FAI cant deduct us points for a matter which has nothing to do with our results or position and thus could only fine or impose a ban on us!
If they can count it under wages, they could refuse you a license over it. I don't doubt Dundalk will be made pay here.Quote:

Plus, Dundalk lost the case fair and square, do they intend to ignore the court ruling?
yes they can. it cost us the premier division.Quote:

You do realise that this attitude of "We're not paying any bills until someone comes around with a baseball bat" is partly what has the league in the trouble it's in?Quote:

Absolutely, though I am not sure that this is relevent here.Quote:

To Dundalk fans: Has Dave not offered to take his payment in monthly installments in light of the clubs financial plight, Instead of taking a lump sum, (which he is entitled to) making it easier on the club?
Im only going on hear say but it would be interesting to hear what Dundalk fans have to say on it.
I have no knowledge of this (maybe others will), but I imagine that Dundalk would be receptive to such an offer if it existed.Quote:

That'll show them!
Wouldn't really make a difference considering they can't sign players until the off season anyway ;)Quote:
