Finn appears to be a done deal to Rovers, havent heard anything about Williams. Save your mock outrage till they are confirmed.

The plan seems to have been to cut the wage bill by 75% or so from 1m to 250k, looking at the below that looks about right.

The board have not discussed the budget with the media, these figures come from Fenlon who has no reason to lie and no history of doing so even going back to Shels from what I remember.

actually we got rid of our "old board" long ago. Despite the nonsence often posted on here the two Gerrys are long gone from the board. Unlike Cork, however, we didnt wait until the club went out of business to make the necessary changes

Cork didn't vote in TNB, and couldn't vote him out. Ye did vote the two Gerries in, and took too long to vote them out. Can't compare the two situations.

You forgot to mention the stupid part where you got rid of the two Gerrys and then voted in another set of clowns who once again gambled on getting through a round in europe and led you into the mess you have found yourself in the last few months.

judging by shams recruitment policies I think we can guess where the two Gerrys ended up

Probably in the Bohemians hall of fame.

Really?

I helped Glenville on their stiles for the Cup game last year and got by chance to see the official guestlist submitted by Bohs ...

Have a guess who was on it?

If these people are gone off the scene, why were Bohs still affording them VIP treatment?

;-)

Not sure what VIP treatment they were accorded but hardly unusual to have former officials/players etc on a "free " list for matches. You might be surprised to know this is quite common at most LOI clubs.
I can assure you neither Gerry has a role on the current Bohs board irrespective of whether they pay into matches or not.

**Charlie Darwin** · 24/02/2011, 4:11 PM

What exactly does "VIP treatment" entail in domestic Irish football? A free can of fanta?

**osarusan** · 24/02/2011, 4:15 PM

In Jackman there's a section of grass cut a bit shorter for them to stand on.

you can thank the examiner for giving tommy the club. oh and we did everythign possible to save the club, to keep the debt etc

In fact I reckon if we hadn't applied for the First Division license as a safety net, the FAI would have given us a premier license for CCIFL
