Don't worry about it. Good luck. I'm looking forward to visiting Limerick for the first time in our promotion campaign in the First next season.;)

I'd much rather draw a Premier Ucd in the cup :(

Can someone clarify what clubs did not get a Premier License, there was 5 mentioned but I heard no names.

Well we didnt apply for a Premier so Mons are one that didnt get one!

First Division Licences awarded to:

Athlone Town
Monaghan Utd
Finn Harps
Kildare County
Kilkenny City

I dont know if we applied for a Premier licence or not.
I thought we would have seeing as we have the facilities etc but then again they knew a while ago
that they wouldnt be in the new Premier so they mightn't have bothered looking for that licence

I think you can only pass or fail the licence you apply for, you cant apply for A and get B or vis a vera

While I hope your right Terry I think that the club have relied on that particular opinion for far too long now. There's an attitude of 'the league needs Limerick' that has sometimes held back real growth. There's no way that a club from a smaller town could have gotten away with treading water for as long as we have.

Your second point is of course spot on

As for your first point we both know it's been far more than an attitude that has held us back ;) :ball:

For sure but it certainly hasn't helped either. And whatever about the current administration that, if anything, has tried to run before walking, the previous incumbents were quite happy to thread water.

As opposed to doing what??

Seriously slk, you know more about the circumstances than to come out with stuff like that :ball:

And yet I stand by it. The club made no effort to even improve it's lot at the time and had Danny Drew not emerged nothing would have changed on that score. We had well meaning people with nil vision in charge.

Nil vision, nil money, nil interest, nil facilities, nils flying all over the place really :ball:

It seems the fact that the club was somehow kept running for the past twenty years is finally coming home to roost :ball:

Waterford United have got a premier licence
