Cork City supporters call for end to dispute
Cork City Official Supporters Club have called on star player George O’Callaghan and manager Damien Richardson to resolve their differences, for the good of the club’s Champions League campaign.
“Our football club is participating in the premier club competition for football in the world, and the unnecessary and unseemly distraction of this dispute could not have come at a worse time,” said a spokesman today.
“We implore all sides to think of the bigger picture here, so that there are no further distractions from what may be another glorious chapter in the history of CCFC.
“We are appealing for common sense to prevail, and that all parties involved will come to an agreement where our full squad can train and prepare properly for the return leg of our Champions League tie against Apollon Limassol, and for our continued challenge to retain the eircom League.”
