Sounds to me like he/she is nothing but a cvnt that wants to see the club go down the toilet just because he/she hasn't gotten their way.Quote:

Yeah, i'd agree with ya there, its a fairly bitter and twisted thing to do alright. There is nothing that could justify it to be honest. Hopefully their name comes out at some stage.Quote:

Unbelievable, i think that this is just one step too far the person who leaked this info, will be found and the club will hang him out to dry.. He'd want to move out of cobh being honest.
If this does materialise the club will more than likely never be able to sort out any form of sponsorship again..
I really am heartbroken, only 4 days after getting a loan out for the club, to be reading this ****, their really is some severely poisonous sick ***** in our club
Do you not think you're over-reacting?
All clubs have creditors, so what?
Some odd bits and pieces in the list - looks like the club bar isn't a separate sub-company like I'd expect it to be - or the Indo is mixing figures from wherever it can get them.
thought the article was pretty pitiful - all ifs and buts - some may have been paid and others may have been been - bla bla bla. So Cobh have creditors and clearly they are trying to clear them (ie the reference to the loan appeal for 2000k from supporters) - I really fail to see how this in of national interest (given the constant disclaimers in the piece regarding the validity of their information). Anyways best of luck Cobh in getting things sorted.
I was more interested in the article on Cork City in which the FAI announced their disappointment that Arka have not abided by their agreement to cover all expenses. Looks like the agreement wasn't worth the paper it was written on and does pose the question of how drogs / pats and I presume bohs will get by the licencing next season (I am basing this on the assumption that some agreement was in place with these clubs similar to what has come out about Arka guaranteeing all debts).
It makes a total farce of licencing and the 65% rule. The basis of exemptions was supposed to be on the basis on non-repayable donations to clubs from benefactors, but the FAI let clubs off with a bit of paper? Cork are/ were obviously peeing all over the 65% rule, without sanction from the FAI, whereas Galway and Sligo without the bit of paper were being punished. This is the great new era of FAI control with no fudges? Gavin and Delaney OUT.Quote:

While I agree the Cork comment was more newsworthy, the Cobh article can't be dismissed as easily as you've done. They owe (assuming the list is accurate) their A League entry fee, E76k in tax, referees' fees, transfer fees, players' bonuses from last year and two months ago, they owe fines (interesting that Limerick were earlier fined for not paying fines, but Cobh haven't been; what does that say about Limerick?) and their bank account is efefctively on stop. Many of the little ones - like the sandwiches, which the Indo uses to mock the league - are quite probably, as you say, creditors which have since been paid in the normal course of events, but the larger ones indicate serious problems. How they've managed to get around the 65% wage cap, God only knows.Quote:

I understand that all "bodies" who applied for a license had to guarentee the same. AFAIK Pats and Drogs benefactors were treated the same way as members clubs like Bohs. And wasn't the 65% based on projected "turnover" (including direct investment)? So Cork may have budget for €x million allowed to be spent on wages based on Arkaga investment. If Arkaga subsequently don't put that in, problems arise.Quote:

Shame that Cobh are being held up, as I doubt they're the worst case of over spending
I suspect that "creaming" occurs at a lot of clubs. I went to a Galway match once and got no ticket. Just had to pay a stewart 20 euro to get in. I doubt that money went to the club.Quote:
