[da bishop]

rumour tonight is that m.behan missing sat.he going on holidays it seems.good player and will be a big loss.

[Goals4fun]

Keith will be taking arisk if he takes and injection as he could do serious damage to his knee. It is not the best area to be messing about with. Mike behan is away on hols (what a sickner).
probable team IMO

Gilmartin- GK
Ryan- RF
Sheehan- LF
Purcell- CH
McGarry- CH
Boyle-RM
Wong-LM
Carroll - CM
Bourke-CM
Barry - CF
Heffernan-CF

Main decisions will be RF whether to play Ryan or Mescall and if Hartnett gets and injection whether to play him or drop one of the midfield who have been playing well....

In fairness theres no need for him to play v Wembley in the league as Pike will be too strong even without him and should beat Wembley handy.

That leaves the Touhy (which Pike claim to have no interest in winning, even though they played illegal players), so surely his last games should be the Lawson and the OT final.


as iv said before alan why play with illegal players if you have no interest in winning it,

[KilmallockYouth]

Heffernan should surely start!
He is the one of the top scorers!

[abbeyvale]

In fairness....what Keith does is his business (and Pikes) concentrate on Star and the players they field every week.


What he does also effects the OT and we all follow them, so it is my business.......cant concentrate on Star now by the way, coz our season is over......:rolleyes:

Playing with illegal players is cheating, regardless of what your opposition do, so best of luck to ye if ye win it............:rolleyes:

not the best of matches, i think a lot of nerves on both sides woith little football played.
well done to the desmond league on their win.

Anyone know if 'Magic' Mike Kerley was spotted out there?
How many at the game overall?

if he'd any sense he was elsewhere nobody out there was good enough for EL

200/300 id guess

[Monkfish]

He persists with Manjor, its obvious he hasent.

mike was there. about 800 at it. football was poor. thought shane guerin did well though when he came on and alan barry was good until he came off. also philip purcell - had a great at centre half.

[pearse4t3]

Poor game overall, Limerick districts back 4 were outstanding, D Ryan had a super game, the best chance of the match fell to Heffernan but he blasted it at the keeper.

Yes he was ....and Noel O'Connor :eek:

About 300 there.

[see's it]

300/800 whats the difference?;)
it was a terrible game with not an ounce of football played,i dont agree with the purcell comment got caught on the ball 4 or 5 times and when they tried to play offside he was running back keeping everyone onside.
midfield was poor,hartnett missed badly and i think jason purcell would of been a better option then burke
alan barry was very good worked his socks off,held the ball up and won alot of ball in the air its a pity he didnt have a partner,heffernan did nothing but lose the ball constanly...
what do people make of the bench? besides shane there was no options

[da bishop]

behan and harnett badly missed.desmond started well but after 20mins thought limerick well in control,cant remember desmond having a clearcut chance.limericks back 4 very good and well organised,but no creativty in midfield ,barry excellent but thought heffernan could have done more and should have scored.ryan should have freshend things up in et as it was there to be won,desmonds keeper man of the match.well done to them.

Would disagree with you about Ger Burke, thought him and Alan Carroll worked very hard but got very little, the ball by passed midfield. the wings were poor, Leo Wong was poor. I would agree with u about the bench thought Ryan had no options to change, like he brought Leo off and only had Shane Guerin to bring on the wing, where he would be better through the middle
