This is all based on how I view the situation of course but from now on FORAS can basically do one when it comes to asking for our support.

I was the one peddling LMS and I was peddling it on the basis that its a fun game you can win money out more than anything, a Dundalk fan won 3 of them.

Bohs also peddle LMS, are people signing up to that out of solidarity to Bohs? They are yeah.

Our aims are on our website, they're very clear and straightforward. We are trying to fulfil them and that was why the proposal was voted through the other night.

Funny that all this anger only appeared after the FAI bottled it rather than when it was first agreed?

We are fans, trying to get some say in our club one way or another. We are not the FAI, we do not make the decisions on licencing. We were told all that was missing from the licence was the money being paid (again we didnt decide this, the FAI did) and we tried to ensure this money was paid in time.

It wasnt, through no fault of ours. we expected the licence to be denied, again it wasnt. None of that was in our hands.

Im gonna leave it there, Im going around in circles and no ones gonna change their minds.

Just reading over my last few posts. I didnt mean to sound like were ungrateful for the support we have gotten. We wouldnt have gotten this far without the help weve gotten from other clubs/trust and fans.

What I was trying to say is that I cant let that affect our decisions in this issue, we have to do whats best for the club and trust and if that means people turn on us then we'l have to deal with that.

My brain is frazzled atm and things arent always coming out exactly how I want them to sound :D

Micls has there been any more movement on the takeover? Did you receive the neccessary docs from TNB?

I don't think anyone is arguing against that. its the "we didn't do anything wrong, blame the FAI for us getting the licence" argument that I have a problem with. By all means fight your corner, but don't pretend like you're totally innocent in this debacle

(and I say that as someone who has consistently supported Cork on this and other issues, I even donated stuff for a FORAS auction a while ago. I absolutely want Cork City to survive. I would just be disgusted if I aw them in european football next year)

Are you going to be brought to task for posting here too? hahahahaha

Don't think his new role is a big secret but I'm just being cautious as they may have their reasons for not announcing it yet!. I'm sure it will all come out in due course. I've been brought to task a couple of times over the years but sure I'm still here..

I still got the job as resident bafoon yea? I heard rumours it was being out sourced?
