Sure look if it's gone it's gone. Like the A Championship, it's a tough market for new competitions to try and become established. A lot of the chopping and changing of format did the competition no favours. Maybe a LoI XI could take on an IL XI home and away? On this subject, I'd like to see a LoI XI take on a ROI B team as well. During Mick McCarthy's time there was two ROI B v LoI XI games.
Getting somewhat back on topic, with the Setanta Cup gone, maybe the League cup could adopt a group format, giving teams 3 group games before the LoI season kicks into full swing.
