    It looks like BS. No record of such a team playing in the league never mind winning it!!

    Isn't this a Portugese ground? The name of the club escapes me. I think it could be Victoria Setubol? If not they have a great ground for a team in the Kerry League!

    This rings a bell.

    A similar story like this appeared a few years ago.The team was called the Fermoy Flyers or something and a pic showed a decent stadium that could hold maybe 10,000.
    Somebody has way too much time on their hands making up this crap.

    Rings a bell alright - wasn't there something about how they were going to join the league and take it by storm?

    Truth.

    It's BS. The stadium is called the Estadio da Bonfim, holds 25,000 and is the home of Vitoria Setubal from Portugal.

    BS. In Killarney you have two clubs based in the town, Celtc and Athletic. Both have very good facilites (although no stand yet) and Athletic hold a very successful annual 7 a side competition in july/august which generates massive local interest.

    And given that the First Division didn't exist until 1985 it'd be a fair achievement for them to have won it twice in the fifties. Specially as they'd have been in the Premier for the next season!
    Good effort, but too many silly mistakes.
