They would but Iād say 150k would be a massive number to put on that director of rugby role. Leo Cullen wouldnt be on much more.
Wouldnāt be massively surprised all the same if they were blowing that money but Iād love to see the breakdown of it
Itās quite clear that Leinster need to move to Ulster
Itās amazing investors havenāt bought a club like cork city in soccer and just invested heavily into developing young players from 12 to under 18.
Theyād make it back in transfers over a period of time.
Leinster basically have 16 mini academies that they are pumping money into. They donāt really have to do any scouting.
It tallies too that I felt having played soccer, rugby, hurling and football as youngster. We should have been good at soccer but we were crap by 15 or 16.
There was way too many clubs and the standard was woeful.
If say come under 14 there was only 16 clubs in the whole county the standard would be much higher and players would be developing naturally.
If Iām not mistaken Leinsters full time coaches like Lancaster or whoever are coaching schools teams.
Andy Farrell was involved with blackrock too.
When I was in College myself and my housemates made a promise that if any of us ever became millionaires, weād buy Cork City and get them into the Champions League.
Would developing St. Michaels into an LOI team and then into a CL team not be the ultimate journey?
Few millionaires have tried and failed that
ā¬315 for next years season ticket is a bit muchā¦

Trying to get a bit of good news out there?
Leo would be on ā¬300k or so a year.
If the contention is they are spending ā¬2m a year on coaches then it is absolute bullshit.
Weād be realistic enough to know that Tipp is too much of a Hurling County to ever get the buy in from the general public to get it properly off the ground.
Cork has massive potential though.
No they come in and do some coaching clinics from time to time with all schools coaches.
Try being a billionaire first.
Then that.
Then youāll be a millionaire

16 quid into an intermediate club hurling game in Galway, so itās not bad if thereās a good few games.
Funny I said Iād Always help the homeless all around Ireland.
Then Iād buy a heap of show jumpers and disappear into obscurity.
Does that include the European games?
Prob not getting a ticket for Ireland rugby game for less than 125.
I
Iām on about Cork City!
