I know its great retaining players from last year but is there any news of any new signings considering that "90%" of players are out of contract. there never has been a better opportunity to put a really strong squad together.

Whats the point seen as you think we're only a decent mid table 1st division team,so why bother.:mad:

[Monkfish]

is there any news of any new signings .

Loads of speculation and rumour but anything thats confirmed usually goes up on the club site first http://www.limerickfc.ie/Home/home.html
then maybe the sc forum http://www.limerickfcforum.com/
after that the bebo site http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=2469402027
and then will filter itself through the facebook nonsense http://www.facebook.com/#/search/?ref=search&q=limerick%20fc&init=quick
and then maybe posted here.

Thats what this thread is for. :)

wooo. sorry there for upsetting u. dont let the reality of the situation get in the way of your rant.What would you call us? "Always challenging for promotion every year" when was the last time we mounted a serious challenge for promotion? what has been our final position been in the last 6 or 7 seasons? don't tell me oh next year is gonna be different. We dont know the answer to that yet. i hope so and hope that scully can put together a strong squad. I was the most optimistic Limerick supporter at the end of last season. Kerley had us playing great stuff from July to November that season and then it went balls up. (sorry for goin off topic dont want to bring up all that nonsense again)

In summary I think we need to seriously strenthen the squad in order to challenge for promotion and I dont think by just simpy retaining the players from last year will achieve this. Would you agree or do you think the squad from last year is good enough?

Thanks for that Monkfish. Apart from goin to the games I only come on to foot.ie for further info. cheers.

[bluewhitearmy]

I think its very obvious thaat we seriously need to improve the squad to push for anything. If we just keep last years squad we will end up in a worse position then last year.

[da bishop]

poor MK is getting some going over of late,i can remember a time he was the golden boy,the next great young manager working wonders with the players at his disposal and the football he had them playing etc,etc and plenty contributors on these forums were his greatest fans....now he,s like dust in the wind,poor fella.of course the squad needs new bodies,its going to be a huge season for limk and a very important one for scully.he has a full preseason,bigger budget,more professional backup,plenty scope to sign quality players and the bones of the squad he might want to keep from last season.last years squad was not good enough,just look at the league table,not pretty reading.

[joeSoap]

It's a massive season for Scully. It will prove how dedicated he is to the club, as I'm sure there is going to be a job offer or two going begging in Dublin ( Pats, Bray etc) or even a Premier job in Galway and if he wants to work closer to home or in the premier the temptation might be there. If he is totally serious about the job, and he seems to be, the budget he has, together with the benefits of a full preseason, and potential signings like Stephen O'Flynn would make us a serious candidate for promotion.

[Monkfish]

Signing on for a further 2 years is good enough for most people.

sorry gael your post is missing. ill put it back up for you so I can reply to you.

"BV i think you should keep posting as your whinging at the present set up and players at the club is funny. Kerley played fantastic football when a certain striker arrived. prior to that we got humped 3 0 in three successive home games by fingal, waterford and the longford under 21s. then the very striker who turned around our season and saved kerley from another disastor of one, wasnt offered a contract by said manager.
your summery is bland and obvious, any club which doesnt challange the previous year obviously needs to strengthen."

Im not whingeing at all. I only responded to L37oldskool because he kind of had a go at me. thats why my post was obvious and bland. I was trying to explain in simple terms to l37oldskool. In no way am I having a go at the club set up and players at the club. I was only asking is there any news on new signings for next year. Obvioulsy this is very hard since the season is just over and the majority of all players are taking that extra bit of time on there future it will be after christmas before we see any squads taking shape. i didnt take any of this into consideration

again not having a go. sorry if my post came across as me having a go at the set up of the club. was only responding to l37oldskool. From what ive seen the club is making huge strides in regards to progress since o'sullivan got involved.

[gael353]

Thanks for thatas i sure as hell didnt take it down. my posts seem to be getting deleted on a reg basis ever since i questioned the attendance figures on the main page.

Nothing official going around at the moment, just rumblings here and there. Thought they might have announced the signing up of a few more of last seasons players at this stage seen as a few have been announced already.

Ya if my source is correct four more players are expected to sign over the next day or so.

Declan Farmer is a good addition to the management set up. I knew him when he was involved a few years ago, and he is a genuine, knowledgeable guy.

Looking very good at the moment. Its the new players that people are most anxious to hear about but at the moment its great to see some of the best lads from last season staying with the club.

I think it is important to get the core of last seasons squad signed first and then build around them with new players for next season.

I agree. It also shows that players are confident in what is being done and planned so it might help bring a quality signing or two.

[oscar]

for the first time in years there seems to be a bit of stability in the club,and the people in charge seem like they're in it for the long haul,fair play

I think the majority of junior section would like Limerick FC to do very well and be successful. The small minority just come on here just to get a rise off genuine supporters. Should simply be ignored.

Is that new signings or some re-signing?

[da bishop]

ex premier players will only mean something if they are quality and they are what scully is looking for.we had several ex premier players last season and look where we finished.hopefully scully will get the players he needs to take us foward.

[thomas72]

i think scully will def.... sign defenders he was fuming with the defending last season it was driving him nuts granted we had alot of injurys in our backline but we still need serious strenghtening in that department.
if the club keep stephan o fylnn that would be a massive coup. also need a midfielder and a winger.

easy said than done i know ;)
