I'll get back to you with my repayments when I'm good and ready."....eh, I don't think so:o

Revenue never mentioned anything historical. That first came about with Brian Lennox trying to convince the cork fans it was all an innocent mistake. Most seem to have swallowed it. Ollie on the other hand is a nasty criminal trying to cheat everyone in the league :rolleyes:

A debt is a debt and they all need paying.....
NO EXCUSES....

I'm glad you've woken up to sense.

Can you now go forward and spread the word to the rest of the members of your cult.

An article by Mark Gallagher in the Ireland on Sunday had words to the effect of "the bill will be definitely paid by the date" but that looked like it was lifted off Shelsweb. The media doesn't seem to have unearthed any real explanation as to where this second wind up order came from.:confused:

It says a lot about the eL when it isn't really a big deal when one of its most prominent clubs gets a winding up order. Chances are it'll be paid of course, but Shels seem to be walking a very fine line. One f*%k up in getting money from the property guys or whoever and it's bye bye. And if they weren't having bother paying wouldn't it be paid before the date?

In any case it's yet more bad publicity for the league........

If you add up all the bits and pieces, it sounds to me like Shels are just alternating between paying the Revenue and paying the players, but they're not in a position to do both at once.

Ollie says there is nothing to worry about so Im not stressed.

That's as good a guess as I can come up with. Now that the transfer window has closed and the season's end is approaching they can stop paying the players again.;)

Here's the article. It seems to suggest that it's the same bill as the last winding-up order.

The Revenue filed a similar petition against the club in March after it emerged it owed €300,000 in back taxes. The petition was dropped after the two sides agreed a schedule of repayment. However, the club has fallen behind on the repayments, prompting the Revenue to return to the High Court. The two sides are in negotiations for a new deal.

if ollie gets his replay with bohs and give the gate to charity
does that mean shels is registered as a charity. if not i could recommenend that well known charitry the foot in mouth foundation ,im sure ollie knows them i think he was a founder member

Actually Schumi I'd read that as implying that it's a new winding up order...

My reading too.

Its a new winding up order on the same debt.

There's also a fair chance the Revenue won't agree to a payment plan this time around and will demand everything paid up to date in a lump sum PDQ.

Just read it again actually - you're right. It says Revenue and Shels agreed a settlement method - say 30 months @ E10,000 a month - which Shels have now defaulted on. Which isn't surprising really as, say, two gates of 1,500 a month might only bring in E30,000 cash in total, from which to pay the ten grand, wages, stadium expenses, debt servicing, travel, etc.
