Cork City refused Premier League licence

Cork City wont play in the Irish Premier League this season after the Football Association of Ireland decided to refuse their application for a top-flight licence. Derry City were also expelled from the Premier League in November after breaking regulations by holding secondary, unofficial contracts with players. However, both teams have been granted a licence to play in the First Division. In relation to the third European spot reserved for a League of Ireland club in 2010, Cork and Derry are replaced by the next team in the league Dundalk.
