Cork City FORAS Co-op name change[edit]

Somebody keeps vandalising the info on their name change claiming they changed their name back to Cork City Football Club. This is not true as Cork City FORAS Co-op was the club's original and only previous name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.198.151.36 (talk) 01:09, 4 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Cork City and Derry City founding dates[edit]

Some mistakes with some of the clubs fact.

Derry City and Cork City are new clubs who were founded in 2010. This is factually correct as recognised by the FAI. http://www.independent.ie/sport/soccer/electric-launch-to-new-season-2082480.html

Same with Limerick FC who are just a name change from Limerick 37 FC who were founded in 2007.

Wikipedia needs to stick to the true facts and not the fantasies of some biased supporters.

Since this is not a new controversy, I have removed any founding years from the article to prevent further disruptions from either side. Constant edit warring about details just to prove a WP:POINT is WP:LAME. Both involved parties should consider themselves WP:TROUTed. --Soccer-holicI hear voices in my head... 14:07, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
There was a consensus reached on a different talk page. All three of the clubs mentioned state their founding dates as 1928, 1937, and 1984, and show these dates on their crests. It's better off just removing the dates from this page to put a stop to it, they don't seem to show them on other countries' league pages anyway. Hsetne (talk) 14:13, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Licensing mess and divisional alignment[edit]

Since Galway United were denied a Premier licence and Limerick only were granted a conditional First Divison licence (see here), does anybody know when the FAI will announce the exact divisional alignments (which would most presumably be two divisions of ten teams each)? --Soccer-holicI hear voices in my head... 21:58, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Probably not until next week because the clubs have five days to appeal the decisions of the licensing committee. Hsetne (talk) 19:23, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
One week later, we have a successful appeal by Galway United (see here), a 99.9 percent assurance that Drogheda United will stay in the Premier Division and thus a void spot in the First Division. I tried to make the respective amendments to the article; however, can anybody please add a sentence or two about the successful Galway appeal to the Premier Division teams section, along with the proper references? Also, does anybody know what will happen with the void First Division spot? --Soccer-holicI hear voices in my head... 16:14, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

League of Ireland players being deleted[edit]

A Plymouth Argyle fan has decided that most League of Ireland players aren't notable because the league isn't fully professional and players are failing both WP:NFOOTBALL and WP:GNG, players apparently only should have articles if they've played in fully professional leagues, even if their notability comes from playing in Irish football. He's started by deleting Shane Duggan, has moved onto proposing deleting all Cork City's players, and it looks like it will continue on to the majority of League of Ireland players. Most of the discussion is here. Hsetne (talk) 05:34, 30 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mass deletion is proposed here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mark McNulty (footballer) Hsetne (talk) 05:56, 30 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A Plymouth Argyle? Well I'll be deleting all of their players next season when they go bust! Xenomorph1984 (talk) 18:04, 30 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

premier Division table[edit]

Hello all,

I don't understand the premier division table. It shox 28 matches (and 57 points) for Derry and others clubs, but where is no such information on irsih times table and airtricityleague.ie official table.

Is it a fake table ? Matpib (talk) 15:07, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The table was wrong indeed; some IP editor updated the table for the August 19 matches without changing the update date as well (the parameter "u=" in the table footer), which eventually caused the error to happen. I have fixed it now. --Soccer-holicI hear voices in my head... 15:43, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
