Limerick V Cork

:o I like! I like!

That means (If there is a lot of them and the weather is good) we "could" have 1500+.

I hope to God you're being extremely sarcastic?

[Xile]

No sarcasm, but there was emphasis on "could", Could being a possibility that there is always a chance of happening.


AKA Being unrealisticly optimistic.

[bluewhitearmy]

I hope to God you're being extremely sarcastic?

What info do you have that you know for sure it wont happen?
I've been told there will be Athlone and other fans up for the pubs that are going to go to the game.

[kevincronin2000]

What kind of attendance are ye expecting?

[bluewhitearmy]

Hoping for around the 900-1000 mark. But depending on how many if any fans of other clubs come up for the double header and the pubs it could be more.

Well done lads have to say great resut and im really looking forward to the cork game now, It would be great to see us raking up a nice few points early on in the season.
Nice interview from ex view boy duggie here from after game against mervue which he scored a hat trick in asking the limerick boys in the shed, for no abuse next friday night.

In fairness, who the fcuk does he think he is? he's a nobody to us and why would we abuse him?

Going to get it big time now.

He says he played for us all through underage?
We don't have underage teams.

Have you actually listened to the interview? He was asked if he expects stick and he says he hopes not.Sounded surprised by the suggestion of it so obviously he didnt think ye'd have any reason to abuse him.

[Monkfish]

So we brought him up through the ranks, took care of him as a youngefella and he fecked off to the bright lights as soon as he got the chance?!!!!!

My blood is boiling now!

[A face]

Another hat trick would do nicely actually ;)

[Monkfish]

He'll do well to get it with the outrage he's created, hostile crowd ready and waiting.

(good player tbf)

Bright lights of UCD :D

[Monkfish]

Bright lights of UCD :D

Dublin > Cork tbf :cool:

[gspain]

I don't think Shane played for us but could be wrong. He went over to Plymouth quite young and then on to UCD. His father Gerry was a decent player with us for many years and was part of the league winning side of 1980.

We'd have no reason to abuse Shane. I'd love to see him come home soon.

[micls]

Dublin > Cork tbf :cool:

Now you're just being silly.

[Monkfish]

Now you're just being silly.

Me? never.

Any local lad who pulls on an opposition jersey (let alone a Cork one) and comes to Jackman Park trying to beat us will always get a bit of stick.

Exept Gary, we love Gary we do, wasted talent, come back Gary, all is not lost, not yet anyway, another few months of Noels total hoofball and your a gonner, c'mon Gaz, Gazza, the Gazzster, DJ Gazzy Geff! c'mon!!!

[osarusan]

Seems like it's gonna be pi$$ing rain all week.

I know Jackman isn't the best surface, but how does it stand up to serious rain? I can't remember a game being called off there.

Its usually ok (too much sand) but at the Longford game the middle of the pitch had a nice bit of surface water.

Bloody snowing now

shane is a great lad and a very good player prob too good for the first Division having said that i think it will be a close game two very young sides ill go with a draw.

Limerick 2-1 Cork Att: 1,100

Hopefully there is a good performance put in and we get a result in front of a big crowd. Too many poor results over the years when the crowds come out to watch.

I'm worried about this aswell. Yet again, I'd rather have them on there, just for the sake that if they win, there's more there to sample the match and the atmosphere..

[LK37oldskool]

The weather for friday looks very bad,i wonder how many will stay at home and wait till 6 to come out on friday.Limerick seem to have no luck with the weather when big mtach's come around.

Even so there still might be a big crowd, not to mention merchandise such as Hats/Scarves etc. will sell very well, not to mention Stand Tickets.

[ped_ped]

So if I want a place in the stand, should I be getting my ticket tomorrow/Thursday?

Ye could make a killing selling plastic ponchos!

Hea all, there is no parking at the venue this friday. parking in many of the cities car parks as well as on street (away from the ground) is an option...but walking to the venue is best. Come early, do not arrive down at 4:25 and wonder why ur in a que. Tickets will be on sale outside the ground and not from the avenue (as per smaller games) Hot food from the chip van as well as refreshments from the supporters club shop at etiher end inside the ground. There are a limited number of consession stand tickets (child) so first come first serve.

There should be parking across the road, from what was said earlier anyway, there SHOULD be.

So don't take it as 100% that there is, but assume there is aswell.

[bluewhitearmy]

Game could be off with the weather Jackman was in an awful way a few days ago.

Hey Gael, Just a quick one for you..I read last week on a local newspaper that the council were looking for ideas to make use of the wasteland across from JP that used to be the area used by Guinness, would this not be a good parking lot for large home games for LFC?

It probably has some red tape attached, but it was just an idea........


See you Friday.

LFC 2-1 CC

[razor]

Looking forward to visiting Limerick tomorrow.
I'm bringin the waterproofs.
I'm presuming the pubs around the ground will be opened after the match.

[Monkfish]

Game is off as it stands lads, Fairview game off too.
Official announcement yet to be made.

[LK37oldskool]

April Fool Monkfish ?

[Monkfish]

Pitch is in ****e lads, no official announcement yet so keep an ear out, i may be wrong (hopefully)

[Xile]

Well there hasn't been any word of it out here yet, So As it stands its not off - But it will probably be Ralph who will call it in if anyone, So we'll just have to wait.

Fantastic if ye do bring around the 300 mark. Should push our attendance to at least 1,100-1,200 :good:

Have to laugh at one line in that preview of the game on extratime.ie "though it would be unsurprising if the away side support out numbered those in Blue. It will become standard fare for both Cork and Derry to outnumber other sides away from home this season"


Cork would need to be bringing about 600 to 700 at least to out number the home support and according to Derry fans they have only had small support at away games in recent years, 60 or 70 max at Jackman a couple of weeks ago.
