I've heard about that.

Any date yet for UCD v Limerick? It is supposed to be this weekend.

**pineapple stu** · 29/10/2008, 3:41 PM

I've asked the club; I'll let you know.

Edit - Sunday, 2pm

Kildare v Mervue confirmed tonight, anyone know the dates that the matches will be?

Who confirmed it?

That play-off may be played at the end of/after the last game of the FAI LoI First Division. It shouldn't be expected earlier, but if it's two legged than one match may be played before than. But I wouldn't bet on it.

Kildare are guaranteed to finish bottom of the First Division and Mervue are guaranteed a top four finish in the A Championship..

Now I know why you tried to keep it a secret from me.

UCD edged a close game 9-0 yesterday. The referee even blew up a few minutes early.

Bohemians P14 35pts
Finn Harps P13 25pts
Drogheda Utd P13 20 pts

Spoke to a friend from that neck of the woods today, he said Mervue are home to Kildare on Tuesday Nov 18, with the away leg the following Friday, Nov 21.
Tried to check FAI/eircom LOI site, but of course they haven't updated tables since Sept 22, another example of the contempt the FAI has for the domestic game

Those dates would make sense alright.

**dcfcsteve** · 25/11/2008, 9:09 PM

Did every side get to play 14 games in the A League groups in the end, or did a few of the outstanding ones just get binned as pointless ?

**TheBoss** · 25/11/2008, 11:10 PM

I sent an e-mail off to the LOI website still did not get a reply on the matter, it seems as though, these are final tables:

I know the season was over, but I did get 2 out of the 3 results. The Cobh Ramblers v UCD was postponed but I do not know of the outcome of the game, whether it was not be added to the table, or one of the teams given the win or both a draw.
