Both, by the looks of it.

**razor** · 31/07/2009, 12:14 PM

according to our forum the revenue won't budge.

We have until 4pm to get more money.

Prelonged agony...

**James** · 31/07/2009, 12:20 PM

**SMorgan** · 31/07/2009, 12:24 PM

Can they bring the Bray game forward to a 2.00 pm kick-off?

Surely they could make that with the Celtic match and other things up until then, the revenue seem to be very petty about all this, getting their money is surely the priority and they won't get the full amount shutting the club down.

And why would they afte how they've been messed around?
All this talk of Coughlan being such a spoofer ( and worse ) from the city fans yet now ye're willing to let him have one more go on ye, with JD in the room cracking one off!
Brilliant.

Gone according to Newstalk

**Magicme** · 31/07/2009, 12:29 PM

Is that it?

**White Horse** · 31/07/2009, 12:29 PM

Newstalk are reporting that the Fat lady has sung for Cork City FC:

Cork City have failed in their bid to negotiate a deal with the Revenue Commissioners after the High Court today ordered the club to be placed into liquidation...

Hopes of a stay of execution had been raised after the Leesiders confirmed an upcoming friendly with Celtic, while a British consortium was also being lined up to make an offer for the club.

Tonight's clash with Bray Wanderers in the League of Ireland Premier Division will go ahead, as the club enters a 21 day liquidation period.

My sympathies to Cork City fans, a moment no-one would like for their club.

**irishultra** · 31/07/2009, 12:30 PM

I'll always remember the Intertot Cup run

**SeanDrog** · 31/07/2009, 12:31 PM

why on earth have tonights game going ahead

**pineapple stu** · 31/07/2009, 12:33 PM

They still exist for 21 days; suppose they ought to trade to get as much cash as possible to help the liquidation.

If I were a Cork fan, I'd pay FORAS the ticket price and not go in. (And I know that's easy to say from here)
