[*1] full official name runs 'St. Patrick's Athletic incorporating St. Francis';
     the club had 9 points deducted due to fielding an ineligible player (Paul
     Marney) in their first 3 games of the season, but this decision has been
     revoked upon arbitration, and Shelbourne's appeal against that thrown out
     by the High Court;
     on March 22, they had 15 points deducted for playing Charles Mbabazi 
     Livingstone in the first 5 matches of the season in spite of not having 
     registered him until September 12, 2001;
     the merger between St. Patrick's and St. Francis collapsed during the
     season.

[*1] full official name runs 'St. Patrick's Athletic incorporating St. Francis';
     the club had 9 points deducted due to fielding an ineligible player (Paul
     Marney) in their first 3 games of the season, but this decision has been
     revoked upon arbitration, and Shelbourne's appeal against that thrown out
     by the High Court;
     on March 22, they had 15 points deducted for playing Charles Mbabazi 
     Livingstone in the first 5 matches of the season in spite of not having 
     registered him until September 12, 2001;
     the merger between St. Patrick's and St. Francis collapsed during the
     season.

[*] Waterford United had 3 points deducted for playing Noel Hunt on
    March 3 against Dublin City.  Both Dublin City (who want the match
    replayed) and Waterford are appealing the decision; Waterford had
    loaned Hunt from Shamrock Rovers, but returned to play one league
    cup game for Rovers and then came back to Waterford, who subsequently
    played him in 4 league matches before the one against Dublin City;
    they got the point deduction because Hunt couldn't have played until
    20 weeks after returning from the league cup game (according to the
    rules) but received permission from the league to play him anyway;
    Dublin say they are protesting against another supposed rule infringement,
    namely that Waterford were to renew the loan at the start of each month,
    which apparently was not done, and their match versus Waterford was
    the first in March.  Dublin City finally withdrew their protest in
    mid-April. 

NB: only 9 clubs due to incorporation of St. Francis in St. Patrick's
    Home Farm Fingal changed name to Dublin City

[*] Waterford United had 3 points deducted for playing Noel Hunt on
    March 3 against Dublin City.  Both Dublin City (who want the match
    replayed) and Waterford are appealing the decision; Waterford had
    loaned Hunt from Shamrock Rovers, but returned to play one league
    cup game for Rovers and then came back to Waterford, who subsequently
    played him in 4 league matches before the one against Dublin City;
    they got the point deduction because Hunt couldn't have played until
    20 weeks after returning from the league cup game (according to the
    rules) but received permission from the league to play him anyway;
    Dublin say they are protesting against another supposed rule infringement,
    namely that Waterford were to renew the loan at the start of each month,
    which apparently was not done, and their match versus Waterford was
    the first in March.  Dublin City finally withdrew their protest in
    mid-April. 

NB: only 9 clubs due to incorporation of St. Francis in St. Patrick's
    Home Farm Fingal changed name to Dublin City

Elected to First Division next season: Kildare County (playing as
Newbridge Town in the Leinster Senior League and keeping their place
there by sending a 'separate' club in the league.
