Cork must have it from tottering on the edge.
The consortium have set a deadline of 12 pm tomorrow for a decision on whether to proceed according to extratime.
Apparently it's looking increasingly unlikely and there's even doubts whether TNB has proper title to the shares not to mention shady promises being made to secure loans. I think they'll have to walk away.
So FORAS for the 1st Division then...
Looks like it.Extra time article here. Bray get your gear ready.

I'm not getting my hopes up yet... I still think the FAI will find some way of not following their own rules with this...
They won't give Tom a licence much and all as they want Cork. They declared war on each other some time ago there is no way Delaney's ego would allow Tom get the better if him. If the takeover doesn't go ahead it's FORAS on the
First.

Quintas ready to pull plug on takeover
Thursday, 18 February 2010 19:41
Quintas has stated that the deal to takeover Cork City is unlikely to go through, plunging the club's future into doubt once again.
The consortium, comprising of Peter Gray, Michael O'Connell and FORAS, the Cork City Supporters Trust, have set a deadline of noon on Friday finalise the offer.
Looks like a waste of a new website
They have a lovely new website for the consortium , suppose they can use it for plan B
There is no "consortium" website.
FORAS had put one together for the PlanB option to meet the requirement for licencing.
After the adjournment Monday it was taken back to just a 'coming soon' page.
The webmaster will be delighted you thought it was lovely though :D
No,coming soon to a league near you. Foras will be lonely in the 1st Div without Bray this year. Not to worry as I'm sure that they will be back down with us at the end of next season.Who knows even Pats might decide to join us. After all your manager is an expert in relagation issues:D
If a licence is handed out to CCFC, and they get permission to start in the PL, first up there's the decision on what to do with the manager, and regardless there's a UEFA ban hanging over the club. So it kind of is important, though I agree as this time tomorrow there could be no Cork City. There are more important things to worry about, hopefully it'll all be clear at 12pm tomorrow.
The manager is not important, not in the slightest. I agre with Buile Shuibhne, knock the maltese stuff on the head (in this thread)
After noon tomorrow we may know a lot more . FORAS have annonced a members information session for this Sunday.
More than likely to explain why they've had to pull out I would think. Don't see it being salvaged by 12 tomorrow when he hasn't co-operated all week. He doesn't care if the club goes bust he's put nothing in by the looks of it.
