City back in court as Farrelly seeks wind-up order

CORK CITY return to the High Court this morning as former player and Irish international Gareth Farrelly brings a winding-up petition against the Leesiders.

The ex-Everton, Aston Villa and Bolton Wanderers midfielder was awarded €36,000 in a previous settlement case but has yet to be paid.

Farrelly joined City at the beginning of 2007 but was unable to play for the first six months of his contract due to FIFA’s three-club rule.
