Tax bill ‘cleared’, but City takeover still in balance

CORK CITY last night claimed that the six-figure tax bill which has threatened the club’s future has been ‘cleared’.

But there is still no indication that a proposed takeover has moved any closer to being realised.

The club’s representatives are now reportedly attempting to bring forward the deferred High Court hearing aimed at winding-up the club in order to speed up the proposed takeover being facilitated by the Quintas Group on behalf of Peter Gray, Michael O’Connell and FORAS, the Cork City Supporters Trust.
