Limerick Premier Division 2012/13

[hotspur]

once again.......he was welcomed in janesboro when he signed and would always be welcome... the same applies to nearly 100% of players if the management want to sign them.. that goes for all teams within the club.

any other questions that i can help you with hotspur

Sure you didn't answer the first one??how do you know your management team would want him,?????

[oscar]

He was Athlone Town and got a few goals for them and did fairly well about a year and a half ago and now your saying he's not good enough for premier, crazy!:p but your entitled to your opinion:)

so what if he played LOI,that doesn't automatically make him a good player,i'm not slagging the lad i just don't think he's as good as people say and yes i am entitled to my opinion

[Hibs7772]

Well obviously if he played LOI and he scored goals and Did fairly well then the Limerick premier is a good step down from that so surely he would be well able for it ... but like you said yes you are ..

[oscar]

yes... i am

Ian Storan with Geraldines?

[Jofspring]

Ya Ian Storan, Lee O Meara if he is still playing junior at the moment, Shane Guerin (Ballynanty), David Njuki (Aisling?), Shane Waters (Janesboro).

Mark McGrath only played under 19 with Mervue. If 19's is included there is a fair few more around the league too. Dessie Fitzgerald (Moyross), Jack Allen, Dean Finnan (Geraldines?).

Open to correction on a few of those lads.

Cheers mate,

Anyone know if Conor Molan is still knocking about?
Is Brian Donnellan still with Fairview?

Also has Brian Buckley and Paul Harmon both retired from ball this year? Same question re Paul Finucane

Think Conor Molan was managing UL last year. Brian Donnellan is playing GAA out in clare, not sure about soccer. Buckley and Finucane have both packed it in as far as I know.

[Hibs7772]

Predictions:

AA 2 Pike Rvs
Fairview 2 Janesboro
Ballynanty 2 Carew Park
Kilmallock 2 Regional

Brian McGorrian and Jamie Egan both played LOI 19's, and Brian played Reserves, not sure if you just want first team or what?

[leedsfan88]

[leedsfan88]

Cheers mate, would it be OK if I posted a list of players and maybe a fill in the blanks about where the players are playing this year? I'm just looking for to do an update of the Irish Database for the Football Manager Series

Just a few other queries;

Jason Sheehan for Aisling, is that the same Jason Sheehan who was on the books at Boh's?

[WizardOnTheWing]

Wembley Dines off tomorrow night,just aswell because we are in free fall at the moment,between players away with work and apparently a few looking for transfers it could be a major struggle for us this season.Boro away in fai pike in the touhy things cant get much worse!!

And APPARENTLY passandmove who is looking for tranfers, if your going to make a comment like that you should back it up with names surely..

[Football MaD]

[hotspur]

[Hibs7772]

Corbally 2-0 Shannon Hibs

[thomas72]

Balla 2 Carew park 2, Jonathan Grant, Steven Grant.

IN a game we carew couldn't put 3 passes together all night have to be happy with the point carew went ahead after 50secs from a corner Jonathan Grant headed home. BAlla levelled on the stroke of half time with some very poor defending letting the ball bounce in the box. INto 2nd half and balla went in front another poor goal to concede from a set piece fine header. BEEN down carew kicked into life when Brian aherne came on caused balla A few probs carew levelled on 92mins with the official making a few bad calls for both teams first a corner to carew givin when it wasn't corner cleared out to carew player who was taken down in the box but was only awarded a free and from the free Steven Grant headed in a great goal.

[hotspur]

Corbally pike boro Carew and regional 12/1 worth €10..

your down a 10,

[Minesapint]

Carew park were shocking tonight lucky not to lose the match, some poor discipline didnt help.

[Minesapint]

Why was the pike game called off.

[oscar]

started late called off due to darkness

[thomas72]

Carew park were shocking tonight lucky not to lose the match, some poor discipline didnt help.

Agree worst I seen carew in a long time but credit to balla its a very very tough place to go and get a win. ABout the discipline there wasn't really any bad tackles a lot of stupid frees givin away in dangerous areas not smart against a team like balla scored there 2nd off one of them.

[dirtfree]

your down a 10,

Your kidding me ...

[Hibs7772]

[prawnsandwich2]

So what were the final scores in all the matches anyone?

view 2-boro 2
view went one up in first half.
had a couple of glorious chances to go two up in the 2nd half.
boro equalised and soon after took the lead.
fairview equalised with virtually the last kick of the game,with a great goal from scanlon from a cross by shane power.
fairview had a stone wall penalty turned down at 1-1 when mark mcgrath was taken down.
referee blew for a foul(from 30yards away) and pointed towards the boro goal,but pointed the other way when he realised that mcgrath was inside the box,and then booked mcgrath!
i lost count of the amount of cards issued,when a word with players would have sufficed in most instances.
fairview have now played what was considered to be the top three teams in the league,lost one(unluckily) and drawn two.
a very young squad,with the exception of colm heffernan(who was excellent),and have shown week in week out that they have the heart to keep going until the end of games.

Was the Carew keeper sent off?

[mrman]

no, he was substituted at half time. Gordan off, Ronan on, by all accounts Gordan was not a happy Lad.

so much for the View being relegation material

[Minesapint]

Boro look out of distance from winning the league, pike look more organised , players that pike brought in have settled better, why was the dines v wembley match called off.

[prawnsandwich2]

so much for the View being relegation material

hate to tempt fate my friend,but i did say that even though fairview had a young squad,they would be fine.
also think dermot's return has given the team and club a lift,that was badly needed.
9 of the starting 11 played underage football with the club also,which is great and also a credit to managers who gave their time over the years in the underage grades

Fairview 2-2 Janesboro

Last night demonstrated one of the things I love about football - that a better organised side can get a result from a much stronger side on paper. Finnan has worked absolute wonders with this Fairview side. Straight from the off they were pressing aggressively as a team high up the pitch and forcing the Janesboro defence into errors. Boro's starting shape wasn't helping matters either - a kamikaze old style 4-3-3 where the wide forwards were instructed to stay forward during the defensive phase. This led directly to the first goal after 5 minutes when View left winger Luca Tedde was totally unmarked and able to deliver a great cross which Wayne Colbert handled. Scanlon converted the penalty.

Halfway through the first half, Boro admitted their error and switched to a 4-4-2. They then started to dominate possession but struggled to break down a much better organised Fairview side who had a great defensive shape. Colm Heffernan in the middle was particularly impressive in this regard. Boro's choice of personnel was a problem too - Clarke and Doyle do not work well together. Clarke is not suited to playing as a number 10 and Doyle is not suited to playing as a 9. Clarke was constantly dropping off to receive the ball away from where he could be most dangerous. And Doyle was often guilty of not reacting to through balls and balls into the channels. Lynch and Clarke would have been a much better combo. Meanwhile Waters was on the left while Donnan (a central player) was on the right. Surely it makes more sense to play Waters on the right and Doyle on the left?

Clarke created something out of nothing for the equaliser early in the second half - a bicycle kick hit the bar and the rebound was headed in by Doyle. Fairview then strangely removed Madigan from left back and moved back the winger and the second goal came from his position as Doyle (now on the right!) got in ahead of him at the back post.

Then the pendulum swung in View's favour and by the time the equaliser came it was inevitable. Fairview went with three strikers and Shane Power, a sub, overlapping from right full, delivered a perfect cross for one of those three (Scanlon) to head in.

Fully deserved point for Fairview in my opinion. Only one side came with a plan and they executed it to perfection. The pressing wasn't kept up during the second half, but these are young players and that's understandable.

Boro are in absolute disarray. The number of changes in shape and player positions last night was mind boggling. The subs bench was questioning the management after only 2 minutes of play. Big changes are needed if they are to have any hope of success in the cups.

Your guess is wrong. I wouldn't be anywhere near good enough to write for that fine publication. ;)

Thanks for the kind words JS.

And it's reassuring to hear that Madigan wasn't taken off for tactical reasons.

No.. he has to be an accountant, with the amount of money involved
