He only does that when it's to Shels' advantage. For example, when the league's rules called for Shels to pay a 20,000 euro transfer fee to UCD, Ollie went in and out of the high court to try to avoid paying it.Quote:

Does anyone know ?? ....... surely he wont get away with it scott free ?? :eek:
I mean ... if it is the case .... then things would be really starting off on the wrong foot, might as well tear up the rule book now. It is as if the league are telling people they can break the rules ..... is that the case now ??
Don't UEFA or FIFA have a rule that says clubs cannot go to Court when disputes arise? I think all disputes are supposed to be resolved within the football authorities. I don't think we often see english clubs going to court over disputes with the Premier League or FA?Quote:

They do but it contradicts Irish law so it's ignored here.Quote:

Don't you mean an illegible coach ? (Copyright Shelsman) :D :DQuote:

What rule would that be that says having a suspended coach = a 3 point deduction in a game we got 1 point in :confused:Quote:

I didn't realise that, it seems strange to me, I would have thought the logical thing to do if you're deducting points would be to declare the match a win to the other team, so the point gained is lost and, in both cases, UCD get an extra two.Quote:

Shambles, if it was Cork they'd have docked them 400 points, booted them out of the league and bulldozed Turners Cross.

Disgraceful decision.Quote:

This no sets a precedent for other clubs - when you have big game coming up can ignore the touchline ban, pay small fine & serve ban at later stage.
The same punishment would have happened to anyone Dave Hill,Gary Howlett or Terry Evison it just so happened to Eamonn Collins and had it happened to anyone else no shels fans would be on here saying it's a disgrace because we expect no better of the F.A.I. and neither should you.They are the joke .
Cork played 3 bangers in Belfield in 1996 having beaten us 1-0. Cork were deducted points and I think fined. We got nothing out of it and the result stood in Goals For and Goals Against. So we ended up -1 goals regardless.Quote:
