Winding-up order against Cork City adjourned

The High Court has adjourned for one week an order for the winding up the holding company of Cork City Football Club brought by one of the club's ex-players, former Ireland international Gareth Farrelly.

Mr Farrelly, with an address at Birkdale, Southport in the northwest of England has claimed that he is owed €36,570 by the club. Mr Farrelly has brought the petition on the grounds that the club is insolvent and unable to pay its debts
