Sligo have said they will be switching back to part time so they are obviously not continue on like they were.

Full time football will never work in this league, population is simply not there to support it.

The county and city of Cork should be able to sustain full time team.

Probably correct, not with the current level of spending though.

That's assuming you believe them, of course.

Though the other question is, will they be cutting back enough?

No Cobh fan has commented here so allow me to be the first.

Every Cobh fan.............well most of us are against asking the players for money. I think it's one of the worst ideas the club has ever had and it stinks of desperation and unprofessionalism.
The situation were in is embarrassing and if things keep going the way they are were going to look even stupider than we do already.
The players shouldn't have been put in this situation and they shouldn't have been asked in the 1st place IMO.
