So CCFC official line is too go back out to the Cork Public cap in hand and beg her good citizens for a bailout again.
Worked before.......................................
The Revenue would have to ask for the order to be withdrawn I reckon. They won't do it even if Coughlan somehow gets the rest of the money together. The Revenue stated that a further 270k had been amassed and not paid since the initial petition. That seems to have played a part in the judge's decision. He'd have to pay that as well. The time for deals is over now.
Will Bary play the fixture? There's the risk of injury to players and the cost of travel, knowing that no matter what result they get it will count for nothing? Of course they will be punished for not furfilling the fixture.
Partizan, did Waterford Utd not exist under the old name of Waterford prior to becoming Waterford Utd, just like Cork had previous names, sorry for bringing it up here ;)Quote:

Would you include Bohs in those with "dodgy books"?Quote:

That really would've been a case of good money after bad.
As said above, I'd imagine the FAI will provide assistance to getting a proper members run club into the A league.
Also, how any fan (bar UCD, the EL's equivalent of the banking sector, too big to fail) can laugh at a club going under? Its not like the vast majority of fans need to think that far back to their clubs last panic stations moment.
I would also make a complaint to the ODCE to get Tom Coughlan disbarred. In relation the question above, just by dint of a company getting wound up won't get him disbarred. He'll need to go through due process separately. But he shouldn't be allowed near any business after what he's done. IMO the examiner should also be sued by the creditors, but I doubt anyone has the appetite for an expensive and risky action like that.
That's very true and I wonder how many of them will be using this as an excuse for missing the wage cap/other indiscretions at the end of the season.Quote:

Are they still in the Cup??

Has anybody got a copy of the 2009 Participation Agreement that they can post here or host elsewhere.
If they haven't got the facility to do that could they pm me and I will.
