[Jofspring]

Need to win this. Will be an excellent way to go into the break. Exactly where we said we'd like to be midway through the season.

I think it will be a draw though. 1-1.

[cheifo]

You obviously weren't in Ballybofey for the game earlier in the year Monkfish. :)

Our defence has improved but still give me a draw now and I will be happy.

[Sam_Heggy]

Gonna be a tough game to be fair.

We have come into a bit of form of late having won 3 and drawn 1 of our last 4 and kept 4 clean sheets on the way.
Kevin McHugh is coming into form now and is looking much mre like the player he was 5 years ago when he left the club as one of the best strikers in the LOI.

I reckon ye were the best side to come to Finn Park this season so far, although, ye were gifted 3 goals that day by a fragile defence, a defence that has sured up big time since.

I'm hoping for a 1-0 win but I see this as a scoreless draw to be honest.

It's the wifes birthday so I'll be missing this, sickened :(

[Castletroy_Blue]

1-0 to Harps, combined with a drenching of us all in the rain. Can't wait!! :(

10-0 to Limerick with everybody associated with FHFC consumed by locusts. We don't have locusts in Limerick...can try to arrange another plague type infestation for you though.

Great call pal.........what a goal from Harps tonight.

3pts and more of the same v Cork next, and then hopefully a bumper crowd at home to Waterford in our next home game.

[Castletroy_Blue]

Boyle you absolute beauty. What a goal. Nervy finish, very glad we just barely held on. Roll on Cork :)

P.S - What is going on with Davey Ryan's kicking? Most of his goal kicks flew out for a throw.

[cheifo]

Would be grateful if someone who was there could give a brief breakdown of Game. Cheers

I ALWAYS GET MY PREDICTION RIGHT AGAINST Finn Harps

______________________________

JOHN Boyle sent Super Blues supporters home smiling from ear to ear on Tuesday night at Jackman Park following the left-back's sensational winning goal in the 66th minute.

Although Seanie Kelly had given Limerick FC the lead as early as the fourth minute during their crucial Airtricity League First Division encounter with Finn Harps, the Donegal side fought back and scored an equaliser in the 43rd minute when Mark Forker cracked home a spectacular goal from 21 yards.

Limerick FC had enjoyed numerous goal-scoring chances during the opening half of the game, but Mark Forker's strike appeared to have knocked the wind out of the home side. During the intial stages of the second half Limerick FC struggled to find their feet until the 66th minute when Shane Tracy led a searing counter-attack. The ball was worked out to Daryl Kavanagh on the right flank, Kavanagh charged in field, but the striker's shot was blocked and half cleared. Indeed, there appeared to be little danger as left-back John Boyle moved forward. Little did we know that Boyle was about to blast a sensational 26-yard, right-footed shot into the top right-hand corner. An amazing goal and a goal which ultimately earned Limerick FC all three points.

The Super Blues will not be back in league action, due to the mid-season break, until Friday, June 25 when they travel to face Cork City at Turner's Cross. Their next home game will be against Waterford United on Friday, July 2 at Jackman Park. Limerick FC: Dave Ryan, Sean Kelly, John Boyle, Gavin Roche, Pat Purcell, Peter White, Daryl Kavanagh, Thomas Lyons, David McGrath, John Tierney, Shane Tracy. Subs: Stephen Hickey for John Tierney.

Cant believe I missed that goal last night.......

Unlucky Harps, deserved at least a draw.

Dont think so. Apart from the last 10minutes they were very poor for most of the match, although their goal was exceptional but very much against the run of things at the time.
Well deserved win for us.

[LK37oldskool]

thought it was a pretty good game overall,with 2 outatanding goals.When we get back some of our regulars there is going to be a real fight for places.If that level of performance could be kept up there's no reason why we should not be there or there about at the end of the season.
