Fantastic stuff. Thats why i support LoI
The last few seasons, and in fact every season has shown that the first division is far ahead of the LSL.
Of course you're going to te upsets though and just like first can beat premier, LSL can beat first. Crumlin have players who could play LOI but practically every player on Shels team would walk into Crumlin's first XI
I'm delighted for Crumlin myself
Here are the head to heads from the cup with 1ST DIV teams v LSL teams for the last few seasons
2009: Crumlin 1 1 shels
Shels 0 1 Crumlin
17/08/08: Wayside Celtic 1 – 0 Monaghan United
27/05/06: Finn Harps 1 – 0 Crumlin Utd
12/06/05: Cobh Ramblers 0-1 Wayside Celtic
Theres a trend there, personally i think it has been proven there is no gap between the top LSL sides and the 1st div, Im talking purely Lsl now and not including Msl, Aul, Lfl or any of the other associations
Proves nothing. 4 games is your sample?
I only posted the stats in response to your statement saying that results over last few years have proved 1st div is far ahead, I think you will find the results prove the opposite as above. Who cares anyway, Crumlin won Shels couldnt beat them in 2 games, they are through on merit fair play
I would have to say there is definite gap between Division One and the LSL with the MSL being somewhere in between.
This is the first season an LSL team has won the Intermediate Cup in 4 seasons and even at that Crumlin lost their 4th round game to Arklow Town and only progressed because Arklow fielded an ineligible player.
