For the switch over, if it goes straight from 10 to 16, I think the fairest would be 6 up and last Premier in a play-off with 7th in Division One.

I think every club should have to send in a detailed propectus containing how they're going attract new fans, how they'll develop the ground and how they'll develop their youth teams. DVDs are optional

Clubs should be ranked on a) sporting merits b) infrastruce c) location and d) potential

I can't see how this would fail tbh

But how is that fair...if that was the case it would be an advantage to be in Division 1 for now as opposed to being a struggling Premier club(i.e Monaghan would be at an advantage over Bray by staying in a weaker league)

If it was 7 up and 1 down, it's an advantage to be in Division One. With a play-off, it's fair.

They can do what they like with the league except making it winter football.

The games at Richmond, Tallaght, Bray last week and Monday night were bitterly cold/unappetising. Anyone who was at those games and still wants Winter football needs to be condemned to a straitjacket.

I think this has held us back from getting one previously.

Just lob in a planning application for a brand new ground on the edge of town off the new road - it's never mattered to the FAI that plans are realistic!

Yes, those conditions are exactly what we want for the crucial games of the season that showcase the league!

I'd have 'kit loveliness' ahead of 'location' and 'potential' but pretty much bang on. :ball:

Bray would be relegated on "kit loveliness" alone. Walls be damned.

That's all well and good but Jackman at the moment is a 200 seat stand, a gravel bank, a huge grass bank and a smaller grass bank!!

I'm not sure I'd want Premier football there, the costs would be nuts for some games.

Should be mandatory for every club going down to the Carlisle Grounds.

Big season in First Division in 2011. Basically the 16-team Premier effectively kills the First so if you don't get in next season you could be doomed. A long-range prediction would see Waterford, Shels, Cork and Drogheda as four shoo-ins with a probably weakened MUFC, Limerick, Wexford, Harps, Athlone and Longford scrapping for the final two.

They could pick out the players maybe. First thing to be issued at the turnstiles is a high-vis jacket for the fans. They would also help in the event of drowning in the lakes of rainwater collecting in the passageway....

2 or 4 clubs can be invited from the A Championship, so it should still be able to continue.

Your celebrity friend Nick calls it a boutique seating area in an idylic rustic setting.
