LOI club fails to submit licence
Wednesday, 3 February 2010 21:55An unnamed League of Ireland club has failed to submit their licence application for the 2010 season, despite requesting extra time to complete the details.
The deadline for applications was last Friday and one club asked the Independent Licensing Committee (ILC) for three extra days to finalise their documentation, a request which was accepted.
However, the FAI have confirmed in a statement on the League of Ireland website that the application had not been received as of 5pm on Wednesday.
The club could not face punishment from the ILC as in 2008, a team was fined €15,000 for the late submission of audited accounts.
The FAI have warned that if the completed application is not received by 15 February, the day the ILC will meet to make decision on what licences are awarded, the club could face a much-harder punishment including demotion.
