I have no objection to that outcome. :)Quote:

FORAS is the crowd you're thinking of. But how advanced/organised they are I don't know.
I think Reading are going to sort him out there.Quote:

I thought then that the FAI introduced a rule of a points deduction similar to the english and scottish leagues.
That would be my reading into the numbers myself. They have been racking up this debt for probably the entire season. It is possible the Uefa Cup travel expenses forced their hands as they couldn't pay that from gate receipts.Quote:

The reason people had a go at Shels fans was the head in the sand attitude of some of them. City fans were suspicious of Arkaga but we had little choice & accepted them at their word when they said budgeting for 1m loss & in the club for the long term. I did not not anticipate the impact of failing to pay bills for a year.
Newstalk just mentioned debts of €1.3m including €370k in tax. Don't know where they got this from.
Court lodged documents;)Quote:

Now I'm not saying he's a club killer but you have to ask questions of the lad
Hmm if Reading end up in administration there's definitely a gypsy curse on the lad..which he picked up at Rovers obviously, the gypsies being well known for their loathing of all things Rovers. In all seriousness though if he ends up at Reading I hope he makes a go of it, he's worked hard the last couple of years to progress as a player and it's paid dividends.
Yep. Hope he goes to Sunderland.Quote:

mooney was with rovers for the first part of the season but because shamrock rovers were in fin trouble they sold him to us in the transfer window along with stephen gough.. cant rem if there was a fee or not involved.obviously he was part of last seasons squad too..
wish all the best in the move.. wonder will Longford Town get any cut of the deal for developing him as we did when we sold him to cork? we were discussing this at the ireland under 19 match last nite..
From my calculations we'd get 1.5% of any transfer fee received by Cork. If he's sold for €250,000 we'd receive the princely total of €3,750. Still we signed him for nothing and have gotten €25,000 off Cork already for him. Shamrock Rovers would get a higher figure as they had him longer in their schoolboy section. Can't be bothered to work it out for them!
Did you get a sell on clause when we bought him.Quote:

According to the Daily Mail the examiner is moving in. To examine no doubht. And now mooney is off to greener pastures wonder if he will pay us back the cash we sponsored him with ?! :)
You know what. the first person to pay after examinership is the examiner. The Mooney deal is to pay the examiner and you still have a 1.3m debt
And Arkaga have reneged on all debts, and the FAI have said "Alright so".
Really serious cloud over licencing; Cork only got the licence because Arkaga would cover all debts. Going to have to change the rule to, at a minimum, ensure that money must be put in as the season goes along. Won't happen, of course.
