The rules are drawn up by the committee who then ask the relevant body to invite participants. No consultation needed with anybody - its not as if clubs are affiliated with the Setanta Cup the way they are with the League or FAI
Its a big blow to Shelbourne Football club and especially there fans that they pulled out of Setanta...
Plus it's an Invitational Tournament - it's up to the committee who they inviteQuote:

But sure I could change that now if I pleased...hardly a hard source to rely on!!Quote:

In May 2005, a group of Shels fans held up a banner with "J€A£OU$" written on it because they had signed 3 Bohs players they couldnt afford. I wonder who is Jealous now.
If what I am hearing is true, next season's fixture list wont contain Shelbourne. I for one wont shed a tear although I will regret not having one last chance to gloat.
As Bohs Partisan says elwewhere, a few more team north and south of the border and we'll have an all-Ireland league before w eknow it, bring it on.
Clear as...Quote:

A dead heat:)
Shels wont be stripped of the title..Quote:
