That's exactly what I said - FAI told GUST not to bother cos it wouldn't be accepted!

You replied before I edited the post probably, but what I'm saying is that GUST could not apply. You need permission from the FAI to apply basically. Anyway, I'll leave it be.

I have heard friday for the Star and none from the Mirror this year.

What's the FAI's problem with GUST. With the FAI having gone all out in the past to ensure senior football remained in Limerick and despite demoting Cork and Derry for well known reasons, there was positive noise from the FAI for having Cork and Derry involved in the league.

Something similar in the Limerick Leader. The first time there was ever anything like this for us.

Nobody wants another "people whining about people whining about GUST" thread so PM me if you're bothered.

It's great when local papers get behind their clubs. Are many other clubs getting this type of coverage?

Seems to be some decent coverage on indo site?

After reading backpage few people about here may have to revise their predictions - now Derry have retained Stephen McLaughlin :(

Harps usually get a decent bit of coverage out of the Donegal News and the Donegal Democrat. Most years there would be a squad poster in the paper around the start of the season with fixtures pull-outs and such.
Not really much in the way of magazines though.
