Ned has spent all his life involved in club and always had the club at heart.
This is the kind of Chairman that is needed.
IMO the club needs a chairman from outside the circle who will bring clarity and honesty to the position. The days of having 'average joe' in charge have to come to an end. No more relatives - a club run professionaly with no emotion.(OFF the pitch anyway)
Forget what YOU want and think about the CLUB before there is none.
Can u inform me why the chairman have so much power in cobh ramblers. In most clubs and commettes a chairman chairs the meeting and have only the casting vote ,

Why can't this club ever let things lie????????
Hendo quit. Yet a group won't let him quit. We had an EGM. So then we had another EGM and so and so fourth.
Why can't our club just let what happens happen!!!

Yes you would be correct if the chairman owned the club and invested his own money. But the chairman is elected by the members in the club to be a part of a commette who run the club for the members.
So again at meetings he chair the meetings and only have a casting vote if the votes of the commette are equal he at the end have the deciding vote.

Hes not the chairman,although I would like to see a change from the current disaster he wouldnt tick all the boxes imo.What we need is someone from the outside who knows how to run a business ie-with our current level of bad debt and he country the way it is id love to see the wage bill halved again and let the players who want to stay play,also it would enable a few more locals which is what the club needs.
any update on when the information meeting is going to be, we were promised one within 2 weeks at the last one and then i heard there was going to be one a week after the last game of the season.
Are we going to be informed or just kept in the dark by the committee.We have no manager, all players out of contract,alledgedly no sponsor for next season, huge debts owed and no way of paying them off.
Time for hard decisions to be made if we are to have a LOI team next season

lads yed want to relax a bit, this is how the club has run for 30 years, its noting new,
yes the players contracts have expired, and they will be renegotiated, as they have been in previous year (at the moment 300 players are out of contract from LOI clubs),
as for sponsor, we signed a huge deal with goodyear for one year (they were never gonna give us that deal on a 2 years basis) and if we ramained a premier division club we would get a great deal next year, unfortunately we were relegated, so well take a hit in sponsorship (more than likely goodyear will still be here next year we just have renegotiate with them)
the meeting still hasnt been set from what i heard monday,
whats the panic, the season doesnt start for 4 months,
relax
Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.
Was a meeting lastnight between the ticket sellers of the monthly draw,a few of the usuals dropped out and wont take part with the current regime so at the mo theirs no draw,it really cant continue the way it is there has to be common sense and change I for one will find it hard to support Rams next season unless the chairman steps down.
DR, relax is what you want us to do is it, do you think the taxman is up in his office saying jesus man I should relax about collecting the 6 figure some owed to the government because the season doesnt start for 4 months, oh yea what about all the creditors who are owed money for legitamely supplying goods and services to the club on the basis that they would be paid, maybe they can go into their local bank manager and say hey dude relax about my overdraft because the season doesnt start for 4 months.
Would consider you a fairly good poster here DR but that last post was naive as there are a lot of other matters to consider here plus on top of all that the players are owed money so getting our licence renewed might not even happen, but so what there is 4 months till the start of the season so hey im going to relax
