There has been reputable links posted throughout this thread over the last few days. As far as I can see from reading previous posts, no one has made any accusations that haven't been backed up by reputable links.

Yeah Eir show some games alright. Hopefully the club will feature altho the problem with that is will it stop some people from actually going to the game if they know its live on tv? Its catch 22

Looks like the mainstream media is ignoring this don’t be distracted by the attention seeker on here we have bigger fish to fry . Please spread the word . Thank You . I’d like to think most us rational people have morals and will do the right thing on this occasion .

There's something about wfc on the front page of the news and star but i think you have to guess what they're talking about and post your answers into them

Afraid there’s no money from live matches on tv. (RTE anyway) It’s the FAI who benefit. Reduced attendances and they usually fcuk around with KO time.

European games are the only place clubs can earn TV money. The changing of KO times is a big draw back to live games.

Had the usual few scoops every Monday night with my friend (25 years of ****e talk in a bar corner) who has been pretty bang on about life and the on goings of WUFC and now WFC. Initially I was very much against the signing but I’m actually ok with it now. People were/are crying out for a statement but actually this won’t happen under any circumstances due to previous legal actions/reasons. Even though Izzy was convicted of sexual assault, what happened could have happened to any of us at his age. its the legal system at fault here if what ive been told is true. Don’t want to say too much more been honest but mods can PM if they require further info.

Blaming the legal system for ones actions is an absolute cop out. Feel free to pm me but I doubt the details you have withheld will change my opinion on this.

Different facts appear to be emerging about this case tonight would advise mods to maybe DELETE theses posts and start again .

Can you point us in the right direction other than the ones that have been printed in the press which pretty much condemn him?

Smell the glove

He's right, certain parts of the reported case are completely wrong.

I was on the WFC football group on fb. What a bunch of children on that site. Accusing each other of all sorts. "He started it first" was one of the comments I seen. Sad when you think about it.

The facts are that this is an ongoing court case and shouldn't be discussed online. People can be held liable for what they post.

Pop up shop will be in the RSC from Friday on for a few hours each weekday. Launch of the new yellow kit on Friday and an online shop will be launched on Monday where I'm told all the gear except the home kit will be available. Great to see the blues doing this before Christmas.

Will it be at a reasonable price?
