Names, source, please!

I reckon the FAI more or less know the last five clubs to be added. The fact that they extended the deadline was more than likely to give these clubs a chance to meet the necessary requirements that the FAI set out. Limerick FC have confirmed they have applied again and social media posts also suggest that Trim Celtic were among those who have re-applied.

Is it the same as the book of the same name person? Yer man Lukens was ISFC and I thought had something to do with Athlone for a bit. Was afraid that Dundalk would be a target and become Irelands Armenian club.

I feel it's important to reply to this point. The St. Francis of present day bears little to no resemblance of the St Francis of FAI Cup fame and former St Pats merger. The club bears the same crest and plays out of John Hyland Park but that's about it. has a huge underage section now too.
