View Full Version : We Are Premier League
So it's wrong to spend a lot of money Stephen and still make a profit for the season?
Commiserations to those who missed out but this is the process the clubs voted for.

Brilliant stuff, i would have prefered if we had finished second but then again everyone knew the rules this year. The squad is going to have to improved big time to stay up if we play as we did in the second half of the season we can do it.

major reshaping of the squad is required as sooo many players cant cut or wont cut it there!

Really?
Yeah I think Inchicore is the nearest to Cork, nearer than us anyway, not sure if Tallaght might be closer

Very sad, well i suppose it must be nice having something to celebrate seeing as you wont have anything to celebrate for winning anything.
I'm very disapointed that were not going up but best of luck next year anyway Galway. Met a few of your fans last time we were over and you all seem to be sound.

i wonder if dundalk winning play-off did dey inadvertibly get us da last place which mite'nt av been giving otherwise or wud we av passed waterford and/or bray anyway??. on another note dundalk have da possibility of going to court but if im not mistaken they can take it to the FAI no problem but FIFA lawz if im not mistaken forbid teamz going outside da jurisdiction which wud lead to sanctions in europe etc... for da league, will be interesting to see wat transpires over da next few weekz

can everybody just remember that the on the field results were based on the last 5 years and not the last season. So for the last couple of seasons i know we finished a long way above dundalk. You all signed up for it all so stop the bitching but we will wave hello as we go on to play the only team in louth. by the way dufc good luck against the northern boys in the setanta cup. please beat linfield.

why should you believe it?.
An absolutely disgraceful decision. Promoting a club that spent money recklessly and could even finish in the top two. Let's see if spending money you haven't got get you anywhere in the Premier Division.
Also, let's see how the decision looks in 12 months time.
You idiot! GUFC operated with a surplus this year slashing debt by 50% these are facts. Its not the way we would have preferred to go up but the board and volunteers of all clubs knew 18 months ago what had to be done so fair deal....... if you guys are well run you might get in if Shels fail to sort their house out.....but wait a minute.....Waterford finished ahead of you guys too! Stop your moaning take it on the chin like we would have had we not got in (with the exception of Conor H i suppose!)
