LOI clubs had to commence the competion last yr before the their season started to facilitate them, DJ of Linfield always moaning about fatigue here fatigue their, why dont they give up the meaningless county antrim shield and play in a bigger competiton and stop their whinging.
I can tell you now DCFC the new club have tried to contact Linfield on 4 occassions to pay the amount owing not once after voicemail messages has a member of Linfield got back to the club. It is a publicity stunt again by the blues to make them look the good guysQuote:

Sorry, but until someone pays LFC the money they are owed, they are quite entitled to do whatever the Hell they like, including declining to accept their Invitation [sic] to compete from Setanta.
What you simply cannot get away from is that if the new guys at the Brandywell want to benefit from their predecessors' Invitation to the Setanta Ball, then they (new guys) need to pay for the predecessors' ticket. Literally.[/QUOTE]
Again you're spot on but surely you can see that Linfield are using two contradicting arguments for not wanting to play us.
On one hand they say they won't play Derry City as they owe Linfield money. Which is fair play. And then on top of that they refuse to play Derry City anyway because we're a new club. So in other words they won't play Derry City whether they get paid or not.
My own opinion is that we should not only be turfed from the Setanta but also the league. But as a Derry fan I'll take every break we're given.
It's not. They haven't suggested that themselves and Pats play out the rest of the group with our results expunged, which is what would happen in the LoI. They just said that they're not playing any more games regardless.Quote:

If that's the case, then why did Linfield report in the Cliftonvile programme that they had been approached by the Friends of Derry City and were making progress on the issue ? Why didn't they just refuse to speak with FODC and deal with the Administrators instead ? :?Quote:

Could it be the case that the FODC have muted that they will make good the difference between what Linfield get from the Administrator and what we were owed by the "old" Derry City FC?Quote:

The point stands though. You can't cry about being owed money by someone you're in contact with about that money, and then when they point out that they've been trying to contact you over it state 'oh but we'll only deal with the Administrators' over it.
Linfield trying to have everything their own way. Just another excuse for a good cry.
Who has stated "we'll only deal with the Administrators over it"?:confused:Quote:

I think it's "new" Derry City having a good cry tonight after losing their big, £50,000, pay day.
Err -y uo were the onme who asserted that arguement. Probably just more idle speculation on your part again in fairness.Quote:

As I'm sure you well know, a forum for football fans of numerous/competing clubs is often the last place worth visiting to establish facts. :)Quote:

How many times have they phoned Cliftonville? :rolleyes:Quote:

Did Cliftonville lodge the contract relating to the Celtic friendly with the administrator to establish creditor status?Quote:
