In 2021, on the resumption of the League following the break enforced by the COVID–19 pandemic, this team planned to move to the Shamrock Bar. But shortly before the season was due to start, it became clear that they would not be able to field a team on a regular basis, and they were forced to resign. They kindly agreed to set questions in Week 2 of the 2021–2 season, which was their appointed slot; they also provided the questions for Round 2 of the Cup competition.
