    You'd be relegated by now if you hadn't.

    And probably wouldn't have been let stay up whether you liked it or not.

    I can see Longford losing a lot of players at the end of the season over wage issues, so kind of hope they stay up so we have one cannon fodder team next year.

    We have three must win games (Galway, Longford, Bray). IF we get 9 points from those I think we may have a fighting chance of the playoffs.

    Massive game for Waaaatherfurd this weekend, home to Bray. Longford are on a cracking run and have Sligo this Saturday, UCD have a misfiring Cork and United host Drogheda. Will be a lot clearer after those games, but reckon Waaaatherfurd are gone, and Longford will just run out of steam to pip Bray for 10th, but will have too much for Cobh in play-off final, with Harps coming straight up and Cobh beating Dundalk in play-off semi

    They have better attendences that many other clubs though...and to be fair any club would struggle having to play in the premier after preparing for the first division and only finding out a week before the league began!!!

    Like who ? Only UCD have worse crowds - and they cetainly add to the league in terms of performance and players.

    No other team in the Premier was literally relegated on the pitch last season either....

    Who in the Premier, bar UCD....?

    P.S. Nice displays.
    P.P.S. Why have you said 'they' rather than 'we'...?

    How frightfully gallant of you !

    All hail the noble Shels - taking one on the chin for the little clubs in the league...

    Actually, we don't even have the lowest crowds in the Premier.

    Whatever you care to call it it's not good for Waterford or the league. Waterford would probably have been challenging for promotion this year and could have entered the Premier next year with a redeveloped RSC on the crest of a positive feeling. Instead they're languishing around the bottom reaches of the Premier for two successive years and will possibly be relegated on the field in back to back seasons playing to a reasonably large stadium in the First next year.

    We have a hardcore support of approx. 500, hardly the lowest hardcore in the premier now is it? Our average over the last 3/4 years has been about 1000 which isnt bad considering the circumstances. Its not so long ago we had gates of 3 and 4,000+

    As for credentials for being a 'proper' football club I think that after 77 years of Senior football we just about meet the requirements

    We have a long and proud history, better than a lot of clubs and we dont spend money we dont have either. Hopefully in 2 or 3 years WUFC can be in that upper mid-table area of the league and building towards greater success. For the mean time we will have to be content with survival.

    Luckily for us, Cupcakes, it's not up to you, or Poor Student, who gets to be in the top tier.
    We probably will go down this season but we'll relegate ourselves thanks very much, so you can hang onto to those pronouncements from on high.
    Mind that inflated sense of self-importance if you're moving about near anything sharp, won't you.
