Will these 2 players save ye from being relegated?
Ryder is a neat striker and should score a few goals, and Carey is reliable, so you never know.

I am very surprised Graham went back to be honest as he was messed around a bit the last time he was there...Hope they won;t mess him about this ..He is a fine player and u can play him almost anywhere....Deserves a bit more respect!!

Please explain what way you think he was messed about the last time? if he felt that way, then surely he wouldn't have come back??
I do agree however that he is a decent player and can be played anywhere on the park, from in goals to up front, so it gives us more options.

He was in goals for ye a few years ago when ye had no keeper when noddy(i think his name is) never even bothered to turn up for matchs and then when he turned up graham was dropped to the bench and when he did get the few games up front and and he scored a few he was still dropped to the bench..Never really got a good chance with ye..Is it still the same manager since the last time he played with ye...Just my opinion??

Our keepers name is Nolly, and he only failed to turn up for 3 games all that season (the same season his mother passed away).
Anyway, When Graham did play in goals he played well, but never really wanted to play in goals in the first place and told the managment that he wanted to fight for his place out field when Nolly was available.
Graham did play up front and scored a few goals that season but also didnt train a lot due to work commitments, which resulted in him losing his place.
And yes it is the same manager as it was back then (the same manager that got us promoted 2 years ago and kept us in the Prem last year, when nobody gave us a chance of staying up).!
So before you go and say things like "he was messed around a bit the last time he was there, Hope they won;t mess him about this time and he deserves a bit more respect", you should look at (or try and get) the facts!!!.

You stated above that our keeper "never bothered turning up", when in fact he was excused.
You stated above that Graham was "dropped" when our first choice keeper was back, when Graham knew he was only in goal as "back up".
You stated above that Graham "deserved more respect", when in fact he received respect from all involved over the last two season's for helping us out when we were "stuck" for a first choice keeper.
And like I said, Graham would not have came back to the club if he was taken for granted the last time around.
You are entitled to your opinion but you came on here mouthing off as if you knew what you were talking about.
Opinions are one thing, talking complete nonsense about players is another.

no he wouldnt, grahams a handy player to have.
With the storm thats forecasted for Sunday. Are the LDMC going to have the sense to call off all games this weekend? Any games that will be played will turn into a farce

they probably should but that would leave teams facing fai matches not having played in three weeks - not ideal
ya but what good would a farce of a game be to anyone anyway

Only saying what the man himeself said at the time thats all boss...He was mouthing off the whole time about it to me when we play the astro turf....So it can't be complete nonsence if he said it himself!!!why did he leave in the 1st place so??

I say ye all have it wrong with graham........ as for havin more clubs than tiger woods can any ye really name them, gerldines underage star and abbey not bad when you look at the average so called club men in this town..... and fact he has probably spent more time on the star team weather it be sub to keeper to striker than any current squad member. Graham left abbey this time cause his heart was not in it with us and he was honest enough to say it straight out and left his friends to go back to star.... yes he got messed about with positions with star but it is his own fault and if were all honest if he just takes many peoples advice and got a little bit of propper keeper training he would be an excellent keeper even for premier league. and how many of you would feel the same if ye were covering players every week and then being left out....... as for how he progresses so far he has 10 goals scored for abbey and 3 penalty saves which is not bad for a {BARREL} player in any league........ I actually think he knows he is not good enough for premier but he is still trying to get back with star and play against the best in town. and I would find it hard to believe from anyone on this site that graham at some stage has not scored against any of the top teams in town which he has................ Were sad to lose him with abbey as he is a good organiser from team events and moral. i can see star improving a hell of alot over the coming months even if they dont play him and he sits on the bench.... even though he may not have as much tallent as most the premier players in town but he never gives up and has a big heart the lad just keeps coming back when every one slates him which he will again this season for star....... IF STAR KEEP PLAYING HIM HE WILL SCORE AND WILL BE A HANDFULL FOR ANY DEFENCE. star will stay up.... cause carey will help create a good team spirit which has left star this year. wait and watch boys

Yes, another 2 signings, not sure if Robbie will turn up but he'll have to fight it out with Nolly for the No.1 jersey,
In saying that at least we have 2 keepers now and Graham Carey as well if needed as back up, so we shouldn't be short for a keeper (like we were against Balla, Carew & Aisling in the league, this season).

Not sure if many of you know referee Gerry Kiely, but I have just been informed that he passed away last night (aged 53/54)
Gerry would have been one of the better referees in Limerick and was admitted to hospital two weeks ago, but sadly passed away last night.
I would like to offer his family, relatives and close friends, both my own and Star Rvs' condolences.

Well you did say "Star is probably the only premier team in town that would have signed him" and I'm merely stating that I'm sure there are other clubs in the Prem that would take him.

Is Sniffer back? He was a big loss last Sunday for Pike.

I thought the anti Pike thing was a bit much to be honest at the start ,even hoped it was just a little green envy but with comments like that I can understand where it stems from.
