"Volunteerism is the backbone of the club"

"Having the volunteers... it just means alot more to you as a player.  When you go out you know people have come in to help you... they're not getting paid for it so you know you've got a lot more to do when you go out there on a Friday night..." - Danny Murphy, Defender, Cork City FC.

"I think the cooperative model is the way forward." - John O'Sullivan, (former) Chairman, Cork City FC.

"It's our City.  It's our Club." - John Kennedy, Volunteer, Cork City FC.
