is that like vennigoor of hesselink?
A patriot is someone who knows how to hate his country properly.
Why? What's the history?
The fai would be temporarily postponing the inevitable if they propped up Limerick Fc. They have been for years surviving on the edge with little or no support from the Limerick public.
If the manager loses the dressing room then the normal course of action is to change the manager.
Limerick FC have lost Limerick. Solution?
The best answer to that is to read the threads in the Limerick forum.
The FAI wouldn't be propping up Limerick FC or whatever new club comes to frutition. The FAI are doing two things. Firstly, they have refused the current regime a license and will not grant same under any conditions. Why? Because they want Drew out. I think most people in Limerick want that now as well. On top of that they have indicated that the club needs to be structured and run properly, which it isn't. The club has no board, no committees no democratic process. One person (Drew) has the run of the club, with 2/3 other trojan workers doing everything for little/no return. This is why we are where we are. No one man should have the run of a football club. But the FAI won't be running/funding any new Limerick.
Secondly the FAI are still negotiating for the lease on Hogan Park. Should they get it I presume they will develop it and will offer its use to any new senior club. It will probably also double up as a Regional Technical Centre, with FAI coaching taking place. Delaney has already mentioned a project involving disadvantaged areas that will be put in place. Which is the kind of stuff that the priest, Joe Young, will be happy with. And that's where the FAI's involvement will end, basically being the lease holder and operating a training centre/community projects.
Sounds like the FAI are actually doing something positive for once.
I can understand Limerick fans concern about their club but it's looking like they will have a secure well run club with a long term home by the start of the season.
That's the hope, but this is Limerick FC and the FAI we're talking about here, so I won't be counting my chickens......
Could this all leave the door open for a Polish eL club based in Limerick?

Why??
'of' is dutch for 'or'. Vennegor and Hesselink are family names that his ancestors in nobility could not choose between. Its like a double barrelled name.
so, no

The ground isn't the problem according to Delaney.
http://www.eleven-a-side.com/first/i...p?newsid=25855Limerick FC did not fail on the infrastructure requirements – they failed on all the other issues, legal, financial, youth development, the fact that there were outstanding fines and creditors and players who have been unpaid.
Are Shels not guilty of most the above too?
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
true, but to be fair thats a difficult call for the fai.. firstly they could do without the kind of publicity dumping the el champions would bring, and lets face it, rightly or wrongly theres plenty of journos waiting to write their next piece bashing the league and the fai... secondly, you could be guaranteed ollie byrne would have it in front of the high courts quicker than you can say, well, high courts! and frankly thats another thing the league can do without - another drawn out high court battle involving shelbourne and the leagues administrators.The ground isn't the problem according to Delaney.

the net result of these scenarios would be the complete undoing of all or any of the good done to the leagues rep over the last year or so, and more fuel to those who would call the el a sham league.
liscencing is one thing, but at this stage the fai have to pick their battles carefully, and frankly there'd be no winners in a show down with shels.
arent we all just magic little monkeys...
Hang on, isn't the licensing process confidential?The ground isn't the problem according to Delaney.

Delaney is not ment to have access to that information and he's certainly not supposed to reveal it to the media.
Soccer Limerick apply for UEFA Licence
Wednesday, 03 January 2007 10:56
A group calling itself Soccer Limerick have applied for a UEFA Licence to play eircom League football in Limerick next season.
The group, which is a consortium of Junior, Ladies, and Schoolboy soccer interests on Shannonside, have already applied for the licence.
An FAI spokesman confirmed on Tuesday, which was the deadline for expressions of interests, that they had received a number of applications from interested parties in Limerick.
The spokesman declined to comment on the number of, or identity of the groups involved, but added that the applications they received were 'very encouraging'.
Does this mean that this 'Soccer Limerick' crowd will be a complete new entity and that Limerick FC as we have known for 70 odd years is now confined to the dustbin of history.
Many clubs have folded & reformed under same or slightly different name in the past so I don't see much different. I beleive there was a Limerick United in the past...?
Limerick United, FC and City were all the same I believe just changed the trading company name, a bit like what ourselves did with Waterford AFC (1930), Waterford FC (1945) and Waterford United FC (1982). The same Club but different business entity.
Drogs are similar btw.
as in he hasn't had a hit single??
As far as my understanding goes Limerick FC are part of Soccer Limerick, just minus Danny Drew
