    Let's have a mad guess.

    This has to be the hardest prediction thingy in years.
    Who will be in what division?

    At the minute I just can't decide, you have:

    Premier Division pretty much safely guranteed:

    UCD
    Shamrock Rovers
    Sligo Rovers
    St Pats
    Dundalk
    Drogheda United

    First Division Pretty much guaranteed:

    Finn Harps
    Monaghan United
    Longford Town
    Athlone
    Waterford United
    Limerick
    Mervue United
    Wexford Youths

    In Limbo: this is the fun one (obviously not so much fun for the supporters of respective clubs):

    Bohemians - It couldn't be taken seriously without them surely?
    Cork City - If you don't know why, you have 90 pages of soap opera gold.
    Derry City - pretty sure first division
    Bray Wanderers - could yet be promoted
    Shelbourne - Same as Bray maybe?
    Galway United - lots of Rumours floating about.
    Salthill Devon - will they be in the first division or stay in A League? If they don't go in, who takes their place? Tralee Dynamo's (or Kerry County), Cobh Ramblers, FC Carlow, Tullamore, etc.
    Sporting Fingal - Following an intense discussion with Pineapple-stu

    Lots of clubs biting the nails waiting for the licences to be handed out.

    Don't forget Sporting Fingal didn't get a Premier Division licence last year because of Morton. I agree I think they're safe with their promotion, but it'd be nice to make the "In limbo" list even longer.

    Interesting rumour of no compo being agreed between the tangerines and the oranges. Fenlon will walk in that scenario, which asks plenty of questions about his bonus payments. How will that effect the SCP?

    Limerick will be in the premier in 3 years. You heard it here first folks. Make it your signatures if you like, to keep my statement in the public domain. 3 years, maybe less

    What about your ground? Do you plan to be in the Markets Field by then?

    These little details are insignificant.

    I don't think it is, remember this is the FAI's circus of a league and going on precident from the Drogheda and Cork sham from last season I would be certain Bohs and Cork City will be playing in Premier Division this season no matter what unless a seriously dodgy Derry City-esque scandal arises. Sporting Fingal will play at Morton because the FAI have invested too much energy in them to shaft them at this particular stage and the new Derry Franchise are all but guaranteed First Division football. Nothing seems to be substantive on the 'rumours' about Galway and they have a big plus that their participation in the PD will be important geographically so I reckon the lineup of both leagues will remain as planned for this season coming.

    I'd say Bohs, Bray and Fingal are fairly safe for the Premier, couldn't comment on Galway but more likely than Shelbourne. Derry and some Cork set-up will probably be in the First Division, if Salthill don't go in, I'd say only Cobh could replace them/be interested at such short notice.

    Seemingly it's a city and they make considerably better football DVD's than Dundalk.

    rumours about Galway was that there they will be in the first division but there was a small piece in one of the tabloids today that Galway Utd will be ready to get a premier division licence. I cant remember the circumstances involved the Galway fans would explain it better than me..
    Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?

    Dead on there Martinho.

    The club have issues with the taxmen that need sorting, but they are expected to be settled by the end of the month

    It would be harsh on Galway seeing that Cork got a licence last year and still havent sorted things out .

    But were Fingal not denied a Prem Licence last season due to the fact that the pitch in the Morton is too small with no room for expansion?
