Limerick To Be Liquidated

[Lim till i die]

Could have went with a less mortifying name.

Limerick Grumps
Delores O'Riordan FC
The Markets Field Bandits

All off the top of my head.

All better than the name they chose.

If they'd asked anyone who knows anything they'd have been told about the issues with just deciding to call yourselves Limerick United.

But, alas, Con and his little committee of whoever's know best.

I wouldn't cross the road to watch them anyway and I used to cross lots of roads to watch Limerick play.

[NeverFeltBetter]

Limerick Rovers. Limerick Celtic. City of Limerick FC. Luimneach FC.

You couldn't make this stuff up.
With O'Sullivan in charge it wont be long until Limerick United / Munster Football or whatever its called will be back in the courts again.
I would urge all LOI soccer fans in Limerick to get behind the new club & leave P O'S to it by himself.
In Cork we have a name for people like him.
It begins with an L & ends in r :mad:

If I was a Limerick LOI fan I wouldn't go to see anything which had P O'S involved in it.

[Martinho II]

I thought today that we would have known more about the applications by Shamrock Rovers II as publicised in the media and online.

[fc hammer]

You couldn't make this **** up. Unbelievable.

[gael353]

Disgraceful. Would the person or persons who pulled that name out of their arse please identify themselves. Where is the identity in this name?

[Treaty Gooner]

I like it!

[da bishop]

So Conn,s... bottom up reboot....has had some kick start ,no diligence work done on name branding before the big launch.Then a name announced that sounds like it was discussed at the last meeting of the parks dept at City/county council.Best of luck with that lads

[fc hammer]

I like it!
Of course you would 😁😁

[Shearer]

Who is it?

It’s a terrible name fwiw

Will Limerick , the team of Mr. Pat O'Sullivan be able to field a team, does anyone know if they are actively recruiting players or what is the set up at present!

Will it be an all amateur team with players assembled from local junior clubs!

Anyone from Limerick in the know!

[Mr A]

Things should be clearer (not necessarily clear) in the next day or two as licensing results come out.

[osarusan]

Limerick FC would find it tough to cobble a squad of locals together...fairly toxic brand with absolutely no good will of any kind towards them.

[NeverFeltBetter]

I doubt they've recruited anyone. Who would sign up right now?

[Zenith]

Plus no academy. Coaches or players.

[Mr A]

Just let the first 11 fans to sign up each week play

[NeverFeltBetter]

Just let the first 11 fans to sign up each week play

You might struggle to field a team on that basis.

Harsh :)

[Martinho II]

Dont forget lads there are two separate Limerick teams competing for the same licence?!

Thats not correct we tried to get Bohs shels and Pats thrown out because Rovers had the Dublin Licence but it was ruled out of order :)
Could be two teams from Limerick easily , we had 3 in Galway before.
Leaving aside a few simple things like Finance and Logic of course.

[Trainee]

Are licenses out today? Finn harps announced they got a premier license on Facebook

[da bishop]

Not any more afaik,announcement due soon,soap opera continues.

[Mr A]

Shels confirmed theirs too.

[sbgawa]

Not any more afaik,announcement due soon,soap opera continues.

Spill the beans , whats the story

[John83]

Not any more afaik,announcement due soon,soap opera continues.
Is this licence-related, or is one of Continuity Limerick and POS Limerick about to fold?

[sbgawa]

If they both get a licence the limerick derby will draw a crowd

[da bishop]

Forgive them lord for they know not what they do,having seen fit to making a b-lls of their first effort,they now do not the real meaning of their second.....do yee Treaty.

[outspoken]

Limerick United aren't applying until next season lads. I'm told Thursday will be when we hear more about licenses

[Scrufil]

I like Treaty United's theme song. It even features both the Seniors and Youths training. Not sure about the choice of jerseys, they look skin tight...

[osarusan]

Today is licensing day, right?

Genuinely wondering whether Limerick will get one or not.

By any standard, they should not, but you have to wonder if the FAI have the stomach for the fight O'Sullivan would put up.

[sbgawa]

I think the "new fai" will have the stomach compared to the old one.
The last thing they need is Limerick starting up and folding in 3 months when POS can't find someone to invest the kind of money you need to run a team properly.

This is the opportunity for the NEW FAI to show whether they are new or not.

[blueblood]

What's the feelings among other Limerick FC fans? I have my fingers and toes crossed that Limerick fail miserably and are refused the license, I probably won't attend games if the club does get a licence and I'd say nobody will attend IF they get a licence.

[Martinho II]

Dont know if anyone saw it but there was a great piece by Aidan Fitzmaurice in Herald and Irish independent saying that there could be six clubs that could not get a licence at all. Athlone didnt send anyone up yesterday so I wonder could they be in trouble also?

If they get a licence I'll be at every home game and as many away as I can, same as always.

[NeverFeltBetter]

I'd accepted the death of POS' Limerick FC, and I'll admit the thought of supporting the zombified corpse as it shuffles along gives me some pause. The only thing that will make POS give up is for the club to fully die, and paying into games, even if it's my usual handful owing to residence elsewhere, only slows that process down. Will probably still try and make some Dublin away games though.

[da bishop]

So the Treaty [utd] is broken,what a farcical embarrassment they have been in their short existence ,the judgement[lack of] shown by the people involved messrs Conn Murray/Tommy Barrett will cling for a long time to come,next chapter please.

[sbgawa]

Limerick fc tweeting tonight looking for players in all age categories .....did they get a licence?

Was told last night they were hit with more legal letters and that pulling out was on the table. Looks like that was the case. How a group of people can't get together and sort this all out is incredible but it's Ireland all over, toxic and self interests above all.

[Mr A]

It's all just such a massive mess. https://www.irishmirror.ie/sport/soccer/league-ireland-first-division-crisis-21446069.amp?utm_source=twitter.com&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sharebar&__twitter_impression=true

[Trainee]

Limerick utd/treaty utd have withdrawn their underage application. Limerick Fc have till next Wednesday to have u13 through to u19s in place after they appealed their license refusal.

[NeverFeltBetter]

Who are the other clubs without licenses?

[Trainee]

4 clubs will get licence's as admin errors have been sorted, these licenses will be rubber stamp on Wednesday. Don't know who 2nd club that were refused a license & made an appeal.

A lot clubs came out online saying they got a license so im sure we could find out who 6 clubs are

[Zenith]

Well that's effectively killed underage LOI in Limerick for 2020 then.

[sbgawa]

Limerick fc were looking for applications for under 13's on twitter last night.....got a predictably positive reaction :)

[NeverFeltBetter]

John Grehan roasting the club and POS on Twitter last night. Claim's the chairman tried to strand him in Sligo at a game last year.

A parent would have to be awful thick to let their child sign up with POS' Limerick after what happened with Sean Russell.

[Lim till i die]

John Grehan stood over far worse ****e than someone attempting to strand him in Sligo last year.

A Pat O'Sullivan man to his fingertips

Until the day he wasn't.

Indicative of the quality involved in Treaty United (RIP)

[Guitd]

What’s happening with the ladies Wnl teams does anyone know
