Within the Premier Clubs Association??
Whoever they deem fit as members. Probably be some Premier Clubs..
This is all completely off the point.Have you ever been at a gathering of different clubs? My experience is that the vast majority of clubs have things they do very well and that the others can learn from. If we do need a league with at least two tiers (and I've never seen the UEFA rule that says this in fairness) then all clubs are needed to keep it working even at its current level. Focussing just on the top has been what has always been done and has got us nowhere, except a league of diminishing numbers. All very easy to take cheap shots and slag off clubs- but just keeping a senior club going is a hell of an undertaking and survival is an achievement in itself.
If clubs want to talk to one another about the various daily minutiae of running clubs (which I'd be far too familiar with for my own good) then that's great. More power to them all.
That is completely different to a group advocating to the FAI. Which is what the PCA is.
And I'm not slagging anyone or taking any cheap shots.
What I will say is that you're either being disengenuous or naive.
Because I maintain that it's an insult to anyone's intelligence to suggest that the vast majority of league clubs have anything to offer in any discussions with the FAI.
Because in the vast majority of cases the opinion of the club will be whatever opinion the FAI have told them to have.
Because the vast majority of clubs are bought and paid for or over a barrell.
Is the Finn Harps delegate (and I'm only using harps as an example because your a harps man) going to go up to abbotstown and put it up to John and Fran?? He is in his hole.
You've a load of people on here howling about being excluded from something their clubs boards would run a thousand miles from.
