Trouble ahead for League?
soccercentral has learned that the postponed AGM of the eircom League will open as arranged on Saturday 21st Feb but will almost immediately be adjourned.
A spokesperson has confirmed this course of action and where this leaves the future of the eircom League for season 2004 is the burning question.
It is understood that UEFA club licensing is once more the main issue and until such time as appeals have been decided no fixtures can be arranged.
As it stands, the two clubs in membership of the league in season 2003 who were unsuccessful in attaining a licence, while others granted a first division licence will appeal.
It is believed that only Dublin clubs and those with Dublin based delegates will attend the meeting at Citywest Hotel to ensure a quorum and that the order of business will be suspended and a new date proposed.
