our heads high.

If it comes to it that we're wound up anyway at some stage before we can do this then we can run the club then, but until that day comes, we will do everything possible to stand by those and help those who have stood by CCFC.

City fans (outside the club shop in town) get the good news before the game.

Oh dear...

'What's the actual news?'

'I don't know, who cares.'

Mongs.

Yeah, imagine people who just found out their club has not been wound up, after being told hours early it was, aren't too bothered at that exact moment about the finer details.....

Or... they didn't know what they were celebrating.

Eh...no.

I was there. What they didnt know was how, since it seemed impossible til then.

[Longfordian]

I'm not trying to have a go here, believe me but it seems to me that a lot of those 40 people are going have to either take huge cuts or find new work in any event if the club is to survive. TC is after borrowing over 200k from a company in London that nobody seems to know about and who are prepared to pay out the cash in a couple of days on spec of it coming in from the Celtic game, no doubt charging a large interest rate. You need rid of him asap and he doesn't seem to be going anywhere.

I saw in the star today that Dermot Desmond had a big role in the extra money being pumped in...

Lookk through the rest of his youtube videos couldnt bother makin a link.

[Schumi]

How much is that again? Its only low tens of thousands I thought?

Was 15k mentioned as what the FAI are putting in?

[redgav]

Yeah i was actually cringing watching that video. Beyond embarrassing stuff.

imagine that ,supporters of a club that was dead a hour previously suddenly find out that there was a 13th hour reprieve and they have the cheek to celebrate it ....the *******S
