Looks like Dundalk don't want the extra 30K

**Spudulika** · 09/12/2011, 4:16 PM

Kirby's a class player, big move for Longford if it's true.

Oh, he's a good player, I just thought he was a bit old to be making the move. Then again, I thought he was late 20s.

not like to drop a post like that Financial Stew. usually you lay it all out in perfect detail. Want to share?

**Spudulika** · 09/12/2011, 4:56 PM

Dodge, it's to do with the tosh about somebody saying they'll stick 30 grand into the club if the fans do to, or some other hocus pocus.

He's on about the friends of dundalk thing.
If dundalk get so many fans to contribute each week, some anonymous fan was willing to put in 30k of his own money or up to it anyway.
However , With eddie gormley being named as the front runner, noone will put money into dundalk IF it happens.

If both parties work together it could be a great partnership which benefits both club and council. personally im just glad we have a home ground, owners or not, and can, as we have been doing, reestablish ourselves as the no.1 team in the country. Peolple on here can spout the usual 'Homeless crap' but 2 league titles, All Ireland Title and Europa group stage, you think rovers fans give a hoop.

Fair enough but I didn't read one post where anybody said anything about Shams being homeless.

I think one of the mistakes Cook made that cost us in the league was to drop Davoren for Powell for a few games and it didn't work.
He's a good prospect. Should really have had him on a two year deal after the previous season but there you go.

what 'cost' you the league was the fact Rovers were the better team over the whole season.

Just talking in general not necesarily quoting any post from here, Homeless is one of the usual shouts from opposition fans

dont think there are too many options within the league to manage Dundalk, its a shame they cant get their off field house in order as its a club with huge potential, the bulls*it politics in the boardroom seem to be holding them back.

If this club was run proper We could easily have been challanging for the league behind Rovers.
Aw well. Sure what can ye do.

Do you just try to contradict everything?
Read my post. I never said it "cost us the league", I said it has cost us "in the league". To explain, I believe we would have accumulated more points than we did had Powell not played. That has nothing to do with winning the league or any other team.
Funnily enough, you are new enough on here but I had a feeling you would respond with something like that.
Ignore list seems to be in order.

**Guinney** · 10/12/2011, 12:42 PM

I just hope the Gormley rumour is a rumour and nothing more.

**TangyZizzle** · 10/12/2011, 2:10 PM

Sean Byrne rumoured to have re-signed for Shels.

**DaveyPats** · 10/12/2011, 2:18 PM

Shane Mcfaul to FC Haka.
