Yup was Limerick 37 last year, Limerick FC this year. When the club went into financial difficulties a few years back they lost there license or somet and when Jack McCarthy saved the club they had to choose a new name ie Limerick 37. The club got back the right to use the name Limerick FC this year however and have reverted back to same. Might be missing a few details here and there but as far as I know thats the general jist of it!

All Limerick 37 last year and the year before. Back to limerick Football club this year. Some publications/idiots have limerick being founded two years ago and in one paper a new club was founded this year :rolleyes: For the record, Limerick AFC 1937 - 1977, Limerick United 1977 -1984, Limerick City 1984 - 1992, Limerick FC 1992 - 2007, Limerick '37 2007 - 2008 and back to Limerick FC this year. Its the same club all the time only once was their a question of it being two clubs when Limerick United and Limerick city ran in tandom for a few months in the off season but gspain can confirm or rubbish my post as he knows better :)

Fantasic in all games hes played, new striker Cummins scored 2 from 2 before picking up an injury but should be back soon enough.

No he only got one against UCD. Played very well against Mervue before coming off though.

Also our result on the radio we where announced as Limerick 37.

Says in the leader yesterday that its not a break as orginally thought and is a bruised foot and he will be back sooner than thought. Does this mean sooner than the 4 weeks it was originally brought down to?? I'd presume so.
