    I'd agree that their has been a lot of different impacts.

    Personally I think the troubles took the crowds away and now Sky keeps the crowds aways.

    The unfortunate thing today is, if you ask the normal joe bloggs on the street, a lot of them wouldn't even know what is happening in the Irish League.

    Although I am also aware their are many people interested in the IL but do not go to games

    I work with a guy who says if Irish League football was being played out the back of his house he'd close the blinds. "Supports" Liverpool. Pr*ck.

    Strangely he doesn't remember the time the Blues had Liverpool beat, but only for a dodgiest of dodgy penalties it ended 2-2.

    I remember that well. And we had some keeper on trial who just watched Robbie Fowlers penalty roll past him.

    Needless to say that was his last match.

    We've been saying the same thing about people's perceptions of the EL for years. The challenge is to get the stay at home intersted people of their butts and into the grounds.

    Apparently because they don't have a womens team was one of the main reasons as to why they have such a poor score.

    Well from what I heard it was something to do with the land which their ground is on being undervalued by whoever was assessing them which lowered their score a fair bit.

    If DC changed their name to Belfast Celtic would the past performances count their 14 league titles??

    If not are Coleraine being allowed anything for their past performances? Given that the original club went to the wall??

    Good question... However I doubt DC will ever change their name to Belfast Celtic. When they got promoted they made it clear they are not Belfast Celtic they are Donegal Celtic.

    They also stated they would get to the same level as Linfield and Glentoran. Can't ever see that happening though...

    I think the family of somebody who was a director at Belfast Celtic still own the rights to the name of the club and I think it would be too expensive for DC to buy them! Think its some family that owns a load of bookmakers!
