Looks like we're fucked altogether.
Bankruptcy beckons, will there be a SEVCO equivalent, I dunno.

The LOI is a joke. This is not to make excuses for our situation, which is of our own making.

From millions in the bank to not a pot to piss in
I have a mate, a Paddy based in the US, who put a few quid in, he's a mate of Brian Ainscough. Seems Ainscough bought a pig in a poke, can't say more - libel and all that (the PROC being such a prominent social media site)

Oriel Park is an embarrassment, a shithole as some of you know too well from the recent years when we were slugging it out at the top.

Been there m8.

Hope the club survives

Thanks.

Historic club, stalwarts of Irish football, second most successful, etc. and so ad nauseam.
None of it makes any difference if you can't pay for the wages and electricity bill.

Lotta disgruntled "fans" bloviating on social media about the current "cowboy" owner.
I think there is more to it than that, maybe the legacy issues will be revealed in time, who knows.

What's the average home gate Bwana? (In reasonable to good times)

Touching 3,000 a few year's ago when we were flying it.
Even now it's around 2,500.

No idea how this stacks up in terms of viability, but I wouldn't think any club would be sustainable on that alone.

The LOI financial model seems to depend on getting into Europe. The prize for winning the league is laughable, something in the region of 100k afaik.

The league/fai owes us around 300k of UEFA money, to be paid at the end of the season, a wee payment on account would help, but no budge from the effers.

I wonder where it will go if/when we go bust

The owners a disgrace,as are the FAI letting a guy in who clearly didn't have the finances
He fucked up Kerry FC
And even prior to him being there the club was a joke ref facilities etc for years
Money went the wrong way
Last time up not even proper away jacks

No liquidation today apparently. Is there anything to be said for another mass? And while we're at it, does any of you have anything resting in your account? I know a man that would take your hand off for a few bob.
