    Can you give us a bit more detail ... what are you after? Is it sponsorship? Investment or how clubs manage their finances?

    There are a few posters on here that work in that industry, should be able to sort you out alright. When do you have to hand it up or do you need all the info a good bit before then.
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    That was from a fanzine article we published a few months ago. It's in the queue to be uploaded onto our website so hopefully the webmaster (who posts here) will get it up soon. If you give me your e-mail I'll forward on the original copies of the accounts.

    Good luck, particularly in the area of wages and transfer fees.

    You'll find a huge disparity between reality and official documents (eg tax returns and audited accounts) I would imagine.

    TV money is brutal ... its €5000 a home game and €2500 an away game, there might be a bit more to the in's and out's of it but that is basically it.

    I'd suggest asking RTÉ for more exact figures etc.

    Lads, can anyone help him out on the rest ??
