How about, us lot all email EA sports or konami and lobby them to include them (if they haven't for this season, it's too late now) for next season. If they got a reasonable amount of mail they might consider it seriously...?

I think thats been done

I remember getting a pro-evo [i think] game out of Xtravision about 10 years ago and it had Cliftonville fans all wegging Ulster* flags. It raised a chuckle in our house although admittedly we didn't get out that much.

*colloquialism for current flag used to represent Norn Iron football teams at international level.

It's definitely going to be included in FIFA 08, presuming they are able to get all the necessary information.

I was manager of Linfield for 7 years.

Won the league 7 times, the Irish Cup 4 times, the CIS cup 6 times & Co. Antrim Shield 3 times.(obviously the names of the CIS cup and Co.Antrim Shield are different in the game).

I won the Setanta cup 5 times. 4 in a row.

I qualified to the 2nd round of the Qualifiers the first 3 seasons, Then Qualified to the 3rd round. The next season I got knocked out in the 1st round then the last season I qualified to the Champions League proper, Knocking out Bayer Leverkuson in the 3rd round. Lost 2-1 away and won 1 nil at home, Leverkuson got 2 players sent off in the first 15 minutes.

I picked up 4 points in the group stages on my way out.

I left Linfield with 9million in the bank and a good young team.

I now manage Nottingham Forest in the Championship. Half way through the league I'm sitting 7th 12 points behind 2nd placed Birmingham.

Anyways. It would be good if we had an all island league in Fifa.:)

Are you the biggest show off to roam the earth ever?

Yes you are

Yeah I've made Dundalk on it myself. It's never the same though as the team being in the game properly.

EA Sports were looking for player information from the clubs. Don't know if First Division clubs were contacted though.

Still wouldn't buy it over pro evo. Good for the league though.

Content be ripped out of it and put into a pes patch so its all good if true. All EA news burts on it only have who is on the box and nothing about the game itself.

Not to be rude but, what authority?

EA sports have not made any announcements regarding the new leagues they are adding. they have only confirmed the leagues that have been in previous versions. they did mention there will be more leagues but no info on which. I would be very sceptical of Eircom league being in FIFA 08

Sorry guys just saw post above this!

i hate fifa havent played it once since 2002, pure pro evo man but if they do bring out Irish clubs i will definitly buy it, even if rams aren't in it, if we dont support it they wont do Irish clubs again, or expand it to First division clubs, doesn't matter anyway Rams will be in Fifa 09 either way!!
