    * finances went wrong when clubs got caught up in the celtic tiger and challenging for Europe

    * core problem is a lack of attendances

    * the revenue is actually bankrolling certain clubs (eg Cork City)

    * facilities not as good as GAA

    * on a positive note the quality of football has improved dramatically

    - next up Steve Mc Guinness (players Union)

    greetings from New York btw

    * not the players fault (clubs finding loopholes to bypass wage guidelines)

    * players just simply negotiating as much as the market will allow

    * league is in meltdown / players aren't being paid / clubs should be sanctioned and have their licenses withdrawn / a lot of players will go to the UK next year

    Emmet Malone knows all but knows nothing at the same time. Having a go at clubs on one hand then making out that European results are paramount on the other hand to the future of the league.

    yep, flip flopped about players wages helping the clubs improve and then forcing clubs under too

    McGuiness is a grade a tosspot IMO, i reckon being brutally honest there are only a handful that could make it in "the uk" next year. Off with them too if it means stabilising the league.

    So Emmit Malone reckons that the P1 All-Ireland was a solution to the problems in Irish football.

    I despair!!

    The P1 proposal was hair-brained and an idea that should have been disposed of a hell of a lot sooner than it was.

    For money reasons or what, this year has proven we cannot afford to pay out big wages. Even the big clubs, like Drogs and city proved it. If there going to come and play here couple of hundred so be it but i cant see that happening

    He's also able to double up his agent work with sitting on tribunals that decide the careers of his clients. I'm hazey on the details but Stephen Paisley would be able to tell you more...
