Something that i'd imagine he looked in to at the time.
As for any supporter ownership of the club, I dont know anything beyond what was presented at the time when Dundalk FC Supporters Trust were attempting to buy the club from Gerry Matthews, the club was subsequently sold to the current owners and I was of the belief that this included a percentage sharing with the supporters trust and position on the new board. The Trust now seems defuct in all but on paper. This may not have been the final arrangement in the end but that was certainly the impression given at the time.
