Is this just your opinion or is it a rule for A league football that we cant field a youth team ?

Just my opinion.

We'd win nothing with a load of youngfellas. It has to be mixed.

Ya I agree but dunno how easily we will get people to commit there is so much crap going on behind the scenes that it would discourage anybody. It is having that affect on members let alone players the place is like a looney bin and sunday will probably be just another chapter in the guide to getting nothing done for dummies. I know a good few people who arent even going and I am seriously thinking that way myself.

As for winning anything we should have a shot if we can get some expierenceed players even if its only at MSL level they have played. Hopefully that combined with youth and a desire to win will give us a shot at getting back into the first division

If Dave Hill is the manager we can be sure he will put a good team together.
The committee is a voluntary one and needs a break from attack after attack.
After all they got us the New Dressing Room complex , the New Stand, New Floodlights and got the pitch up to Premier standard.
I know we are in debt but the committee have told us they have a solution so lets give them a chance.

well actaully they were grants and the only way to get grants is to have your club run properly, have your paper work in order, and have your tax clearance cert, which we did for the last 3 years, 2 years we were considered good enough to be premier clubs

two reasons were in this mess,

1 players were paid to much

2 the clubs name was dragged through the mud for 12 months, alienateing the club to local supporters, and the knock on affect was less revenue entering the club,

this is a debth that accumulated over 3-4 years, and the thing people dont seem to realise is that other clubs have done the exact same as us, but the difference is they got together and helped there club, Athlone, Rovers, Sligo, Cork, and Shelbourne, all of which had debths equal to or more than ours,

The above is my understanding as well. But I am not close to the scene.
Its not easy to run a successful League of Ireland team ( winning the league 2007). But when you have to run a bar business and a massive building project at the same time it takes some doing.
This by a voluntary committee holding down day jobs. Surely they must get some credit.

Brilliant reply.
I pushed the ball to far ahead and got blown away in the tackle.
Ouch.

No matter what is on the agenda certain people will have to throw in their two pence worth as usual,but back to your pt DR we know where we are and lets try to get our selves out of this mess before the gates are locked for real this time.
