    He's clearly been played out of position. Instead you should be having a go at the manager and the club for not securing someone who can play in the position.

    What was this about?

    On the game itself, first half was woeful stuff.

    We showed a bit of energy and spirit in the second half though, Kenny in particular had a lot of energy about him. We still didn't have an idea how to break them down though.

    Is Cameron better then what we had? no
    Looks like its Robbie or whitehead to partner Crowe from here on in. Robbie didn't even have his socks on taking his place on the bench.
    Making the same mistake all the time (subbing tosi and then bringing on a right winger to cross a ball for the smaller O'Flynn)
    Kenny getting MOTM for ten mins running shows how **** the team were for the other 80.

    Frustrating night at the office. I hope the fella calling Clarke useless had a good look tonight. 2-3 brilliant saves.

    What did the media officer do?

    I was delighted with it, got it on my phone even. It needed doing and up you stepped by God and fair play to you.

    Shocking stuff again tonight, McDonald and the "board" need to come clean on the finance or lack of, to bolster the squad. Again no leadership or steel in the squad ... just basically hard to watch. Cobh will relish our cup game going on this performance ... expect them to come at us as if lives depend on it.

    Player private messaged a fan on Facebook abusing him tonight. Think fans have a right to be negative lately to be fair.

    The sooner the mystery investor takes full control and shafts the board the better. If anyone has a scintilla of evidence why any of them should be allowed stay, stick it on the back of a stamp. Mediocrity regarding every aspect of the running of the club has run its course .. Time for an honest appraisal before it becomes an autopsy .. the club is on life support and the natives are restless.

    Granted it is stupid and I don't know the whole story but if the fan abused the player and got it back then they have to be willing to take it if they dish it out. Players shouldn't be doing it but they are human at the end of the day and if one of us was abused we would probably react also.

    A few people have said MacDonald can't be judged until he has his own team in place and I think that's true. The guy has had some very high profile jobs and now has an assistant manager who also comes with good pedigree. They need time.

    On the signings issue, if they aren't signing players then they need to say why rather than just doing nothing.

    Even when he has been played in position he's cack. He should never have been signed. But when we have a legit left back I'm scratching my head why O Connor starts ahead of him.

    Unless it was personal over the top abuse then the player should keep his mouth shut tbh its not a case of oh if you can give it you can take it at all if its just a fan venting about a poor performance etc but if it crossed a line into something personal its fair game for the player to fire back.

    Do ye know the fan or is it just up on Facebook somewhere?

    Oh and the clubs own media man setting it up so that an ex manager who has himself and people connected to him been attacking the club on social media for years to be a guest on local radio for the game is beyond ridiculous. Some people wanna get their heads out of their holes and start acting some bit professional about their jobs at the club.

    Shane Tracy played most of his Limerick career in that position. Certainly a better choice than DOC.

    He'd get torn apart in the premier division. Better attacking-wise, but certainly not an improvement defensively.


    But really, we just need a new player in for that position. We don't have anybody who can even fill in there.

    No worse defensively either though and as you say better attack wise so the better option for me the current fella is barely a footballer.

    The fan had written on the limerick Facebook page that fans nearly deserve a refund due to the performances lately. Nothing abusive. He received a pm from the player. Calling him a moron and braindead. I seen them with my own eyes. Really not acceptable in my opionon. Fans have travelled all over the country this year at great expense to witness some pathetic performances, Galway away. Sligo away to name two. They have a right to be frustrated.
