Isn't it a matter for the guards to find the money and get it returned at this stage?

That's what I thought, I don't see the why they should hand over anything.Quote:

How much money was it?

In fairness Pete, if it's been on the Joe Duffy show what role the person held, we're only discussing something that's already well in the public domain.Quote:

In fairness, the club rep said that he intended recommending to the board the money will be paid back in full.
Christ the guy who took the money must be in a dire financial state to take the money from a bunch of kids.
The Bohs director responsible for the schoolboy set up walked out of their AGM (or a similar thing) because of their lack of action over the section. I understand the head coach resigned (or perhaps didn't have his contract renewed)
Wasn't that walkout more to do with the board consistently ignoring the schoolboys section rather than this individual incident though?Quote:

Were Bohs drinking last night and working this morning?
(I know I was...)
Have to agree with tiktok if the facts are as outlined. But then getting your information second hand from the Joe Duffy show isn't exactly the most reliable of sources.

Yeah, I meant about how things were generally, and thanks for clarifying the head coach thing. I know the director was very upset about it though
BTW I wasn't trying to point score and hope evrything works out for the kids
I assume this is a poor attempt at a wind up and/or you are journo looking for another crappy story about a LOI club.:rolleyes:Quote:

Further payments depending on what the gardai investigation uncovers my be made at a later date
