    The rumour is our board are about to resign, the players are going to admit to bonuses but not dual contracts, Paul Diamond and Hugh McDaid are returnng and we will be in the 1st division next season

    Surely Tralee Dynamos, Castlebar Celtic, Tullamore Town, FC Carlow and Cobh Ramblers (in that order) would all have the right to apply for a First Division licence ahead of Derry City? Even Kildare County actually, as unlikely as that might be.

    You'd have thought so but the FAI were being very vague as to what level they could come back in at.
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

    Darren Quigley on Radio Ulster:

    "I had to go to the FAI". "The FAI are my SIPTU".
    "I don't know how anyone can admit to the FAI that they have two contracts when they don't know they have two contracts". [referring to himself]

    Considering they've to reapply for entry, I don't think the FAI have any choice here if the A league sides want entry to the First Division, the bigger question would be if any of them are ready, and I would think not.

    By all accounts Tralee are anxious to step up and are building a stand, but I'm not sure if it would be ready in time.

    Wexford hadn't built their stand by the start of their first season in the league though, right?

    They might mysteriously fail on some licensing criterion or other.

    Don't worry, there's a good chance they'll be repossessed.

    Quigley on RTÉ said he went to Fran Gavin after he couldn't get in touch with Pat McDaid about wages. Said what he was owed, Gavin said that's not what you should be getting paid.

    On BBC News: Directors held a meeting this evening. The meeting has broken up and another meeting will be held tonight.

    Big meeting tonight is the word.

    Is Darren Quigley the only player is LOI history to be failed to be paid by two clubs at the same time? By the loan agreement, Fingal allegedly paid Derry 75% of wages, which the club pocketed and then failed to pay Darren his 'actual' amount.

    As has been said, you couldn't make it up.
