AFC and then drop the A whenever. Cork City AFC OR AFC Cork City as DCFCSTE said the A can be dropped 5 minutes after the carpet bagger is gone.

RTE now says that if the money isn't in the players' accounts by 4pm, they won't travel. But, surely they'd already have to be on the road by that time?
They gave strike notice 1 WEEK ago and they are still standing around less than 2 hours until this deadline (which was moved) and you think Coughlan might be waiting for money to be transferred??
I, under no circumstances want Cork to strike as I want Rovers to have a go at winning this league without any walkover, asterix, or points deduction.
Word is the players have been paid and will travel
Or here's an even more interesting scenario - Cork are wound up/withdraw from the league, and all games involving them this season are declared null and void (as I believe happened when Dublin City disbanded mid season). This would mean all teams would lose the points they have taken off Cork so far this season. Bohs would lose 9 points, while SRFC would lose only 3. League title effectively decided, and the League of Ireland descends to an unprecedented level of farce.
So TNB pulls another rabbit from the hat and the circus rolls on. Better for the league I guess, at least in the short term.

Frank And Irene step in ?
Whatever about Cork City to be wound up I find this entire thing to be a wind
up. Maybe I'm reading it wrong but every week it seems to be
1. Cork players not paid
2. Cork players threaten strike of deadline not met
3. Night before deadline, TNB asks for extension
4. Players extend deadline
5. Go back to 1.
Now maybe I am reading it wrong but if not the players should either **** or get off the pot

It's not confirmed that they've been paid, the game is still in doubt apparently.
Latest: Players have boarded the bus at Silversprings.....they were given bank drafts by a club representative according to Billy Barry on 96FM - he and other media were at Silversprings.
