Vikings awarded club licence

Dublin City have been awarded a First Division Licence for the forthcoming eircom League season.

The Vikings received their Licence on Wednesday afternoon after supplying the FAI Club Licensing Department with the one piece of legal documentation missing from their original appeal heard last week.

Dublin City’s success at receiving a Licence means that Longford Town are the only eircom League without a Licence though the FAI Cup holders are confident of having all the relevant documentation by Thursday.
