    Finn Harps (H)

    Huge game in Limerick FC's season tonight, as 10th-placed Harps visit without the likes of Gareth Harkin (suspended), Caolan McAleer (suspended), and Packie Mailey (injured).

    Full live audio analysis of this one, featuring Noel O'Connor, available at www.mixlr.com/limerick-soccer-live as always, for those unable to attend.

    Also, ahead of Shane Tracy's testimonial, I sat down with Limerick's longest-serving current player to chat about the past, present, and future: https://soundcloud.com/alan-obrien-9...th-shane-tracy

    His tweets yesterday certainly raised a few eyebrows. It's not really clear what he meant. With McAleer out we can't afford to lose him.

    I don't think he's left. He's just an incredibly strange chap who chats in riddles most of the time anyway. His Twitter page makes for interesting reading most of the time.

    Indeed, and a good test for McDonald too and his analytical skills. The teams saw each other so recently - will he have worked out a way through Harps tonight.

    It's a one goal game for sure. Good time for Berki to get his first, before McDonald takes him off after an hour.

    What I have been thinking about is the mentality of both teams relative to the table. Both teams need 3 points, but Harps need it that bit more. But enough that they'll come out attacking? Maybe not. Still think both teams will avoid the drop.

    Win this game, and we might be in the top half of the table. Win another, and we might be a point off 5th. Weird season.

    With a game in hand on Sligo, and playing them next at home in two weeks, that's quite possible.

    If Harps come out and try to play football they will leave big holes for the likes of Ogbene so can't see it happening.

    If I was them I'd be starting Houston and Morrissey up top. old fashioned lump it up. Shaw caused our centre backs awful problems with his height when Rovers did it.

    There's nothing to be said in defence of McDonald and Limerick for this. They can't convert, and stupid errors at the back hand the 10-man opposition two goals. And that's all Harps did going forward. What a clownshow.

    Still have Bray, Pats, Drogheda and Galway to come. Gotta get the points from some of them, and that'll only happen if the team remember how to score.

    Oh Dear.

    Will that team pick up more points in the rest of the season than the teams around them?

    The head says no.

    Break out the atlas for next year lads...

    Trying to fit Duggan into the midfield was the main problem. We had a decent run recently with lynch and Bastian in the middle. Putting. Lynch out wide was wasteful. All Duggan knows is to pass the ball backwards or lateral. He contributes nothing going forward.
    All that said it was a shambolic result and we're in big trouble now.

    Well I managed to catch most of that broadcast tonight, finally, and was treated to a picture so bleak unfolding between the two of ye, you hardly had the words for it O'Brien. It sounded truly awful.

    The highlight, if there was one, if one could call it that was you forcing yourself on the MOTM award and then taking credit, well, heaping praise upon yourself to be exact, lets face it, when your co commentator went along with you. The summariser traditionally steps from the commentators shadow once per outing, to announce MOTM, but you even had to have that. Merciless.

    Could have done with more of that mentality out on the green thing by the sounds of it.

    Mr McDonnell put his own interests ahead of the clubs tonight by playing his signing Cameron. Thus reducing us to 10 for the whole second half. Sack him dolan in for the last few games

    Before he puts his own side together ?

    Look its not going well, I agree, and the season has been written off again, with a start again next season vibe to things and his bet that we will stay up with what we have left in the squad is sailing very close to the wind. Its touch and go.

    But do you really want this club to be one that canned a guy before he put his own side out ?

    That guy certainly can't say he hasn't put his stamp on the side.
