Trim Celtic have applied to join the new 3rd tier.

Great news, the FAI must be delighted with the interest in this new venture.

Good to see a public declaration from a club in Meath but mildly surprised it's Trim Celtic as they don't seem to have any spectator facilities (bar maybe the clubhouse?).

And speaking of spectator facilities, has anyone heard if Arklow Town applied? They seem to check a lot of boxes, especially for facilities and fielding competitive teams.

I share your surprise re Trim. Their facility is pretty basic and quite a bit out of town as well, so they're not exactly in the heart of the community there.

If anyone has a chance of establihsing a county-wide support base in Meath, it would really have to be a Navan club. Trim is less than a third the size of Navan, so I donlt think has the ingredients to become and remain a senior/LOI team.
