You should be grateful we have such fine referees operating in all our leagues in Cork
Thanks FIFA, you are our master!
All a matter of opinion.
Does anyone know the plan or is it hush hush ��? The Government have set the road map on the road to recovery with the earliest time of 20 July for a return to soccer have the Aul a plan in regards league and cups ? Or even a blue print to work too so clubs have an idea .
That be talked about over a nice pint no doubt in the luxury hinekin room all free just how ted likes it

The Football Association of Ireland’s steering group has made a submission to Sport Ireland seeking clarity on conditions around the return of amateur adult and underage football following the publication of the Government’s Roadmap for Reopening Society and Business in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.

I think they should try and complete the season if possible . Give people something to look forward to . I dont think many people will be going abroad on holidays this summer. if they could run this season until say September/October provided they were able to start in late July? Maybe start the following season in March . Run 20-21 season as a single round league for the following season . Reduce the number of cups . Then maybe try running the 21-22 season as normal from August 2021?
I am just putting that out there as an idea
i heard that all teams applications to leave were rejected by the AUL . I do not know how true that is . On what grounds could they reject when clubs have been leaving the last few years?
AUL have no current plan, they've sent out emails asking for feedback.
I would love it to go back on July 20th to resume the league and cups if possible. I would far prefer to try and finish the season rather than a new season being stopped again.
If the season did not resume from last year, would the new season start in mind August as usual? If so, those voting no to league resumption would have been a massive cop out.
Assuming health and safety is fine and sport still has the go ahead, do you think clubs with little to play for/relegation trouble would look to carry on to get back to normal or try and not be relegated/save the bother?
To be fair clubs will need more information before going back to the aul.
Like when does next season being if this season is not finished and if this season does re start when will the 20/21 season start.
While I would feel sorry for any club doing well it will effectively be a new season there was very little games being played between December and March and then another 5 month break and then a rushed finish.
Plenty clubs have half their league games left
The logically thing is to start a fresh In early August
But I can fully understand why some clubs would prefer to finish it out.
Fair play to the school boys league for giving some clarity to the league situation, FAI announcement was last week and still nothing from the AUL. With the 6 clubs leaving no way the sections can be complete so they should just null and void the leagues.
Assuming that no more clubs/teams fold its a chance to fix the sections. This is based on league positions with games played and cup runs, 4 sections 10 to premier, 1st, 2nd section, 11 in the 3rd due to number of teams, just my opinion. Might be a few miss matches in the 3rd but what can you do! As Steve said no need for a premier A any more with 40ish teams left.
Premier
1 Bohemians 2 Coachford 3 Glenthorn Celtic A 4 Grattan United 5 Knocknaheeney Celtic 6 St. John Bosco A 7 Glen Celtic 8 Temple United 9 Village United 10 Greenwood A
1st Division
1 Rathcoole Rovers 2 Tower 3 Waterloo 4 Corkbeg 5 Donoughmore Athletic 6 Springfield 7 Central Rovers 8 Dunbar Celtic 9 CFC Banteer 10 South Coast Athletic
2nd
1 Blackpool Celtic 2 Cathedral Celtic 3 Kilmichael Rovers 4 Rylane Celtic 5 Strand United 6 UCC 7 Castleview 8 Grangevale 9 Hibernians 10 Knockraha
3rd Division
1 Blackstone Rovers 2 Bweeng Celtic 3 Cloughduv Celtic 4 Glenthorn Celtic B 5 Killumney United 6 Richmond 7 St. John Bosco B 8 Ard-na-Laoi 9 Churchvilla 10 Los Zarcos 11 Watergrasshill United
Well thought out and presented Dr Foot, but im thinking some teams would want to be higher, eg Kilumney and Glenthorn B in Div 3 and a few in Div 2 . I know its because of less divisions but fellas ego's would be hit!

Not perfect I know, some division 3 teams could possibly be good enough for 1st but unless 7 to 9 clubs join (or stay) I can’t see how you can justify another division.Well thought out and presented Dr Foot, but im thinking some teams would want to be higher, eg Kilumney and Glenthorn B in Div 3 and a few in Div 2 .

If it would soften the blow to people’s ego you could always keep premier a and call the bottom division 2 might soften the blow either way it will be the bottom division!
Castleview,Grangevale,Hibernians
Knockraha all higher then Killumney in the league at presset that’s why I put them 2nd division. Glenthorn b shipped a few Heavy defeats before all this covid despite a good cup run.
Kilumney are not a 3 rd div club or in stature recently started to get back to former glory...they have the pull to get big signings.won a double before all this and are team of year ...
they are currently in the 4th tier, so they are not moving just no division behind them. its a matter of opinion, i know they are a good club and have done a great job rebuilding since reforming I'm not on the committee (nor will i ever be) of the AUL so this make up is never going happen.
Nice suggestion, it will be hard to go at it again next year against the same teams that you're competing against or thought we'd seen the back of!
I was impressed with your thoughts and presentation and I agreed with all off it except the kilumney 1 ..big credit due to them out of aul and prompt return ..wheres crescent ..ballyvolane..ect ect gone so there back and are team and management of year.and a double ...like I said great credit due to all involved.
October 18th new season begins aul Dublin remainder of the season cancelled.
