Are they gone completly or are they in the Leinster Senior League
It's a shame they are gone from the League, Great town for a weekender. Haven't heard much about them since they left the league.
I heard they were entering a team into the U-20 League which is a good sign as I think its only supposed to be Eircom League Clubs this season.
I emaield Jim Rhatigan back in january about gettign a copy ofn his book and some Kilkenny City merchandise.
He emailed me back around March/April because he'd been ill. He said the club is looking to rebuild again in intermediate football before making a return to the EL.
I think they do have some KCFC merchandise left if anyone fancies any. The money would help the club, and you'd be picking-up a bit of Irish footballing history.
Focusing on the U-20 side for the moment & looking to build from there over the next few years
Is this true?
I already have a scarf, I'd probably splash out for a reasonably priced jersey to go with my Dublin City one.
Glad to hear it. No viability in the A Championship yet I take it?
Anyone that is thinking of reviving Kilkenny City has my total support. Onwards with The Beautiful Game.
The only bit of City merchandise you'd be likely to get is either a scarf, a pin or a tie. Thats all the merchandise the club has has been selling for about the past 3 years. They haven't sold a replica jersey since the 2004 season! Last years kit was given to a local junior team who will essentially be City's feeder club for the U-20 team, so there's no chance of getting your hands on a jersey.
There was what looked suspiciously like a few replica shirts on hangers on the shelves in the 'shop' against Harps last year I thought?
That's very disappointing to hear. One of the strengths of the old set-up was that it provided plenty of scope for players to find their way into senior football from areas that may otherwise have missed out. Plenty of Kerry players in particular had spells in the EL proper with various Munster clubs (particularly Limerick!). Ball dropped by FAI.
Thinking about it I suppose the FAI/eL are hoping that the likes of Kerry, Mullingar, Castlebar, UL, Lifford etc will enter the A League instead. Still think it's a bit needless tbh (kicking the non eL clubs out of the U-20 League, not the A Championship!)
And while I wish Kilkenny City all the goodwill in the world it's farcicial that they've still classified as an eL side. :confused:
Could someone pm me the details of where I could buy said merchandise?

Hi, Dar. It's Nick from Moscow, some months ago I wrote to you about KCFC. I wonder if there are any positive news.
Could you please drop me a line at bb35@mail.ru ?
Thanks.
any news here at all is the club still in existance? u20's?
No, I read a couple of months back that they have completely gone , no under age or anything a real shame and hard to think a place as big as kilkenny with out a soccer club scary really.
