Surely having fans on the bus singing, chanting
('' oh yer all a pack of w'%nkers down de fornt) and annoying the lads isnt good preperation.
I got a better idea, instead of trying to hatchet the Bar Managers job so some Committee croney can fill the position under a different guise, why not lease the position to the existing Manager for lets say €50,000 a year. That way the club would immediately be up the €50,000 plus what they had previously paid in salary - all in one stroke!
Let the oul MSL brigade come up with one better, and lets not lose sight of the fact that you cannot hatchet that position in its present form without paying out some serious compo which the club doesnt have - but that little fact doesnt seem to bother the MSL screamers!
Excellent idea Redshanks!... hats off to you - most decent money saving idea ive heard for a long time.Quote:

Just curios though about having to pay him compo if he was ''hatchetted'' - i was under de impression he only had a month to month rolling contract.
good idea redshanks but surely you could get more than 50 k, certain pubs downtown are being rented for 1200-1500 per week so 65-70 k would be more reasonable from club point of view. but defo makes sense :D
time to call A SPADE A SPADE this is a crisis
the whole club is fighting with each other, finances are dire and team is lifeless , being beaten 5-0 by city is by far the worst night i have experienced as a ramblers supporter
people would want to stop the political mindgames and start realising what this club is actually about IT IS A FOOTBALL CLUB for christ sake at the mo you wouldnt know that
this egm cant come soon enough and get it all in the open and get it sorted
we are the laughing stock of cork tonight and if people still want to go down the political road it shows lack of care for club, i have the greatest respect for the players but they were outfought out classed and outplayed and after 20 minutes basically just gave up, when i was walking out ground i was behind two rams players who didnt make panel, and heard them say god i am delighted i wasnt playin tonight , i would have been a disaster to be involved with that , delighted lads with your loyalty.
Yous were under the wrong impression so Madam -Offsider, or atleast your interpretation of the legal adivice on the matter was. By the way, I didnt propose hatchetting, that seems to be your preferred option (a very costly one) but sure it wont be out of your pocket will it? (all in a higher cause says you and the MSL brigade, when you criple whats left of the club).
RF, get real will you, 1500 per week to lease the rams pub, you said pubs downtown are making that, i know one bar that was getting 1200 per week and owners couldnt sustain it. Get 50k per year maximum and be done with it,the club then will start with 50k in its budget and not worry about running the bar for the rest of the year so a saving will be made on admin expenses aswell including reduced auditor fees so your real saving will be a lot bigger than what you think and this money could go a long way towards the alledged but b**ls**t figure of 15k a week wages for the players that some fool at the agm kept quoting, im sure same guy thinks he is Bill Gates the way he goes on.Quote:

The club and its needs were immediately suspended and forgotten about and personal hate took over. I threw out the figure of €50,000 just as a round figure to play with. How could I know what the approbriate figure should be, if higher or lower, but as you said 6 yarder, pubs are closing all over the place these days and are not the goldmines they once were. Perhaps the club should lease it out as an off-licence and we might be onto something then. (I just thought my prposal would help the clubs financial problems, save the manager and legal actions, so that everyone would be a winner, but it doesnt seem that everyone would be happy and that is a different matter) By the way if you lease the bar out for €50K then we are really making more when we include the managers existing salary (whatever that is)!;)
You don't need a psv licence to drive a bus, just the correct category drivers licence.Quote:
