Longford deducted six points

[Bald Student]

The same as what I thought of Shels' and Shams' punsihments.

The FAI had to do it. If anything, they should have stepped in years ago when the problems would have been smaller.

I'm nearly sure this was posted yesterday. Where did the other thread go, or am I going mad?

If they're going to be so strict about the rules Longford shouldn't have been allowed into the Premier.

You now have another year of Fcukin shambles.

This didn't happen over night for Christs sake. A few of us were up there for pre season and the place practically oozed the fact that they were skint

FAI decisions so random, so stupid

Sduffy is constantly having digs and snide remarks at UTD both here and on the Dundalk MB.

It was only the last day pointed out in another thread his obsession with us.

Nevertheless..best of Luck against Kilkenny City tonight.:)


there giving us a ''dig-out''??.... didnt your momma ever tell ya you cant ''dig-out'' ...hence the expression ''trying to dig your way out of a hole''

dependent on the FAI??.... sure it was the AIG who handled all that not the FAI..... your jokes are just as good as your research!!


could you possibly be more bitter stephen


Wow. The FAI deducted points from Longford to give Galway United a dig out again.


Longford fans must be really peeved about this because they probably didn't deserve the points reduction but understand that it must be done for Galway United's survival in the Premier Division.


Jumping Jesus lads that was ridiculously easy for him

One throw-away comment and the whole city rises from it's bottled water to have a go??

Now I wouldn't even pretend to know the first thing about "WUMMING" or whatever it's called by the "tecno-heads" but I'd suggest that the :p 's in his post imply that it was a joke designed to get a rise out of you.

My advice is to not rise to it. Maintain your dignity Galway

licesing requirement are due in three parts december, jan, and march which creates problems licensing its self is fine its the implementation of it that is wrong. one financial return every december should surffice and if anything changes during the season the club should be legally obliged to inform the LC or face fines,points deductions or expulsion. at least then we could go through a season without the dreaded astricts

Is there more to consider in all this than the stupidity of people running vrious clubs? Virtually every EL club has run into some sort of financial crisis in the last few years and i think its fair for supporters to ask where all the money is going? Presumably its going on players salaries. If clubs are running themselves into the ground by competing to match the salary demands of players and their parasite agents then i think this should be exposed and the FAI should be introducing realistic salary caps.

in fairness we give out when they dont implement rules and we give out when they do.dont blame them for taking action but six points seems a bit much.
Lucky to get that low IMO.
