    Feel sorry for Bray's fans, players and officials if they are on the road already to Cork - hope they haven't travelled far.

    At least it gives Cork fans an opportunity to have some type of wake.

    Mourn the passing of the current group, and galvanise efforts for igniting the future incarnation.

    Its sad but so inevitable

    The Revenue Commissioners are obviously seriously ****ed off with Coughlan!

    The Revenue are not the villians here

    The problem in my opinion was that they would have been in the same sh*te in 2 months time.
    Only another 9 titles till Drogheda become pride of county louth!!!

    There is no reason for this game to go ahead, none at all now.

    I don't know. If our license is still operable I'd say not, if it's not then I'd say yes. So that depends.

    Yeah, it seems strange they are announcing the game will go ahead. What's the point?

    What if a Bray player broke his leg and missed the rest of the season?

    There should be no game. This is a professional sport and people's livelihoods are at stake.

    A sad day to see any club go like this, even if you feel, as I do, that it might be best in the long run.

    I have nothing but sympathy for all the Cork fans out there who are losing their club. As a Limerick fan I had to contemplate this a few weeks ago (and maybe again before long) and I hope that FORAS (or whoever) can start the process of setting up a new club as soon as possible.

    It is a horrible day for County Cork, Cork City FC and the supporters for Cork City but the club is now gone, Tonight's match means nothing in terms of League points, yet we will still be out of pocket.

    We are working off the smallest budgest in the League, a squad down to the bear bones and we are travelling 5 hours to play a match that means nothing to us and cannot help us in any way to survive and stay in the Premier Division.

    They don't have to give one. Their rationale was explained when they sought the winding up order.

    Tough day to be a Cork fan.

    My sympathies, and looking forward to seeing a new, community based Cork City in the premier in 3 years time.

    Best of luck.

    In fairness though,if they had not folded you would have been automatically relegated IMO,at least from a relegation point of view you have a far better chance of surviving,so on a day were the people of Cork have lost the club they love,its a bit rich for a Bray fan to be whingeing
    Only another 9 titles till Drogheda become pride of county louth!!!

    Bray should lose on purpose so they don't lose the points in 21 days

    Bad day for Irish football, pity that such a big club have to go to like this.

    If the Celtic game is guaranteed, and this Coughlan guy apparently has the money, why isn't he giving the club a short term loan which he can then pay himself back with from the Celtic proceeds?? Doesn't sound like much of a business man to me......
