yes it is a point deduction..this happened in the 2006 season with Shamrock rovers played an inelgible player for the game against Dundalk..If my memory is corect it was 3 points they got deducted
It was a story flying around the ground in Limerick before the match started by all accounts, I couldn't get down in the end and just heard it on the radio earlier. Hopefully there'll be more about it before the end.Quote:

In all likelihood though the story was probably passed about along with the Wexford one (who did get awarded the points it seems), and probably the tales got a bit blended. It doesn't really make a lot of sense otherwise.
EIT: Both the WLR reporter and Dave Warren have just this second said that they've heard we're getting the extra two points from the Athlone match. This really needs clarification! :D
Half time 2-1 BTW.
wont happen..would be huge uproar if yous were to go up by them 2 points..Maxi would be on the war path again
Well I heard info on the Youths v L37 thing but I'm saying nothing until it is confirmed. The Waterford thing could have a significant bearing on the outcome of the promotion race. Not like the FAI to make a firm decision!!!!
:D
They should keep the Christmas tree in the attic for a while yet just in case!
Would the increase in the price of petrol affect that:DQuote:

Grincell on for Gary Dunphy (??!!) at half time at Jackman. edit: Yep, tactical switch apparently.
If anyone except me is interested (unlikely) it's 0-2 in Kildare. Darren McKenna with both.
Yep Mr Longfordian, I'm well interested in that oneQuote:

A certain Paul Shiels it was :eek:Quote:

That's the rule as far as I know it as well, unless it has been changed recently.Quote:

The FAI confirmed the 3-0 win for Wexford this evening. Nothing about Waterford/Athlone as yet.
3-1 limerick paul walsh pen
There you go then, we got magically awarded them as well amid the Chinese whispers.
Paul Walsh just put Limerick 3-1 up from the spot. :mad:

I see.
We're after passing them on to Limerick anyway.
4-1 now, Limerick rampant, game is over. :mad:
5-1 now. Great stuff :D
Did the commentator just say Paul McTiernan is one of the young guys to get his chance?:confused:
City 1 Notorious Bookclub Boys 0

Both teams visited Flancare recently and Limerick genuinely impressed me a good deal more even though Waterford beat us 3-0 and Limerick 2-1. Limerick are playing really good football at the moment.Quote:

Looking forward to hear Cronin's weekly post-match rant in a few minutes :cool:
Dundalk know all too well. Beaten us 2-0 twice in last two meetings. We also lost 4-1 in Limerick last year so we know Waterford's pain :oQuote:

GUFC 4-0 Bray
Just 2 points behind harps now with the game in hand !
I would just like to also thank bray for giving us Jay O'Shea !
That's a terrific win. ( keeps Bray in the Zone going into the last 3 weeks of the season.)Quote:

on behalf of all Bohs fans everywhere, regardless of race, colour or creed, i would like to categorically state how utterly proud we feel as a club and as human beings to have such a record against Derry City FC. You are a class team, a real cut above the rest and we are just thankful to have taken two points from you.Quote:

Who knows maybe we can even get a nice big drum to bang, or is that just hoping for too much, too soon?
All hail Derry, easily the best team this year.
Aw thanks, you really didnt have to say that......Quote:
