I deleted it after deciding that its just as bad really, well not quite - but its still crappy, it was just another idea that was popping around in the mind of alot of people.

Don't think this has ever happened in Ireland, has it? Or did Drumcondra pull out mid-season?

Aldershot and Maidstone went bust in England in the early 90s - all results annulled. That's about the only local precedent I can think of.

Just remember when they sell Tolka at least they will get something you will get nothing and will be on your merry way to beg Pats or Bohs to let ye dig up their pitch with some hoofball.

Tolka isn't theirs to sell and who begs to get into the stadium of sh*te or dalyer/castleknock:D

Thats a good enough reason :rolleyes:

So when you finally get to Tallaght, I'll dust off my walking sticks, stumble down and hope a goal is still worth 3 points...

Of the top few, Derry profit most out of this. Gutted.

Gutted for DC's fans obviously, always a sad sight when something you love dies. Furious at whats happening as a result though, absolutely livid. Shels and Cork literally get punished for winning games.

If you are going to come up with a scenario that favours Shels, at least try and find one where every team plays the same number of games.

As said above, expunging either the part completed second series DC results or all their results from both series are the only viable options.

ANd if you chose the former option, you get into another home and away row (as there already is with three series of games).

Ha, I'll give you that. Maybe Shels & Home Farm/ The FC formerly know as Dublin City could ground share out in Santry?

Ha! True, I'm all over the place, I'm understandably upset by this, we played them, beat them, see nothing for it! First round should stand, that better???

Apologies for not seeing past the steam shooting out of my ears!

None of us will ever all be happy. As it stands, if favours Derry more than anyone. Others are disgruntled. If it changes, Derry fans become disgruntled.

It's a horrible situation. I'm sure if it had worked the other way and you lost 3 more points than Cork or Shels you'd be frustrated and angry too. It's only natural - feel like we've just beed robbed.

Dub Cit are gone and Shels fans upset - is there any down side to this?
I suppose we loose a few bob in rent. :(

The Revenue Commissioners have done more for this league in one year than the FAI and the Clubs put together in 50 years.

Rogue clubs (Scumrocks, Shels, Bohs and Cork) straightened out severely.
Makeweight nobodies eliminated.

Screw Niall Quinn I say let them decide who is in the superbundespremierliga A.

I was trying to involve poor old (the FC formerly known as) DC in the thread, it being about their dissolution & all. I do think Shels are on the way out there though.
