Should be a good game. Not the strongest of opponents but should give us a better understanding of where we are than the Mervue game. Weather is lovely at the moment so hopefully that will spur an extra few to come to the game and give the lads support. Can see a 2-0 win here, Hopefully. Manjur to get the second :eek:. Hopefully ye all bring yer vocal chords intact for this one!!! Come on the Super Blues!
Limerick 2-1 Athlone
Hopefully we'll have Colbert back as well as Davy Ryan. Sould be a stronger team starting this week so i'm optimistic about the win.
3-0 Limerick, in front of 600+.
I'm predicting 1-0 to the Super Blues, John Tierney to score.
8-0 Limerick. You heard it here first :D
Shall reside towards the back of the shed for this one, and try to get in on the singing lads.
I'll be at the back of the shed too singing up a storm. Then onto the Still house for a few sociable, quiet ones after. Tis good drinking weather!
What time is kick-off for this?
7.45pm.
Have convinced another 2 friends to come along for their first game tonight. Will soon get the whole of Castletroy in lads... :D

Poor enough match tonight. Boring as hell, just like the last two home matches against Athlone. Davey Ryan came on and missed a sitter, i think it was harder to header it over than in the back of the net, no fault though, was just the way he caught it. Athlone fans where beaming with their no score draw which i was dissapointed to see. The only thing they should take from it is there solid defense, barr that it was a pretty depressing performance by them and they had no interest in really winning the match.
The sooner the whole squad gets together with a manager the better. The two lads are doing a good job but we need someone in with a gameplan for how he wants the team to play for the season.
Thought tonight was very poor, Limerick are not fit enough. In fairness Davey Ryan had three great chances and he will be the first to admit the header was an unbelievable miss, but at least he tried hard when he came on as i flt a couple of players just weren't and possibly aren't up to it. O Brien and Goggin are not good enough and when Wayne and Hughes come back they will be on the bench. We lacked any support for Tierney tonight and I thought we missed Cummins threat. As for the management yes they are doin an okay job but if MIke Kerley or anoter experiened manager was there then in the last 25 minutes we would have picked them off, there just didn't seem to be a Plan B from the sideline. Anyway we are unbeaten at home, decent crown in again and set up a big game against Shels. Interesting to see Jack and Pat Scully talking at the game!!!!!!:confused:
Are you for real? I wasnt at the game but from what i believe the game was spoiled by an over fussy referee and a field which resembled a football pitch. Would Limerick fans be "beaming" if they were playing away from home, down to ten men for the last twenty five minutes and came away with a point? Think i know the answer.Quote:

I thought Limerick were poor tonight anyway, bar Tierney who worked his socks off, Walshe who is too good for this league and Davy in goals who in fairness didn't have much to do. I know everyone will say that if we can't beat Athlone (who are very poor) at home then we're not going anywhere but keep in mind that we lost it(drew it) in midfield, a midfield that will soon have our proper partnership of Hughes and Colbert, then we'll see what we're about
Agree with you jebus,
Midfield is killin us.No direction from the centre and no-one there for the breakdowns.Jason and Wayne will make a massive difference in controling that area.was diaaspointed not to see us go for it when they went down to 10 men.They should have gone 3 at the back and thrown Danno up front as a target man. I think a good manager would have altered things at that stage. The pitch is awful and with Limerick trying to play a passing game(they have the players to do it) i think we'll do better away from home on better pitch's.
lads how come Mark Gough was in charge of this game,he is from Limerick after all,is this common practice in LOI,genuine question :ball:
1. The match was cat
2. The midfield was cat
3. Left back was cat
4. Leo is a big cat
5. I like dogs
Found that odd too, don't think it's common practice in the LoI eitherQuote:
