Does anyone here know whether Wexford Youths and Limerick 37 will be Football Manager 2008 seeing as they are new clubs.
Being a d yoi am worried that they will not include our players as they are ametuers and they will have a greyed ouy squad.
Anyone got any info on this?
Cheers!

It's actually happening!!! Media notice from the FAI!!!
Might actually pop down there on Monday?
FAI EIRCOM LEAGUE OF IRELAND TO FEATURE IN FIFA 08,
EUROPE’S BIGGEST SELLING FOOTBALL GAME
The Football Association of Ireland and Electronic Arts (EA) will join forces to make a very exciting announcement in relation to the FAI eircom League of Ireland at a photocall in Meeting House Square, Temple Bar, Dublin 2 on Monday 11th June at 2.00pm.
News that the FAI eircom League of Ireland will feature for the first time in FIFA 08, Europe’s biggest selling football videogame, will be confirmed at the photocall.
FAI eircom League of Ireland players will be present at the photocall, including Liam Kearney, (Cork City), Kevin Hunt (Bohemians), Pat McCourt (Derry City), Shane Robinson (Drogheda United), Alan Murphy (Galway United), Aidan Price (Shamrock Rovers) and Joseph Ndo (St. Patrick’s Athletic).
Fran Gavin, Director of the eircom League of Ireland will also be present at the photocall.
I reall think this is all because of the FAI controllin the league now. And if its gonna be the full Premier League, then why wouldn't it have the kits as every other league in the game have their kits.
Where did that come from Solar?
Not up on the FAI site at all.
Interesting...
So UCD, Sligo, Bray, Waterford and Longford weren't invited then. First steps towards a breakaway 7-team Premier Division? :eek: :)
EDIT: Ah I see it says "including". :o
Still, the media is clearly on board with the idea that nobody cares about those five teams.
That was a media notice from the FAI, just heard it on FM 104 also, top sports story!!! I think it was just a sort of media invitation so expect the official launch on monday!!
Anyone going to pop down to it??
I'm excited.
What's the usual release date, September?
I'm hoping for an area-specific front cover. Messi, Kaka, Ronaldinho, Klose, Gamble.
:cool:
Any news on whether it is all 22 league clubs or just the Premier? I can't see them putting the First Division in it tbh.
I'd say you're out of luck harps. I don't even think the Bundesliga and Spanish leagues have the second tier in it.
did the gaa ever get their game or did ea decide it was too complicated? looks like the LOI beat them to it anyway :o)
I heard it was woeful.
Gaelic Games got an awful press.
I didn't think it was that bad.
Would love a hurling game.
it was a cheap conversion of an aussie rules game. they hadn't even bothered changing some of the rules.
