Sure they do that every year. How hard is it to sort out licencing by year end and release fixtures then. It's pathetic.

DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
Im worried for Bohs, of course. Why do you think i might not be? However, i dont really give a toss what it means in terms of Nutsy/Heary and next season as i dont want either Nutsy or Heary at Dalymount next season. Nutsy has been linked with the Motherwell job too by the way.
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
How eloquent. Huzzah.
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
Derry City were never relegated, they were thrown out of the league and ceased to exist in order for a new Derry City to re-emerge debt free. The Derry City that won the FD this season is a new club disguised under the old name like the Cork City you'll see in 2011. The FAI facilitated their bypass of the A Championship in the exact same way as Cork City FORAS Co-Op.
The Leinster Senior League needs a strong Bohemians
SkStu, I see you on the bohs forum accusing some of us dear rovers "FANS" as suggesting the deadline is something to do with Bohs mid-January promise.
The reason they chose 21 days to be paid their debts is because a s.213 winding up due to inability to pay debts as they fall requires a creditor to have a debt greater than €1,300 that isn't paid within 3 weeks of demanding it in writing. The two players would have sent a formal written request a couple of days ago to start this statutory clock ticking and ensure they get their money. Bohs releasing a statement is saying they'll have the money in mid-January seems to basically be a holding statement, acknowledging they have to pay the debt by (roughly) the 11th of Jan or they'll be considered very likely for liquidation by the courts. In other words "we're good for it, just give us up until the deadline to try and get cash from somewhere"
New Limerick might not have skipped a league but they were facilitated. New Derry and New Cork were facilitated as well as the FAI wants clubs from these regions.
Personally I think an opportunity was lost to promote the A Championship. I would agree both clubs should have been entered at that level. It would have left a more even split league of two divisions of 10. I'd like an expanded league but when the Drog's are talking about possibly joining the A Championship and other clubs futures looks dicey, I'd have to question should there be a reduction in the number of clubs instead of looking to go the other way?
The Derry and Cork (and Limerick) option of folding and reinventing themselves debt-free isn't available to Bohs as they own their own ground.
Well, it is available, but it would mean losing Dalymount, which I can only assume they're desperate to keep and eventually sell.
A transient, horrible, fantastic dream,

From which we're wakened by a friendly nudge
Of our bedfellow Death, and cry: "O fudge!"

They'll get a handy lump sum from playing in Europe for one thing.
