Kevin Doyle, Greg O'Halloran, John O'Flynn, and Liam Kearney . . . I had a fair idea that it was a matter of time for three of these guys. Didn't expect Greg to leave.Quote:

Well said, fair play boy. No point busting the club to compete with wages levels in leagues were still a long way behind in terms of turnover. In the entire history of this league every time someone has tried that they have failed and failed miserably -( in recent times Bohs and prior to that Derry in the early 90's for example).
Take Swansea as an example. This season alone they will probably take in over 5 times the gate receipts of Irelands biggest club!
Sorry to labour the point, but take a look at the Swansea website, there smallest crowd this season for league game is 13,000. They average adult punter is paying over €18 in - that means the average punter is giving €8 more than what there giving in Turners cross. Work it out, per home game there getting €180k more than Irelands best supported club, and this from a city of similar size. Don't kid ourselves, no Irish club could compete with that.
