    Unhappy eircom League Online Closes

    http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~jw/index.htm

    Its a shame that such a good resource for eL news and info has closed. Well done to Johnny Ward for keeping up such a good site for the last few years.
    As I say, we're just young & a bit nieve.

    For those of us exiled that site was more than a life line it was in many cases our life blood. Gone but never forgotten.

    It'll be hard to replace. I dont think any other site has a news section quite like it.

    JW's editorial is well worth a read. Good work.

    Thumbs up

    Jeez i take a couple of days off work & JW calls it a day. Something big broke last year when did the same.

    I suppose can't blame him for closing up shop as can only imagine the time & effort required to keep the site updated. I think eircomleague.net set the standard for the likes of the commercial sites to follow.

    btw would sometime in the middle of the WC be a possible better time for el fans tournament? after the 1/4 finals when less agmes on?
