D-Day

correct me if im wrong but isnt today d-day for rovers and limerick with their appeals


does anybody know what happened?

Most likely thing (as I see it) is that they'll be let play in their respective leagues but docked three points from the offset (as has happened in other leagues in Europe). Weren't there supposed to be grants being issued long ago to help clubs reach licencing?

I think originally though there was supposed to be aid for every club - back in the day like. E22m from eircom Park was being mentioned. It's not surprising all the clubs are appealing if they didn't get the money to make the improvements. (If what I remember is true of course...)

does this mean that rovers will definitly be using dalymount

[clarke]

I was talking to a Bohs fan at work yesterday. He says that Rovers would be playing their home games in Richmond again. The exceptions would be rovers "home" games agains Pats and Bohs which would be in Dalymount to avoid trouble. Not sure how accurate this is, but the guy is well connected in bohs.

And playing Bohs four times in Dalymount is hardly going to be a pretty sight either.
