Dublin - Wexford 85.8 miles (further than Longford, Athlone, Monaghan)

Bit harsh, closeness to Dublin already cost Waterford and Dundalk a place in the Delaneyship

Anyway, how long is it since the expungency of Dublin City? Surely ample time to get a replacement in

The fact that they couldn't announce the full line-up of next season's shiny new league, not to mention they can't even commit to how many teams will be in the league does not bode well.

Actually, from looking at the FAI press release it seems to indicate that Wexford (or any other club) will not be ready to take their place in time for the new season and that there will be 8 or 9 clubs, depending on how Limerick's appeal goes.

The remaining nine clubs will participate in the First Division. They are (in alphabetical order): Athlone Town, Cobh Ramblers, Dundalk, Finn Harps, Kildare County, Kilkenny City, Limerick*, Monaghan United, Waterford United.
