I know technically he is CCFC at the moment but Its him ,always been him .His past history of folding/winding up companies and his behaviour with them is the reason they have gone so hardball

ya fair play esp to celtic for agreeing to this friendly if it works out. looks like it will.

is there any mention of Coughan leaving the club if Cork survive? Surely this is critical?

Hold everything, JD is riding to the rescue of CC. Is there a precedent been set here can we return to being reckless knowing that JD will support us in the end, or are we still paying the price for our former Chief Exec 2 years later. Looks like we have 2 different sets of rules. From The Ashes

Thats the risk if he is allow stay on beyond this point with FORAS hoping to remove him at a later date - this process has shown hpw he will retreat to the trenches and will be a bugger to get out - he will hold on for dear life to get his so called 700k back.

We'd need that to go ahead, hopefully there'll be a massive crowd there, we really need a big amount of money from this game as we have to pay the players next Wednesday.
