I think I should get the premier division place because I'm great. In fact I should get two in case one goes bust.
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
Thats up to the FAI. Has nothing to do with the ILC.
I wonder if Rovers fans felt the same all those years that they wandered around Dublin like wild horses. If you were one of those Rovers fans you would know how some of the fans in Cork felt. There is great credit due to the Cork people who tried to keep Cork City alive & tried to get a fair deal for all those people who tonight are left with nothing but unpaid debts & those who tomorrow will probably lose their livelyhood because of the folly of one man.I did not agree with their attempts but they have my utmost respect for trying to do the right thing.

Right decision by the ILC and the bets move for Cork Whatever FC in the long run I feel
Yes, job well done. In business, and politics, you get what you want by asking for twice that. It's a pity that's how it has to be, but if you don't play the game, you don't get what you want. Think about that the next time a political party or a business comes out with an outrageous list of demands. I blame the Star.
(Obviously. I blame everything on the Star. Can you imagine the idyllic pastures Irish football would be without that rag?)

Delighted to be a Premier Division, terrified to think of our points haul at the end of the season! We could do a few physical and experienced players. We have a good, young squad, but they're too light to compete in the Premier and after seeing Bohs put 7 past us last week, and knowing that we'll be working off the smallest budget in the Premier again, I can't help but fear the worst, while obviosuly hoping for the best. Our first competitive game is in 3 days in the Leinster Cup.
Good luck to the new Cork City, the fans are the ones who have been there through it all and hopefully a couple of years in the First Division will see the making of a better club.
Very MLS-ish..

Please don't call a football team a Co-op for the love of God
I know you all would like to keep it Cork City FC but it's really quite, actually it's very, lame to call it Foras Co-op just to keep the FC initials

Cork's Merry Shower of Dancing Giraffes FC would be better than Cork City Foras Co-op to be honest
Welcome to D1 CCFC FC, your 1st game will be against us!
That is some big clubs now in D1........if Cork can start the season well along with us,Shels and Waterford I can see D1 having bigger average Att than the premier!
What will happen to this years Setanta cup I wonder?
So if you think Bohs are big read this. http://www.astronomy.ie/perpespective.html
Hello Europe!It's been too long...
Not wanting to rain on anyone's parade, but isn't there an appeals process that takes place within 3 days? If it's the case that they do appeal then suddenly it's game on again, and the winding up order will only take place if there is no money to meet the bills, which still hasn't been ruled out. Or maybe this whole thing has frazzled my brain!
Woke up to a mail this morning from Malta, the news broke late last night and there won't be any reaction until later on, but the club will be "cautious" in issuing any release or anything related to Roddy. He's still under contract but suspended and will be in the CAS. I don't think anyone will want him back, which is a shame as he'd managed to do a more than decent job getting the players going.
I think we can safely say there is no way back and we, as followers of the local game, can take only a passing interest in what happens in the High Court this afternoon.
PS :- How about somebody starting up a new thread to deal with the implications of all this? 178 pages of posts is mental.
I would, but I am too shy!!

edit: It's with Des Cahill and will be very interesting as to who is to blame, and if this counts as a relegation on his record, and if he'll return to Malta.
I know I'll be slated for saying this, but I still feel sorry for the man. Having a general lack of cop on has cost him a chance to be a hero in Malta, but instead he thought he was cleverer than the average fox. It's sad, yet I keep smiling.

Except yourselves and Cork aren't really the same clubs as previously though, are ye?
Sure we can brush that under the carpet as well.
Everything is great. Well done to all involved on a job well done!
What about Cork City teams still in competition like their youth team. Are they affected?
It may have been a week late, but well done to the ILC for finally making the right decision for the good of the LoI. Will take a few seasons for Foras to be serious challengers, but no doubt it's only a matter of time before they will be playing in the Premier Division. Said in the Star on Saturday that Damien Richardson will be the new manager?
Roddy looked for a meeting with FORAS but they never wanted to meet him, according to the man. He's clearing out the house, ringing around clubs to get players jobs and he feels responsible for bringing players into it. Amazing how his memory seems to be so suspect.
