Will any club get demoted or not start the season because can't get licence?
e.g. Premier club get relegated cos no Premoier licence, 1st division club drops out of league cos no 1st division licence...

Of course every club will eventually get a licence! It is all one big joke. If you look back on last season, I'm not talking on a financial or admistrative level, how some clubs reached the standards on he infrastructure criteria is a mystery.
The only clubs who will really push the thing during the appeal is the clubs competiting in Europe. After all the league itself has that will decide on the others not the licence committee and does anyone realisticly think that any club will be kicked out?
Because the FAI and Government never provided the promised (when the licencing was being proposed and passed) grants to carry out the work.Quote:

Totally agree. Don't understand it myself. If they get one, then ANYONE could get oneQuote:

how they intend clearing their tax bill and back money situation is the bit that mystifies me
pats wil be in the same boat tax wise
exactly.
Fine them both for not paying their debts. Giving them another creditor to ignore is far harsher than relegating them.... :rolleyes:Quote:

Making the whole process void or you could call it an empty threat!Quote:

That's why we're the two clubs in most bother. I'm sure the FAI will bottle it and issue licences on appeal although I'm praying that they refuse a licence to the chancers currently masquerading as SRFC.Quote:

From what I've read on your mb, to me it seems the only option - leave Maguire, Duncan et al to get into bed with property developers and wallow in debts of their making. You surely wouldn't be waiting that long to replace the current users of the name in the league with no millstones around your neck....Quote:
