And again I say it, if you want to use the word jealous, then I've no doubt you most definately are. I'm very proud to be part of a group who've done what has to be done. I'd love to be able to show you this year's figures but unlike your club, we've no leaks. Hope for your player's wages' sake that Tommy Allen sold a lot more medicines this week :pirate:
Not sure I understand the question. Are we re-writnig history, not how I remember it?Quote:

Agreed dcfcsteve should have known it was impossible to discuss anything to do with the Shams without righteous indignation pouring out of every post (and a little history editing). Time to move on.........:rolleyes:Quote:

How come when Shams are having a pop at Bohs its just "an inside track" or other such drivel.
But when anyone else has a pop against Shams its one of the following "bitterness, jealousy or bitterness"?
You're embarrassing yourself because you can't get over Sunday's humiliation. However FAI cover up/Tippex is hilarious. You've obviously forgotten that Bohs cheated the 65% for every week bar the last one last season. What I always find funny as well regarding the ground situation is that Bohs fans either don't know or choose to ignore how they were handed Dalymount themselves. I was shown a copy of a post yesterday taken from the Bohs forum from a genuine bloke trying to help his club out by continuing to tell the truth. Apparently it's not the first time and he's always been treated with disdain. It's sad to see someone like that go to bat for a shower of total fools. :disappointed:Quote:

No, I want you to keep roofjumping. On the ground, considering you lot keep saying we got a ground 'handed to us', why don't you tell the good people on here how Bohs came to own Dalymount? On the post, that was my point! It's sad from a Bohs perspective that so few people had the courage to stand up to Conway. On the game on Sunday, all you're bitching all week is because you can't get over it and you're club is dying a death. Have to say though you do make the odd funny comments like Bohs broke no rules. It's all in the past though, what counts is the future. Well for us anyway.Quote:

Boo-hoo to some of the holier than holy waffle on this thread.
Often its forgotten that football is largely a cash business.
Herald claimed last year of a player "earning" 50 quid getting more on the sly.
Shame the author wouldnt expose the club and player involved.
You are wrong there passerby, the 400 club in effect forced the club into administration by refusing the hand over any more of the susbscriptions until certain questions were answered and assurances given.Quote:

I really like how mb doesn't address a single point of hoopy's and that passerrby added "in fact" to no fact whatsoever :)
And I like the fact that there has been no attempt to explain how these losses came about from any of the Rovers fans.
Sometimes it seems that the Bohs/Rovers default bickering is a convenient cover for both to avoid actually discussing issues about their clubs.
is that not the same as saying the bank forced you into administration as it would not give the club any more money. although i do agree the 400 club was a great lifeline and a welcome addition to the club. my point was that the circumstances were not of your making but were a result of poor management. the fact that the 400 club was waiting in the wings to take over after the disaster was not a buisness plan. as for the stadium i dont think that was anything to to with forward planning but as i said falling into **** and coming out smelling of roses.Quote:

Yes, this old board didnt plan for the 400c to take over but the 400c hit the ground running when they took over and had a business plan in place.Quote:

After 18 months of listening to his ******ology the 400 club realised he was nothing but a bull**** artist screwing the club. At the end of the 2004 season the 400 club stopped funding SRFC in an effort to force the then board out. It also held meetings with the FAI and blew the whistle on the dodgy accounts the Maguire board had submitted. Without the continued funding from the 400 club SRFC was in grave trouble and Maguire had no option but to put the club into examinership (on 400 club advice) in April 2005. As soon as an examiner was put in place the 400 club took control and ran the club. Examinership lasted 3 months during which time the 400 club had to pay the players over inflated salaries which the Maguire board had sanctioned. These 3 months of examinership drained most of the funds the 400 club had leaving only about 250k to buy the club and pay off creditors which wouldn't have been enough. The 400 club teamed up with Ray Wilson in a 50 50 partnership and the rest they say is history. All in all the 400 club would have pumped close to €1 million into SRFC up to the end of 2005.Quote:

Probably shouldn't be posting this here but I don't see why it would be top secret.
As each year passes and the members club (formerly 400 club) keeps investing more money into SRFC, Ray's shareholding dilutes until eventually the members club will have 100% ownership of SRFC.
Regular member, his original 50% share holding has been diluted over time as the members monthly subs keep rolling in. He said all along that he didnt put the money in as an "investment" but just to help save the club he loves.
If Rovers do win the league this year, or if Pats do, then for the first time in years and years we'll have a Championship winning side built on a sustainable budget. That does suggest a certain shift from recent years if it does happen.Quote:

You wouldn't take CRO documents as gospel?
You're aware of what happened the last time Rovers submitted falsified documents to the CRO?
Sorry I wasn't clear, having heard what was said at the AGM, I and most Rovers fans don't have too many fears that we are running at that sort of loss. The figure of the loss on last season was set out at the AGM and reasons for it were explained at the time.
I hadn't realised Rico was back in involved with Rovers...Quote:

Huh? No, I'm not suggesting that. The accounts are as published and correct. Where did you get that idea from?
From you seeming to agree with Jicked when he says he wouldn't take the CRO accounts as gospel.

There is also a very detailed explanation of the retained loss figure posted by a board member on our members forum over the weekend so all our members know exactly what is going on.
PS Mr moderator, the last 10 or so posts should be in the Rovers Accounts thread not this one.
