    It's been a long time since I posted so consider that please...

    I think that as a community, League of Ireland fans have to shoulder the fact that there was no real realism in regard to what was going on. I know that as Longford Town supporters the questions started to flow when we hit the fan... That is to say that the majority of supporters asked how this could happen as opposed to where is the money coming from. I suggest it's something which came from all other areas of life.

    I feel sorry for Derry City fans today because they got caught out. In one manner or another every club had an opportunity to cheat the system in order to remain competitive. Some in small ways, others in deceitful ways.

    As a Town supporter, I maybe obvious but I always hated the way supporters of other clubs who spent time in European competition chastised us for letting the league down. All some cared about was co-efficients. Something tangible to support the pie in the sky notions that this league offered something superior to what it actually is.

    Shiba apologise for earlier no offence was meant at you, just annoyed the way our club is run but now also the way the league works. Delaney should go now before he is humiliated even more in the courts by DCFC. Good luck Sligo in the cup final do the North West Proud

    No offence taken even do it does seem I was gloating was meant rally upset for the fans of what was a great club but the rest is what I see.
    Agree Delaney is a joke! Dont think the fai think anything out.From the cup final been held in 6000 seater stadium,( cant figure out for the life of me who they hoped was in the final,to the running of the league. Other clubs are in a mess and been let roam free.;They have no real interest in the league imo!
    Thaks for the good wishes and hope we bring it home too be good for the Northwest!
    Till d End!

    With Kildare reportedly gone and Derry probably heading for the A Championship, will this year's A clubs be up for election to fill the last slot? Salthill-Kildare is probably off at any rate.

    I think the FAI are safe from legal action no matter whether they have a case or not. Wellvan will most likely be liquidated before they ever get near court.

    I'm sure Tralee Dynamos would jump at the opportunity to take a First Division spot.

    Mr A why would they ask to do an underhand deal ( deal to keep hush about other clubs doing the same ) in exchange for keeping a first division place. I would say it could be Dave Rodgers the player in question whos gone to the FAI having his final say. He left Derry in bad animosity for being accused of thieving, and only played a few ganes for us

    In all fairness how much longer can the powers at be in the FAI put up with the shambolic work that is coming from Gavin and Delaney, surely there are 2 more competent individuals who could do a better job and not cause so much bloody trouble and not make this country's professional league look like a bloody soap opera!
