This is them as it stands. They may have changed for the new season, not sure.

I wouldn't say that.
Also, out of curiosity what is the timeframe in the CIDP for the new stadium?

AFAIK they've been furiously working towards the Longford Town church gate collections, don't print any programmes, bus in a load of Dubs model but these things take time and in fairness to Pat and the lads they started from a very low base.

Didn't realise you and L.T.F.C were the same person.

I don't know you said you had something that showed we did if you show me them then we did.

Shels break even then or make a profit btw?

**OneForTheFuture** · 16/02/2011, 9:01 PM

I think I read Shels made a profit. Small but still...........

**gael353** · 16/02/2011, 10:00 PM

No.............as i said before limerick and before them limerick 37 made profits

posted this on the prize money thread. COuld easily be that the FAI are trying to get the money upfront from Limerick to pay for the court case too

It was put to me last night that there's a feeling within the league that the money saved by the FAI in prizemoney for the league, is being ringfenced for the LImerick friendly court case. The FAI statement at the time did mention the case would affect grass roots football (or similar).

INteresting thought. If the FAI are paying out less prize money than they get in affiliation fees, something's not quite right

The stipulation made to Limerick from what i believe was secured on the same day(Monday). Don't see why there is a delay in granting the licence. Surely it could have been given the next day and not have to wait till Thursday. Why the stalling?

**Dodge** · 17/02/2011, 9:29 AM

I'd imagine that might just be a question of logistics. Don't the licensing committee have real jobs? probably can only meet Thursday

**lfc at heart** · 17/02/2011, 9:31 AM

well to day is the day, make or break time

Very true. Well hopefully it all gets sorted today and the club can go back to concentrating on the season ahead.

**SkStu** · 17/02/2011, 2:40 PM

wow - not beyond the realms of possibility at all Dodge. Surely they couldnt sink that low, could they?

Limerick been given extension until monday due to 'third party' delay.

Interesting in context with galway's moans

Third Party Delay

Problem with the machine in the fudge factory?

**bluewhitearmy** · 17/02/2011, 5:41 PM

Id say it is because Pat O Sullivan is out of the country until Saturday or could just be a problem with transferring money ..Said on radio it was a problem beyond the clubs control so id say they have what they need just a little hold up.
