Maybe I missed the sarcasm in your post, i really hope I did

I think a lot of fans would jump around like lunatics if one minute they thought their club was dead and buried and then all of a sudden there was even a glimmer of hope.
Also if you follow shels and not the league why would you call it embarrassing or feel the need to comment on it even?
Because it's embarrassing regardless :confused:
The last place club gets €40k.Quote:

Ah, I see - It's really €60k, taking into account the TV money
Maybe its straight forward but can someone exlpain to me:
CCFC have written cheques that have bounced (two in total i think), so then its fair to say there is no money in the business account. Yet the players wages are still being paid, so are they geting payed in cash or somthing.
The players haven't been paid since the last Wednesday in June, according to the papers.Quote:

Prize money will come off that bill. TV money comes off that bill,, Also other things like the use of your ground if you own it for junior games will come off the bill.
As Stu likes to say the Cawley fee was paid by the FAI and our debt to the FAI would have increased.
I would think few clubs in the league are all square with the FAI. Shels I know owed a lot of money to the FAI when we hit the wall. They made us pay most of this back, into six figures, before they would even entertain us with a First Division licence.
It's hard to imagine that Cork were up to date with payments to the FAI regarding fines and league fees. Leaving the FAI unpaid is normally one of the first things you do as they are probably the most unlikely to chase the money in the courts. They would stop it from the end of season prize money.
If Cork are up to date with all creditors apart from Revenue then fair play to them. They don't deserve any punishment but I'd be worried that they actually did owe the FAI money and what the FAI have done here is wrong.
Of course we'll never know if Cork were up to date with the FAI or not.
Still completely missing the point. The clowns don't know what they're celebrating. 'I don't know, who cares'....Quote:

Well then what the hell are the FAI playing at. Apparently they are looking over our books every 3 weeks or so (maybe some one could clarify that).Quote:

They are paid monthly and the last payment was due last week which the players agreed to defer.Quote:
