Harps Away

[bluewhitearmy]

Tough one this they have improved big time according to reports.
We have to win games like these to stay in the hunt for promotion. I just hope that extra time on Monday hasnt taken too much out of us.


Ryan


Kelly.......McCarthy.......Purcell......Frost

............O Leary...........Gamble.............

Gaffney...............Tracy..............Brosnan

........................ Behan..........................


Some people would probably prefer Judge then Tracy but i think Tracy had a great game against Cork and think that with his crossing especially from set pieces he would be better to have on with Behan up front.

Even though he played well against Cork id have Judge and Tracy ahead of Quinn he just hasnt done it enough for me this season but Scully seems to love him so he will probably start.

Having John Frost and Shaun Kelly back makes us far more solid and i think that will help us just nick this one.....1-0 Limerick.

Harps is always always a tough away game. We should be going there with confidence and a professional attitude though.

With Gaffney, Kelly and Frost back into the starting line up we should by right be too strong for Harps. Shane back too and playing excellent in centre mid is another boost. Throw in that Judge is back from suspension and O'Leary back from injury and we have a really strong squad going up.


Predicition: Harps 1-2 Limerick.

[sadloserkid]

I'd definitely start Judge I have to say, think he's been a real dynamo all year. I'd be slow to drop Quinn too, he's our top scorer in the league and definitely has an eye for a pass and the potential for a bit of class that some of his rivals for a starting spot lack. It's a nice complaint to have for once though, having almost too many options!

As for the game... head says 1-1, heart says Limerick to win by a goal. Fingers crossed!

Greatest line in the history of journalism in that article:


While Limerick possess notions of upperosity,

Come again?!





On the game I'll go:

Ryan

Kelly
Purcell
McCarthy
Bhandaker

Gamble
Tracy/O'Leary (fitness is the question here, that pitch is normally a bog and the weather isn't great)

Judge
Quinn
Gaffney

Behan


Last month Harps lost 3-0 at home to Shels and 2-0 at home to Cork.

We should be winning this one......

[bluewhitearmy]

Great chance to close the gap now after the result in Cork.

Really didnt see that coming.

Have to do our job now tomorrow.

[nigel-harps1954]

Many of ye coming up for this? Looking forward to it now. We're on good form but by all accounts you should be beating us by a goal or 2.

[leedsfan88]

I can't make it, but will be following the game via @busyliving_ on twitter...does most of the limerick games.

But i've heard there is a bus of 16 heading up and a few cars...not 100% sure tho

[nigel-harps1954]

There will be live radio commentary at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/finn-harps-radio for anyone who can't make it.

Anyone have a report on the game?Who scored?

[Jofspring]

Shane Tracey scored and missed a penalty and Behan scored a freekick.

[bluewhitearmy]

Denis Behans free kick was the best goal ive ever seen. 40 yards out the ball didnt rise or dip just went straight as an arrow right into the top corner UNBELIEVABLE.

Thought Limerick deserved the win and could have won it by more. Harps goal was awful from Barry Ryan.

Joe Gamble is just absolute class i love getting to watch him play he always seems to be in acres of space....Behan played well put in a lot of work and looked very dangerous when Brosnan came on to partner him. The only thing id have a problem with from lastnight is that Hynes is definitely not a winger.

Hope Shane Tracys injury isnt his knee again.

[Lim till i die]

Hope Shane Tracys injury isnt his knee again.

Apparently he was just wrecked from the heavy pitch which was always a possibility before it.

It's an absolute crying shame Finn Harps didn't have a camera there Behans free was literally this:

But a good fifteen yards further out! Crazy Stuff!

Gamble takes the pee pee at this level, Rory Gaffney was brilliant aswell, Shaun Kelly looks a very, very, good player, 3 in 3 for Behan now.

Lot to look forward to over the coming weeks hopefully.

I was actually sitting right behind that goal for Ronaldo's free kick in Old Trafford, would love to have seen Behans goal though

[theboywonder8]

Good on ye,IF ye can beat the top teams now ye might even be promoted,a big if though,with those new signings their should be no reason why not,but then again this is limerick we are talking about.always let's their loyal supporters down.

[prawnsandwich2]

think the supporters have had an awful lot more good days then bad.
limerick are home to salthill devon with cork away to mervue(who are improving an awful lot) and monaghan home to waterford.
would expect limerick to win,but those other fixtures are tricky,especially in light of cork's last result.
confidence could have dipped a bit

might not be the correct thread but has anyone got any info on the limerick under 19's.
how have they got on in pre-season friendlies ,players showing promise etc......

Don't know about pre-season games but I do know a lot of them have been playing in A Championship games against older and very decent opposition which hopefully will stand to them when the u19 league kicks off.

[prawnsandwich2]

nice one...best of luck to them
