Pat Oā€™Sullivan has pumped in a huge amount of his own money into Limerick. He gets fuck all credit for it, heā€™s hated in some parts.

He must conservatively have put in 3 or 4m

23

I was talking to a fella at the weekend and he reckons 7 or 8m

they were spending savage money a month on buses out to Bruff for all the underage teams

24

Nah up to 10 now

25

I heard 3 . something million

26

Correct

27

He might get more kudos if he stopped giving so much to himself :see_no_evil:

No big money to be made in LOI ,city are fan owned/ managed little leftover

Thereā€™s no money at all to be made sure. But thereā€™s been savage waste at Limerick as well. Personally I donā€™t think they use the little money they have very well. No promotion of the games etc. Rovers probably the only club with a sustainable business model and even then they were lucky to be handed a stadium. But to be fair to them theyā€™ve been the best to embrace the academy model, get the community involved, promote themselves etc as well.

Limerick FC need to rebrand.

Change to green and hop on the goodwill off the back of the GAA bandwagon.

Limerick GAA already has a football team in the depths of mediocrity

32

they are a good bit away from being mediocre

I didnt want to upset the West Linerick brigade

City are in the black also,no money worries,though budget tighter this year FORAS runs a tight ship,fair dues my boy and 60+ made the long hike to Sligo yesterday,not back until 2.45,+city academy up n running including under 13s

36

Good idea, weā€™re lucky in Cork most ppl following all the sports,but a huge deficit in numbers attending Cork footballers, Limerick soccer fans will turn out now thatā€™ thereā€™s a new business model

37

In years to come thereā€™s going to be a ā€œPrime Time Investigatesā€ about the money wasted at the club in recent times.

I donā€™t think these new ā€œinvestorsā€ are the great white knights that some would have you believe eitherā€¦

I dont see what possible upside there is for them? Itā€™s not like they can bleed the club of assets.

Letā€™s just say in a cash business a football club wouldnā€™t be the worst way to dispose of certain monies.
