We thank Presenter supreme, John Greene, for the following advance information on this week’s programme. (S.R.)
This week on Where the road takes me, we continue and conclude the story of Cork City Football Club. Rescued from examinership by their supporters in 2010, the club has since become a model of success both on and off the field. The manner of their rescue has since been an inspiration to much bigger clubs who find themselves in a similar situation. Next month representatives from Schalke-Zero-4 , one of the biggest clubs in Europe arrive in Cork to learn from Cork City’s supporter’s trust.
This week…………..
Vice Chairman of the board of Foras Cork City speaks about the ‘Friday night experience’ at Turners Cross, where huge emphasis is placed on accommodating families.
Former board member Niamh o’Mahony tells us about her role as CEO of ‘Supporters Direct Europe’, which helps fans to set up democratic co-operatives to gain influence in the running and ownership of their own clubs.
Striker Seanie Maguire looks back on his most memorable goal in the FAI Cup Final against Dundalk last year in the Aviva Stadium.
And………..
Mark McNulty explains why goalkeeper is a pressure position on any team, and why he is happy to see out his time at the club.
Join John Greene at 7pm on Sunday evening next on ‘Where the road takes me’ for the concluding programme on the rescue of Cork City Football Club.
