I've no wish to offend anyone, but I'm getting a bit sick of hearing from whingein 1st Division clubs declaring "won't someone please notice us". God helps those who help themselves.
As for the guy mentioning comparisons to the blueshirts ambivalence to Ireland's homeless epidemic, you should be ashamed.
Ouch!!
God and blueshirts references ffs its football sometimes i despair.
I don't see how rovers B having a youth squad only will solve this problem. FD clubs have been clear they see the entry of a reserve team as cheapening the division and don't want to be in a league in a few times which could be 50% made up of reserve sides (dundalk & Pats have made sounds about it in the past). Speaking to a lot of fans of late and many don't see the league starting on time
9 days to go until the supposed start of the First, any update on what is happening? Seems stupidly quiet given how close the league start is
I think the 6 clubs that weren't awarded licenses last week had until today to rectify any areas they were failing in.
Johnny Ward has tweeted to say as far as he knows Limerick didn't apply in the end and the first fixtures released will be the official ones with rovers B included. If that's the case it's over to longford town to decide whether they set the tone and boycott or whether the clubs just roll over and accept it
I'm going to say they'll do the latter when push comes to shove. Why risk a points deduction which could harm their promotion chances when there's no guarantee the other teams will follow suit? Personally I think the "insult" is overblown. I wouldn't like to see half the division made up of second teams though.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
I'd say after all the uncertainty & problems behind the scenes everyone just wants to get season underway & put this behind them
Athlone in trouble too, according to a reply to Ward's tweet.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Cabo pull out using this as a smoke screen, it has been a failed experiment.
The BS going on with clubs in the first division scrambling to get licences really does make the claims from the likes of Cabo that the leagues integrity is at stake over allowing Rovers B in really is comical
Just scrap it and promote Longford imo
Saw article somewhere with Cabo they nearly merged with some team altogether and were going to pull out. Wonder was it Bray considering Pat Devlins connections?
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
First Division going ahead as originally scheduled.

"all applicants"
That seems to confirm that Limerick didn't apply in the end.
