Well Stu
Any response ?

Still waiting to be filled in on the above facts...

Could you have possibly came on here and posted something without knowing the full facts ? A similiar situation maybe to most of the other nonsense you have come out with about Shelbourne.

I'm still interested in hearing how you came to the over spending conclusion

its a real pity what once was the best ground in the league, is going to be lost to the league.

Who was it sold to?

If developers then it'll probably be another row of houses. Maybe it'll be called Tolka Row?

There already is a Tolka Row!

and of course it was to developers

An Ollie Byrne Memorial Estate would be fitting.

Right Stu,,,
copy and paste of my post in the Drogheda thread as they thought it was being hijacked!!

any answers ??

What way would you like me to prove you lied ?
I know what's going on at Shelbourne this year and can tell you there's no overspending. You stated it as if it were a fact. A fact I know not to be true.

You have a twisted way of looking at things.
It's ok for you to state that Shelbourne are continuing overspending on the 25th May 2008. Yet I've to just come on here and prove they are not ???

If I said someone on here had 5 nipples, would he/she have to come on and prove that they don't ? Your logic is crazy!

Please back up your statement with regards to Shelbourne.
I know you told a lie so can confidently post here and call you a liar.

I find this comment extremely inappropriate, bordering on offensive in fact...a totally pointless 'contribution' to the debate/argument.

It makes the league sound like a joke when you read yet again that a club could go out of business!! There's no need for Waterford to come out with this nonsense. All clubs struggle to meet the weekly costs of running a club. When the money goes the costs are slashed and you get on with running the club. You don't come out with bad news stories that make the league look like a joke.

The facts here seem to be that Waterfords running costs are 10k a week with wages making up about 7k of this, is that correct ?
They don't have any existing debt.
Transfer window is only a month or two away.

Why the song and dance ?

Worst case would be you run up debts of 30 or 40k before you cut most of that 7k wage bill. With home gates and assuming you have some cash there already it may not be that much of a debt.

Surely a case of Always the same sometimes..... still at least were not the only ones making the league look a joke ( apologies in advance to the genuine supporters of the respective clubs in trouble).

I think I see why you have so few posts - your point is a bit lost, 15 months after the original thread.:D
