Revenue in bid to wind up Limerick FC

The High Court has adjourned an application by the Revenue Commissioners to wind up Limerick FC, a League of Ireland Premier Division club. The Collector General has petitioned to have Munster Football Club Ltd, trading as Limerick FC, wound up following an alleged failure to pay a tax demand issued in mid-September for outstanding PAYE and PRSI contributions. The company's registered address is listed at Kirby O'Sullivan Sports, Social & Business Park, Bruff, County Limerick. During a brief mention before Mr Justice David Keane, counsel for the Collector General informed the court that both parties had agreed to adjourn the petition for three weeks. The court will revisit the matter once Limerick FC's senior men's team completes their remaining fixtures, including a promotion and relegation play-off against Donegal side Finn Harps.
