The teams in the draw will be Down, Derry, Wexford/Roscommon, Sligo, Kerry, Donegal, Meath and Wicklow.
Derry probably look the strongest of the bunch after today, Kerry being quite unimpressive.
Quote from: TacadoirArdMhacha on July 04, 2009, 02:00:32 PMThe papers said earlier in the week that while his minimum salary is 20k a week, he can earn up to 110k. Didn't say what he had to do to get that!
OK Owen is going to be paid but £20,000 a week basic probably isn't too dissimilar from what the likes of Macheda and Wellbck (pure guesswork though?) and if he does the business to get the bonuses he'll have been worth it. I can't really see the downside looking at the deal for Owen itself.
Quote from: Mourne Rover on July 05, 2009, 07:52:58 PMNo, Down were drawn as the home team (coincidentally 7 of the 8 R1 qualfiers got home draws). Unless the GAA decide to do a double bill somewhere, this game will be in Newry.
Venues and times are to be confirmed tomorrow. Down were out of the hat first because they came through the round one qualifiers. Laois were in a different bowl as a beaten provincial semi finalist. It could be a neutral ground, although Down obviously had to go to Portlaoise at the same stage last year.
Quote from: Chrisowc on July 04, 2009, 08:35:34 PMNot true.
He then had the opportunity to rejoin LFC but thought he would be better with an extra £20k a week in his pocket and got relegated. The little c**t has no shame full stop. United and Owen are made for each other. If you want to welcome him back to Anfield good luck to you. He has burnt all bridges end of. All he cares about his himself and his precious England caps. Oh, and his tax bill.
Also, you can't understand the hatred for Owen when he refused to play for Liverpool when he was contracted to do so? Or when he forced the club to sell him cheaply???
Quote from: Bud Wiser on July 01, 2009, 06:21:16 PMI thought O'Neill had left the GAA.
There are only two shareholders in the Gaelic Players Management Company. Donal O'Neill and a guy called David Burke own 75% and 25% of the shareholding respectively.
QuoteHow can another company apply for a Government Grant if they owe VAT, or better still, how did they get previous grants at a time when they appeared to owe vat?
The company paid Corporation Tax of €21,209. This would indicate that the company made profits of €169,672 in 2007, again a tidy sum (after directors salaries etc) to be shared among two individuals.
The accounts record the company as owing €78,590 to the Revenue as at 31 December 2007 and €52,973 as at 31 December 2006. So was this owed when they got original funding? This would normally appear to indicate an ongoing problem with VAT arrears and/or cashflow
The company had "cash in bank and at hand" of €121,125 as at 31 December 2007, which is very curious given the existence of the large VAT liability as at that date. The "cash in bank and at hand" as at 31 December 2006 was €247,626.
QuoteCiaran McArdle was appointed as director on 1 October 2008. There is no mention either of any connection between Ciaran McArdle (who is listed as an "accountant" on the B10 return filed with the CRO to record his appointment as director) and the auditors Kearney McArdle McEnaney & Company, so it can probably be assumed that no such connection exists simply because you can't be a director of a company and be the companies auditor at the same timeMcArdle has been an accountant with the GPA for a number of years. Dunno if he has any connection with Kearney McArdle McEnaney.

Darius Vassell got some reception in Turkey when he went over to sign for Ankaragucu!
