Any coverage of the league is good but they are no real asset imo.

Right I'm not usually one to reply to this kind of thing but I'm not having that. The incident you refer to was a column piece we did with Ger O'Brien in which he told of how he had suffered a heart condition at the start of his career. This was a the same time as the Fabrice Muamba incident so we decided to team up with CRY (cardiac risk in the young) to help promote and fundraiser for them and part of that was them publishing a press release which included our quotes (it credited us) with Ger O'Brien which we agreed to and had no problem, but then another site came along and took those quotes without crediting us so that's where the problem lay.

but you literally do that all the time.

As I've said mistakes we made in the past but if you look at our current site it's all done to the book and we are going to continue to do it the right way and prove people wrong and that's all I will say on the matter.

Your blog continues to steal photographs. I have seen your blog once since last year and the page contained a stolen image. You can't just rob something and say where you took it from. It doesn't work like that.

Might be the only person to compliment you here, but fair play with the site. The UI is top notch. Quick question though, is there any way of getting an RSS feed for it?

Mods, would it be possible to create a list of the local radio stations/internet streams for the clubs that have some sort of live match day commentary. Just off the top off my head:

Sligo: http://oceanfm.ie/
Derry City: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radiofoyle, http://live.drive105.co.uk/
Cork City: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/cork-c...atch-streaming
Dundalk: http://www.dundalkfm.com/listen-live
St Pats: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/st-pats-live-commentary

We don't have an RSS feed but if you enter your email on the site you will be signed up to our news letter. Thanks for the comments.

Just noticed that the bohs fans forum isn't available anymore, this gone long? Says domain unregistered any time I go to log into it!

Bray Wanderers just updated their website, new look and feel.First impression its a bit too commercial, although it is early days.

Sssssh!

You could get a better Joomla template for $10-$20 a year than that imo.

Who's that?

Not terrible, but not great by Bray.

There's a couple of desperately bad websites in the League of Ireland, Shamrock Rovers being one I think is absolutely shocking for the size of the club. But there are couple of excellent ones too, the likes of Limerick and Harps having two very nice ones.

Rovers don't have money for a proper website, we're too busy outbidding other clubs for squad players.

The link for the Sligo rovers forum is dead.Whats the new one ?

http://www.freeforum101.com/sligorovers/

Is there a new Shels forum as the old one has been down a while now?

New Sligo Rovers Forum, old one went down
http://sligorovers.co

Does anyone know if theloiblog will ever be back maybe Outspoken could let us know the count down has been over for a long time now

LOI Blog is Pundit Arena now.
