LFC in Exile

For the players and management as much as for the fans. It was a long trip - and the players and fans didn't deserve an end of season like that.
The difficult thing is that any nay sayers can focus in on the Derry result and point to inadequacies in the club and the set-up. It may be the last but I certainly won't give up hope and stop trying to find solutions. I hope nobody else does. That would be a shame. I, for one, will never forget this season. If players are judged on ability, spirit, commitment, loyalty, skill and brains then the players assembled now are definitely among the finest sides ever to respresent the club. There have been so many positives this season in the midst of all of the negatives - sports people through out the country have noticed Limerick FC. The people of Limerick woke up to the team. This season has to be built on rather than seen as a swan song.
I know some players and management read this board and they should know that the fans are very proud of what they've achieved and how they've achieved it. They can't take thse achievements away and when the disappointment of Saturday night diminshes they should look back on a job brilliantly done.
