Kildare about to go bust?

[harpskid]

Despite the club in liquidation, without a board, it seems the PFAI think the game is going ahead. The FAI has not announced that it off either, and neither have Salthill. Who knows what they are hoping for, but KCFC is gone and the Salthill game is NOT going ahead. The club and team have disbanded.

This League is crazy.

Dear God - who do the PFAI think is going to oppose Salthill?

[gspain]

Met someone associated with Devon 10 minutes ago and he said they have NOT been told the game is off and are training tonight with a view to the game going ahead.
Is there anyone in charge out there????????????????????????????????

When are the games scheduled for?

[davidatrb]

Game is scheduled for tomorrow as far as i know.

When are the games scheduled for?

Tomorrow and I think the second leg is Friday

Personally I would love to see them go ahead since I missed saturday's game but I can't see it happening. I'd love to have a definite answer though

Game is scheduled for tomorrow as far as i know.

home or away - looked for these fixtures last week on a number of sites and couldn't find it. Thought I knew why on saturday.

Hope to go to the Kildare leg of the playoff.

[Mr A]

The Salthill leg is due to be played tomorrow night.

[davidatrb]

Away in Galway on Tuesday. Then in Kildare on Fri/Sat I would have imagined. But as Kildare have no club, team, manager, kit etc. I doubt it will get played.

I may get my boots ready

[gspain]

Typical - can't go friday and think I just might go to a different football match on saturday.

[Mr A]

Truly this league is the greatest in the world.

[WoodquayBoy]

Fixtures were set as follows:
Salthill Devon v Kildare County, Drom, 7.45pm, Tuesday Nov 10
Kildare County v Salthill Devon, Station Road, 8pm, Friday Nov 13

Expect a huge fine for Kildare in the next disciplinary meeting.

[Kildare Lad]

Would love if the game went ahead, just to use it as one last chance to say goodbye to the club. Would be an emotional game though no doubt.

If all was well in Kildare and Derry City are relegated to the A Championship then the playoffs are not needed.
Isnt the fact that Bray are spared instant relegation not the same????

[SalvadorSanchez]

Sorry to see Kildare go this way, if the FAI are pumping €4 million into RTE to put on MNS then we need to look at other options such as internet highlights rather than putting money into RTE, after all they're not giving a good enough service and it seems to be only LOI fans that watch it anyway... which says €4 million for no benefit to the league if you ask me.... an internet highlights show sounds like the way to go if you ask me......
€4 million could have gone a long way towards stabilising alot of clubs... Kildare, Cobh, Derry etc.
Time for the FAI to have a long look at developing a strategy towards stabilising the league as a 16 or 20 team league and then putting in a North and South type feeder comp. like in England...

I'll be up around Drom tomorrow evening playing 5 a side.If Kildare are REALLY desperate for players we can stick on a jersey for them.

If all was well in Kildare and Derry City are relegated to the A Championship then the playoffs are not needed.

Derry haven't been confirmed as being relegated to the A Championship.

[pineapple stu]

They are confirmed as being kicked out of the league, though, which is the point - it's Derry who are being replaced by Salthill, and so a play-off makes no sense. kildare are reprieved from relegation the same way Bray were.

[Schumi]

There have been statements from FAI officials saying that they hope that Derry can take a place in the First Division next year so it's not cut and dried.

In reality, Derry are unlikely to still be in business for next season so it's immaterial.

[Kildareman]

Just to add to that last year we lost to Mervue in the playoff but re-entered when Cobh were denied a licence.
As of now Derry are not in the First Division.

So therefore we'll all be in Drom Tuesday night....
