Well, that would definitely suggest that if FIFA and UEFA membership can be sorted out, Kosovo could well be ready to go for the start of next season.

im pretty ignorant, i thought it was tiny but must be fairly large to have 3 divisions operating within another country, no doubt (going by mike7077s explanation) the players who will play for the future cosovan (is this right?) team will be currently in the albanian squad, will they be allowed to change if they consider themselves cosovon (?) i wonder

| There are many Kosovar players abroad,mainly lower leagues of Switzerland and Sweden.Others are scattered all around Serbia,Macedonia,Bosnia & Herzegovina,etc.
And those Kosovar players who are currently playing for another nation will be able to change their national team if Kosovo gains independence and forms its own national team.

But they didn't have any competetive fixtures.
I still don't think they have but I might be wrong.

Montenegro did indeed become independent in May 2006, and FIFA and UEFA membership followed not long after. Their first competitive fixtures will be the World Cup 2010 qualifiers, the first qualifying programme for which they are ready for.
